Replacement required IMMEDIATELY for shoddy second-hand Volkano headphones received

I have been trying to get a replacement for the shoddy second-hand Volkano headphones delivered to me on Monday as part of a larger order - no response from Game support as yet!

1. Outer box NOT sealed - patched;

2. Headband chipped - dropped?

NOT acceptable!

Good day Annette,

Apologies for the delay.

The matter is being dealt with at head office and we are just awaiting feedback from the store as to why the item was sent out in that state and to arrange a replacement.

Thank you for your feedback. Please keep me updated. Very disappointed in your policy - making the customer suffer due to (alleged) lack of training at Game. I've just spent a lot of money with you and I am NOT best pleased with having to wait for my prepaid new purchase

Hi Brad, do you have a Game outlet @ Galleria Mall? If so, please arrange for the Manager to keep a NEW RED Volkano headset for me to swap for the shoddy one I received from Gateway. DV, I will be going there next week. Anxiously awaiting your favourable response . . .

Dear Brad

I regret to advise that my patience has almost run out!

On 05 May someone (Shane?) called me from Game @ Gateway and offered me the following options:

1. I take the 2nd hand goods into Game @ Gateway - I explained that I don't have transport, so that wouldn't be an option! OR

2. They will refund the price I paid.

I told him that I wanted a new product - the one I PAID for in advance!

He said that that would be a problem, but that he would see what he could do . . . Haven't heard a word since!!!

Seems to me that you have ultra-*********** staff at Game!

I've decided to accept the refund offered. Please see to it immediately!?

Sincerely
AW
