Claimant says: "Last week I placed an order for a BORAAM dining room chair, cherry. I thought before I completed the order I would chat about what the price to ship these(3) chairs. After giving my personal info and the item info, the rep. checked and said that shipping would be 19.99. We discontinued the chat and I proceeded to place the order. When I did, shipping showed as 29.99, so I went through chat again explaining what I was told. The rep checked and said that he was sorry, they were having a technical glitch and that I should wait 24 hrs and the shipping charge would be corrected to 19.99. I waited 24 hrs, tried putting my order through and the charge was still 29.99. I chated again and asked the rep to check, he did, came back and apologized that their tech's were still working on the problem and that I should wait another 12 hrs. I expressed my fear that this was originally a chair priced at over$150 marked done to 13.49 and I needed them before the 20th of Nov. The rep said not to worry you'll get them by the 17th. I said okay and waited another 12 hrs. I tried putting the order through again and still the same shipping charge 29.99. I chated again this time requesting a supervisor. Duane left to get one and the chat showed he left the session and that the supervisor was added, then...session ended. I tried through chat again, to no avail, once again they disconnected the chat without connecting me with a supervisor. I then tried putting my order through again deciding if it did not correct this time I would pay 29.99. This time I got a new message saying 'we are sorry, we are having technical difficulty on our end...please try again later' with this new message I thought I'd wait for them to correct the problem. I continued 'trying later'. I tried and tried and received the same message. I decided that on Monday (today) I would Call Sears. This morning I decided that I would no longer wait but place the order with the 29.99 shipping. I tried putting the order through and got a messaged saying 'we cannot deliver to your area'. I have never seen that on Any order I've Ever placed. No reason why, but my option's, make another choice or choose another address. I tried my sisters address, a different City in Ga, and got the same response. My only option now was to call, but before I do I'll try again. This time the message said this item is no longer in stock or the quantity's not available. I could not believe it and I still do not. I then tried ordering from the beginning process-Out Of Stock. I was livid. I did just what the reps told me to do and what Sears Technicians told me to and in so doing now they're out of stock. I have spoken to 3 reps at the 800#, 2 that disconnected after I asked for an escalation (one was a manager). The 3rd one apologized but could not do anything to help me.The technical Glitch and problems on Our end was not My doing. Sear's advertised a Boraam cherry dining room chair for 13.49. Perhaps this was an error? Perhaps not. Either way, I believe Sears should honor this price and quantity and get my chairs to me, or, find (3) chairs that would be comparable and sale them for the same price, 13.49 with of course 19.99 shipping.*” ...Show less »
