Customer (lack of/terrible) service

I have been trying to buy an item from Centurion Makro (10 boxes at R175 per box). The previous few times I drove there I was always told that they are out of stock (and nothing in the back). So I tried ordering online and found the item not available online. Then I tried Makro Care and they advised me to email the store at *** which I did but there was no response Then I tried to contact the store telephonically a few times to ask someone to keep me the order I have. The last person who answered promised to let me know by close of business that day whether or not he has the 10 boxes of the item available to collect. When I didn't hear back from him that day I contacted him again the next day (as I had taken his name) and he made the same commitment. Again I didn't hear from him. When I contacted him the 3rd time I realized that he was just playing games with me. So I have given up trying and will rather pay more at another business than support Makro again.

Thanks for recommending that I use OneCart but I'm still not happy with what happened.
I sent OneCart to buy the 10 boxes and exactly what I expected happened. The store only had 3 boxes.

So now I paid OneCart for the service, have to get a refund and got less than half of my order all thanks to your guy who told me when I contacted him the 3rd time yesterday that there were (suddenly) 10 boxes for me. I knew he was just saying so to make me drive all the way for nothing.
He even sent me a thumbs-up when I said that the service was bad.

Excuse me but I think you missing the point. I have no problem with Onecart. They did exactly what I asked them to do. It's not their fault that Makro didn't supply them with my full order which I was assured is there by your staff.
