Question on The Good Guys Delivery from Another Store

Unique1234 on 27/11/2021 - 16:21

Hi all, I am trying my luck as I was unable to reach the goodguys helpline after multiple attempts.
I was after a particular item on sale which was sold out in local store so I set my default store as another store(which had it in stock) which is bit far but within same state and added door to door delivery. I placed the order. Do you think it will be shipped from that store or will they still default me back to my local store and I have to wait for a long time until stock arrives
in the local store?

Thanks in advance !

    I would have thought if you can order it online, it shouldn't matter which store has stock

      I hope that is the case though I have a feeling they do delivery only from local store

        They will ship from the distribution centre but the credit for the sale will go to the store you selected, so any hassle with delivery will be handled by them.

    Not sure how the store with no stock will ship it, but hey its 2021… anything is possible.

      I hope they can deliver from the store I placed order from directly and not have to wait for stock to arrive at the local store.

        I think they can and will ship from a different store if its with a metro (city) location, but anything over 30 klms may attract a higher delivery fee.

    They'll prioritise delivery from the closest store, if it's not available from there they work their little invisible magic and have it delivered from a different store. Well that was my experience with coffee pods anyway, took a month and a half before having it delivered from a different store.

      Thanks , I guess I will wait and watch for a week or so. Otherwise might cancel it if taking too long. Their website seems very busy, I ordered couple of hours ago, can see payment cleared immediately but still no email confirmation of the order at all.

    A couple of years back I ordered some stuff at the Mornington VIC store and they delivered from Pt Headland or somewhere like that in WA. Delivery took a while.

    A bit of a long story but a few years ago (probably 5) I ordered a screen cover for an ereader for $5 on clearance with "free delivery" from the good guys
    4 days letter a huge The Good Guys truck shows up in the driveway at around 6pm with "Geelong" written on the side of it, I lived in the south east suburbs, so it's around 130km/1.5hr drive, the guy gets out of the truck and hands me the ereader case and I mentioned I'm surprised it came from Geelong and he replied "yeah it was assigned to our store, and you're actually our only delivery for today"
    So they drove a giant truck all the way from Geelong to essentially hand deliver a single plastic cover for $5 😂
    I sent them feedback the next day thanking them, but letting them know I would have been just as happy to get it posted or shipped to a local store for pickup…
