Be wary of bonus promotions that don't apply online

published

I have always been a fan of Harris Scarfe sales, I had recently bought a Killarney quilt with two bonus pillows from Mornington, and after seeing the same bonus online stocked up with 3 more. After receiving the 3 quilts without pillows, I was informed there is some small print about the offer not applying online (to which I responded why would it be promoted online if not applicable online). No offer to provide the bonus offer if we come into the store, quite annoyed and they have lost a customer due to the poor communication and management of my issue.

Shoddy customer service

published

An item was missing from my order, which I'd already signed for, believing that order was complete ...sent 2 emails, contacted customer support by phone and didn't get any answers, went on their facebook site today and wrote a comment about my issue as well as send them a message, within half an hour I had a reply saying that item weas on it's way ...maybe F/B is the quickest way to get some action ?

A good store.

published

We had bought a Stanley Rogers Noah 56 piece cutlery set some months ago. having only 2 of us living here we hadn't used every piece until recently when I used a previously unused fork to find it quite rough along one edge. The remainder of the pieces were quite OK.We took it back to the local HS store to show them and ask if they could replace that piece. As they couldn't do so, the retail assistant asked us to bring in the hole set and either exchange it for some other set or take a refund. On doing that we found only 2 types of sets there, neither of which we wanted so we took the refund. There were no problems at all. Great service, Harris Scarf.

Great sales plus wide range of stock

No matter which of their stores I visit there is always a bargain to be had at Harris Scarfe. Great range in homewares and manchester. Cheap and cheerful ladies clothes and underwear. Staff have been wonderfully helpful and rung other stores to track down items for me.

Exactly what I expected.

published

Needed a new underlay for my queen bed. So got on line to do some searching. Was easy to navigate Harris Scarf on line, and a bonus, thay had a sale on manchester!
The range was good and descriptions of the product was informative. Easy toorder and pay, got a confirmation email straight away. Was impressed with the tracking, I knew what day it was going to be delivered.
Only negative was they did not allow the delivery to be left in a safe place, I had to be home to sign for it or it would go to the post office, no big deal, just inconvenient.
Came quickly, ordered on 7th arrived 14th.

Air fryer, easy to use

published

Since purchasing my air fryer cooking is so much easier and quicker and even the mess after, takes no time at all to clean up. Should have bought one sooner.

Purchase of a Kettle

published

I researched on the Internet which product I wanted. It was marked down from $79.95 to $29.95. The product was easy to find in the store and also marked at the advertised price. However, the cash register asked for 69.95. The staff member did not believe me and took me to the shelf. She then confirmed that the lower price was correct, but no apology. Good customer service is very rate.

HS always on ‘sale’

published

I’m wary of stores who always have sales like HS. But are they really sales? With HS I highly doubt it because they heavily inflate the prices then put a 50% off sign above it. Even with the discount, the price is much higher than it’s worth. Sometimes you can prove this by looking at the same brand in Big W. HS stock their own brands too like Westcape, so it’s harder to check, but this brand is still overpriced even when it’s on sale. I only buy from HS now if I am desperate.

Advertising and not having stock

published

After visiting 3 HS stores looking for an item advertised in their flyer only to be told that stock has not arrived. Asked in one store if one could put away for me when they arrived only to be told "NO CAN DO"
Nice trick advertising and not having stock just to get customers into your store HS. I won't be shopping there in the future.

It's a rip off

published

My husband bought me a Tramontina coffee plunger and he was pleased to be told it was marked down from $69.95 to a price of $39.95. I have had previous issues before at Harris Scarfe having items supposedly marked down so I checked the price on line and discovered that they were priced at $35 at Big W and was not on sale. It is dishonest and misleading to make you believe it is a bargain, it is just deceitful! I won't be buying from HS again unless I check out the correct retail price first.

Just to follow up, I did return the item to Harris Scarfe and found another brand for a fraction of the reduced price in another store.

Won’t buy online again!!

Not happy Harrisscafe!!
Not only did you send me someone else’s order, but when I contacted you about the mix up I was told they would resend my order. Then a few days later PayPal informs me I have been refunded my purchase. However I was not refunded the postage amount. So I got charged postage on an order I never received & now I have to go out a buy the items I wanted again. Shame on you Harrisscafe, you have lost me as a customer.

Harris Scarfe

We had ordered a TVshop vacuum a bit too hastily because that is what happens when you phone them to ask questions about quality. They want you to order with a 30 day guarantee to return. So our research says it isn't worth $560. We also find it on Harris Scarfe website for special deal $299, so we ordered this same vacuum for $299 from Harris Scarfe website. Order was confirmed and notification received. Now we see the price has increased on Harris Scarfe before our order has been shipped. We are still waiting. Will we have to pay extra because we already paid a cancellation penalty with TVshop to return ship unopened delivery. They weren't happy and even though we didn't say we found it cheaper on Harris Scarfe they said they would do an internet search.

If your Harris Scarfe order was confirmed at the price you paid, then they can't change it, they must abide by advertised price at time of order ... that is the law

I have contacted them but was given an excuse (sounds made up) I think TVshop is a bit scarey for HS, so don't look like you are poaching a TVshop order eh? even though TVshop sucks you into ordering with that no obligation trial (which we didn't want and it cost us money out of our account and more money to send back the unopened item) . HS has the loop hole of cancelling the order at the $299 price... but now readvertising our item for $479 on their website. So I contacted HS and said if they don't unload it for $479, let us know... since they still owe us that item for $299. Of course we are a bit broke because we now have to wait for TVshop to refund money, not sure what we get from them. HS already refunded so they can resell the stock they sold us. There is an obvious difference between HS and TVshop. ... HS cancels the order when you want it, TVshop gets you to order when you don't want it. The end result is we outlayed $890 between the two shops and got no product in end. Money dribbling back.
