23 days for my order to arrive from a third party. Not the greatest experience
Ordered a WiiU game to be delivered. i had the choice of in store pickup or to have it delivered, with a wide range of payment options. for my purchase, both options were free, so i chose to have it delivered for the convenience
i was sent an invoice the same day and not long after, my order was marked as shipped - there were no further order details nor tracking details
a week later, not having received my item, i decided to call their help centre to enquire about my order. i was told to wait up to 12 days to allow for my order to arrive, and if it had not done so by then, i could call up again
12 days later, still no delivery, so i called again. as Big W had not sold me the game (seems they were selling the game on behalf of a third party), they advised me that they would follow up on my order for me. i was also offered the choice of a refund, but i preferred to have my game.
several days later i received an email from Big W on behalf of the company stating to please allow up to a total of 20 days for my item to arrive, due to Australia Post delays, and if i still had not received my item by a specified date, to call the company
again, my item did not arrive by the specified date, so i called the number provided. no-one answered my calls, despite calling on numerous occasions at different times, so i left a message.
happily, i did receive an unexpected follow up call and the representative arranged for a replacement item to be sent to be via Express Post.
My game finally arrived the next day.
Overall, although i did receive my game in the end, i found the whole process quite disatisfactory and somewhat frustrating. being told that i would have to wait over 20 days for "local delivery" is very poor and the lack of tracking also proved an issue
i'm not sure i would buy from Big W again, but i guess i cant hold them at fault, as they were selling on behalf of a third party. i can't recommend them, but also can't fault them. i'm sitting on the fence for this one
I placed this order after buying some books that were on sale on the Big W website and concluding that the sale was so good, I needed to go back for more by placing a second order the following day.
The order process was easy and I was able to pay for the order straight away using Paypal.
The order arrived in store a little under 2 weeks from the time I placed the order and as it was over $40, I was able to use their "click and collect" service.
The pick up process was simple, I just needed to show my ID at the layby counter to pick up the order. The order was really well packed with all the books surviving the trip well.
I am really happy with this purchase. I think Big W's click and collect service is really easy to use and a great alternative to paying for postage.
I placed an order through the Big W website for some stationery items and books that I had seen on sale. The sale was a great find and I found that I easily reached and exceeded the $40 total required for me to "click and collect" the order.
I received a text message 4 working days after placing the order informing me that they were experiencing some delays with click and collect orders. I wasn't at all fussed by the delay, but I was really pleased that they kept me informed.
I then received a text and confirmation e-mail 3 days after that, on a Saturday, to inform me that my order was ready to be collected.
When I went to the store, picking up the order was a really simple process and the parcel was very well packaged. Far better than I had expected for a store pick up.
I was really happy with the service I received from Big W and I found their "click and collect" service really simple to use. I would happily recommend it to others.
Big W were advertising a Toy sale and I have two godsons I needed to buy for. I hate battling crowds , so for this to be online was a treat. I got two great toys for a remarkably cheap price and delivery came within 2 weeks. I could also choose an option of Christmas delivery but chose to get them early. It was a pleasant ordering experience and a site I will try again in the future.
I went online on google to check where I could buy cheap sterling silver crucifix necklaces. Big W was one of the online stores that came up and knowing that they are a budget store, I checked it out. They had exactly what I was looking for in the appearance of the crucifix they had in stock. It was also at the right price. I made the purchase and I had to register my details as a new customer - personal information including shipping address. It was a very comprehensive website as I had a browse around for anymore products that I wanted to buy. In the end I just bought the crucifix. They had a delivery charge of under $10 and they stated on the confirmation purchase page that it would be delivered in 7-10 days. That was true as I received my order on the 10th day. I highly recommend this website for anything you could possibly want at a low price. In this case, the other websites did not even sell sterling silver crucifixes but Big W did. You'll be surprised at what you find in this store.
On the 24/01/2013 i ordered a 'Olympic Exercise Book 9"x7" 64 Page ' from Big W,Later that day i received notification that my order had shipped and from memory the item was delivered (to the post office mind you) within 10 days.
Shipping was free due to a promotion Big W were running at the time.
