Remember The Guy Who Bought An iPhone 5S For Rs 68? see what happened..

Nikhil Bansal received a cheque of Rs 1,090 from Snapdeal instead of a Rs 68-priced iPhone that he purchased on the website, and now he's fighting Snapdeal in the apex consumer forum for the phone.

The iPhone 5S currently retails for Rs. 28,999 Rupees on Snapdeal. A college kid got it for Rs 68. No, there are no 'lifehacks' or cashback involved - it's just a customer who spotted a deal, one that even Snapdeal didn't intend!

Punjabi University B.Tech student Nikhil Bansal did what anyone would do if they spot a 99.7% off on an iPhone - he grabbed itThen, Bansal took Snapdeal to courtHe ordered the iPhone 5S for Rs 68 on February 12 and waited. And waited. And waited - the phone never came, because it might have been a technical snag rather than a great Snapdeal discount.

Filing a consumer court complaint in Punjab’s Sangrur district, he alleged that Snapdeal refused to ‘honor the deal’, Trak.in reported. Not only did the court order Snapdeal to sell him the iPhone 5S for Rs. 68, but the e-commerce giant was also made to pay a Rs 2,000 penalty.

Snapdeal tried to fight back

And we're cheering him on - it's the perfect consumer lesson to the e-tailer, infamous for sending rocks and wood to customers. Snapdeal contested the decision in state consumer forum and reportedly lost again, this time being ordered pay a fine of Rs 10,000 to close the case. But they are unrelenting and are challenging him in the National consumer forum.
