Books on knives

Post by winnie_the_pooh » Sun Jan 29, 2012 9:41 am

Flipkart has a number of books on knife making.This is the result I got when I searched for 'knife making' on the site

They also have a number of books on guns and gunsmithing/refinishing of firearms.

My experience with them has not been too great. Paid up front through net banking, order got cancelled because they did not have the book in stock. Two days later, the same book is up for sale at 25% higher price on the site. This order was placed on 15th Jan. Am still waiting for the refund despite constant reminders.

I would suggest purchases on a cash on delivery basis rather than net banking or debit/ credit card purchases.

Basically flipkart is losing it touch.

Have ordered books C.O.D from them, as has my nephew (who pointed me to the site in the first place)... never had any issues thus far. YMMV
