How dare they give you discount at their loss due to the suppliers messing up. How double dare they!

I know right!?!?!How could takealot so blatantly and deliberately deceive you ! What unspeakable evil !
I think the sensationalism the OP created was his way of getting extra discount and attention on the forums. I mean seriously grow up, contact the reseller and have it sorted out before jumping on the forums.Did you even try contacting TakeAlot prior to opening your little ranting thread here?
This is such a south African mindset. (Just contact the retailer...)
In the US, it's straight back to the manufacturer.
I did speak to the manager i spoke to last week BEFORE I posted here. He didn't get back to me by the time he said he would.
I was irritated as i was promised delivery in a personal email by last week.
No need to get personal. I've spoken to them and it's sorted.
To be fair, you did contravene the forum rules.

Luckily he is in South Africa so there's nothing wrong with the mindset. TakeAlot served as the intermediary between the client and the manufacturer, so I think it is obvious that the client must then send it back to TakeAlot to deal with the issue. You're right about the fault being with the manufacturer, but it's TakeAlot's issue to deal with the manufacturer about it.
I bought an iPad from Kalahari last year that turned out to be dead on arrival. I sent it straight back to Kalahari. Not a ticky was I going to go struggle with finding out how to get in contact with Apple and go through that whole schlep. I paid Kalahari for a product, so it's up to Kalahari to makes sure I got a working product.
