Very rude and poor customer service

published

I ordered 3 grillpans from their online store for saving shipping cost. They sent an email to me to ask call them. Usually other stores call me, not ask to call them. They said they have only 1, and they can refund only cost for other 2 grillpans. I asked refund for two grillpans and 2/3 of shipping cost, but they never answered. After 1 week they dispatched 1 grillpan. And without any excuse or explanation, they simply refunded only cost for 2 grillpans.
The shipping cost is small amount, but I was so unhappy because of their very rude and unprofessional customer service.

Good place for a bargain

published

If you know what you are getting, better come this place. Thermos product they offer the lowest in Sydney region that no where can be found or matched. And sometime if you check their website you can spot amazing deal on clearance goods.

Benzer rosti cookware DANGEROUS, reacts with food !!!

published

The food cooked in this cookware turned black, including the sides of the saucepan. I made lentil soup with some ginger and lemon juice in this saucepan and turns out the metal is reacting with food.

Similar reaction with fruit purees made in this saucepan. Extremely poor quality product, I feel gutted. You buy something and trust it works normally only to find that it reacts with food and you may have been exposed to the dangers.

Excess packaging

published

Just received my first online purchase from VB. I have never seen so much wasted packaging. Five items packed into an ENOURMOUS box that was filled with dreaded poly beads. What an environmental disaster. VB - you need to reduce your packaging because it determines how many of us shop.

Appalling online shopping experience and poor customer service

published

Seamless 'Click Frenzy' shopping online

published

Victoria's Basement has a great customer and user friendly set-up for 24 hours Click Frenzy shopping online for products. For those who are busy and especially as the year draws to a close for festive shopping online is a breeze. Next day received a courtesy phone call from customer service to confirm the final transaction and purchase delivery time which was a pleasant surprise. Thank you

Scales I bought that had a highly inflated RRP (will be lodging complaint with Fair Trading) were not of adequate quality. Refused refund.

very poor quality, outlandish RRP's

published

on two different occasions bought items from victoria's basement, 1 was a coffee plunger and the other was salt and pepper grinders - BOTH completely failed within about 12 weeks. i can only conclude the quality of products on offer are of extreme poor quality, whilst dressed up with obviously outlandish RRP's...

WMF - Diadem Plus 6pc 18/10 Stainless Steel Cookware Set

published

Don't buy this product. Poor quality. First time use of the pot created cloudy and stain at the base which could not be washed and cleaned by normal dishwashing liquid. Request for an alternate product was turned down. Unfriendly manager who doesn't show professions and don't care if the customer gets the product satisfaction.
Don't buy this product and don't buy any product from victoria's basemen!!!!

DOA knife sharpener refused return

published

I bought an automatic knife sharperner for $82 on 16/8/16, one of the most expensive in the shop. The machine failed on the first use. I took it back to the shop and expect a full refund on DOA on 17/8/16. The store manager was totally rude and ruthless when dealing with me. She was yelling and refused a refund for the purchase. Reason being the machine has been used, even once, and it is warranty issue. I am totally disappointed with the so called store manager and I have had no choice but to walk away. I will never return to this store. Buyers beware.

Outdated No Refund Model

published

Could not return $20 lid the next day. Credit given as an slip of paper. Expiry is only 6 months.

Buyer beware! Artificially high pre discount pricing - questionable refund policy

published

Absolutely atrocious refund policy. You effectively have to prove an item doesn't work! Purchased $225 induction friendly wok only to find it doesn't interface with stove (although website clearly states it does. Returned item in 4 days (I live 2 hours away) only to be told it has to be returned to supplier to prove it doesn't work. Unconscionable business practices. Complaint lodged with dept of fair trading.

If I could give a zero I would!

Absolutely disgusting customer service. Bought a product that I no longer needed. I called instantly to rectify the situation, only to find out that no refunds allowed (this is not on the website!!!).

Misleading Prices

published

They display massively discounted prices on their baby/christening range BUT 90% of it is not actually available. You have to click into every product to actually see that they are out of stock, everywhere else they still advertise and display them like they are available. They make themselves look cheaper that everyone else but most of the prices aren't even available anymore.
