Something is not right with banggood and shipping times..

Ordered 2 items yesterday, both claim in stock and ships within 24hours, yet when i go to order details it says;

Expected Shipping Date: 2019-03-08 07:10:29

this makes no sense ?

They have real problems in the llast few month. My last 5 orders are on back order or they got cancled.
Especially very good deals with code are usually not in stock and more than ones get cancled 1 or 2 weeks later. I hope this is only a temp problem! If not i will have to find a different shop to spend my money.
Best example is a screenshot of this mail i got today.

yes never had this… always when i saw stock 24hours i think ok good they ship it out quick but lately it seems they just lie about the actual stock… maybe they are going downhill who knows… :frowning:

I got the same e-mail about my order (Convoy L6 XHP 70.2). They cancelled it without asking me. After 3 weeks of waiting…

I have the impression they accumulated tons of orders during the CNY, and are having a lot of troubles fulfilling them.

Maybe they should have stopped orders during that period, but they didn’t.

And another +1 from me. From several last orders more than half got delayed. I’m still waiting for quite a long time for 4 orders and one got cancelled after 3 weeks of waiting.

They gave me the option to wait or a refund. I chose to wait. The expected arrival date was 3-6-2019 or so.

@hondarider I did choose to wait too, but one week later they did cancel my order anyway…

They have not cancelled my order. Just checked it. Guess I will find out in a week or so if it comes into stock. They also let me choose how long I was willing to wait. I picked a date close to April 1. I am not in a hurry.

i have recieved that email as well, i chose to wait until the item should be in stock again, and received the same email again 2 days later.
Item should be in stock March 4.
2 days later i received an email that the item is sent :person_facepalming:

that is really bad, if they cant honor it atleast be honest about it that they got more orders then they had stock or something….

My great deal on a Convoy L2 never materialized after a month of waiting so I cancelled.After a couple of days of no refund I live chatted them . The refund came the next day. I think also that the CNY got the best of them and also their suppliers. The ordering protocol could definitely use some work though. It would avoid bad feelings.

I boycott BG because of their hinky shipping.

really? i have beef when they are not honest about actual stock, i think their shipping is nothing wrong so far for me…

Yep my last 5 orders have been the same.

Also over here in the UK they use Yodel couriers, Banggoods tracking system never updates, only Yodels.

…if we combine this erratic behavior with the “free gift” disaster some of us were/are in, they are having serious issues.

Maybe they cant cope?

I have spent FAR to much recently.

Recently my buddy wanted to get a Q8. I told him I knew of a coupon so I could get it at a good price. So he threw me the cash and I went home to order it for him. Add it to my cart, apply coupon, wait for package. 7 days later I get the back ordered email and get the 24hrs to respond to get a refund. I responded to the email and got a refund 5 days later.

Gave my buddy back his money and told him the story. He was fine with it and I thought nothing more of it. Well his wife wanted to do something nice for him so two days later she gets on BG and orders it at the regular price, no coupon. Shows up at the door 2 weeks later.

Order with a coupon for a cheap price, back ordered. Order at regular price, shipped next day.

Guess you can figure out where I won’t be ordering from.

As I said on another thread, they seem to get out of honest business.

Sure…why not skewer my next purchases! Up here, Amazon.ca is usually way more expensive on flashlight. Amazon.com charges a lot to to get it across the border.

So I was warming up to buy from Banggood….and now this.
