Atlast Bazee.com has been booked 😎 Read out the article here
Till now Bazee.com was only busy in counting money, they rarely listen to customer’s complaints. Mostly people are fooled at Bazee.com and it is rightly said… Bazee.com is for benefit of sellers only. Bazee Cafe section is full of complaints… check it out.
I have many times bought Software CDs, but everytime, the CD received was pirated one, many sellers are not even afraid of saying openly that they have no rights.
Once I asked a seller “Do you have rights from macromedia and other softwares company to sell their products.” The seller replied “no but the person whom i bought it from did not have it either.” 😆
I am waiting for NASSCOM to initiate some action against Bazee for allowing sale of pirated softwares 😈
Even GMAIL accounts are being sold on Bazee.com for a long time and I have already brought this to the notice of GMAIL management. They were happy to get the complaint and thanked me. But still they illegal sale goes on 😳
Once I bought some templates worth Rs 2,000 and just few days after came to know… most of the content was just downloaded from internet, and when I tried to give negative rating to the seller, it was not accepted :banghead:
It was the only the most expensive purchase on Bazee.com. Otherwise I restrict my purchases to Rs 500, when it is worth risk taking. My recent purchase was Telephone recording instrument worth Rs 75/-, through which I may be able to tap SIFY Customer Care promises for evidence 😀
But atleast I have one very successful purchase, because of which I have this site. That included 50MB web-space for Life-Time :yes: in an auction for Rs 851/-.
It was a tough competition… the last bid I made was 30 seconds before the close of auction 😉 It was for 1,100/-but as previous bid was for Rs 850/-. I got it for Rs 851/-.
Otherwise, I never had any plan to register this domain name or host any blogs. So atleast I can thank Bazee.com once 😎
Poonam says
Wow. The domain space for lifetime is too good!!! That’s really awesome! So you paid once and now you have it forever or do you have to make yearly payments to renew it?? Yep bazee.com, just by looking at it, doesn’t seem very professional at all. I know that you have spoken about it once. Well, i am glad that you have this webspace and the blog. There is one good thing to say about Bazee after all! rotfl
Ankur says
Yes… :thumb:
I have to pay yearly for domain name only, the webspace is surely for lifetime 😀
Bazee.com will surely be into more controversies, as they don’t bother to check what a seller has put up for display :smokin:
Gaurav says
Bazee is now an ebay company and am sure that ebay will take relevant steps to stop fraud.
Ebay didn’t buy it coz they r interested in few crore rs. dat Bazee makes (dunno how much it makes…may be in lakhs). Ebay bought it to expand itself in India as internet shopping hasn’t even started in India and has a long….way to go. Moreover it just killed one of its future competitor. What if Bazee came to intl. (US) market with a different business model and less auction fee as they have operations going on in India….
So I am sure that Ebay will make some kind os system thru which frauds can be stopped/minimized as scamming is easy in India.
BTW Ankur, what if ur host deletes ur account tomorrow, wot r u gonna do? They just said lifetime….its upto them if they will stick to it or not :P.
I just read that Swades is superb 🙂
Ankur says
Though I don’t myself expect to go on for life-time, but I will surely get more the value I paid for.
The company is of good repute, they provide with good customer service. So I dont think, something of the kind you have mentioned will happen, except if they close down their business.
In the beginning once they deleted all the accounts including mine, as they were transferring to some new server. After that they didn’t restore the free accounts provided to some Bangalore customers, but my account was surely restored.
That proves they are sticking to their words. Plus this company is in bangalore and is supported by some US company, and I think Hosting is somewhere in US.
Plus I have availed from them… some additional paid services for some other domain, which makes my Lifetime account more secure
Additionaly, in India first of all Electronic form is legally recognized, so I have copy of all the terms and conditions mentioned on Bazee. I can always resort to legal action, in case anything goes wrong 😈
Poonam says
well let’s hope that something good will come upon this recent police arrest of the bazee.com CEO.

Ankur says
Hope so… :thumb:
Thanks Poonam for the breaking news 🙂
Puneet says
Well a company promising unlimited bandwidth for such low cost is highly absurd not feasible.. …… well incase if you waana see what loopholes they would use or start putting restriction… on you … if you exceed the limited bandwidth which they might have .. thought… its just they wont say… so…
Saying unlimited bandwidth and lifetime offer its just marketing tricks.. hope the company. Doesn’t shut.. because it would if it gave more people lifetime offer.. with unlimited bandwidth
Whats the company name.. ? Does it have a website… ? me skeptical because check that bazee site and the sellor just sold 4 product and joined member since jul 04 only.. also many a times… indiviual have just buy resellor space on us servers and start selling then telling they got there own server etc
Ankur says
So much of negative things… 😯
I am very much positive! 🙂
The offer was for one person only. And that is me 😀
And even in case they close down, I will buy space somewhere else. Why to worry so much 🙄
Till then Enjoy 😛
Puneet says
Its not being negetive…. Its just like….. “look before you leep kinda thing� I am a very practical person I do through investigation before committing on something… it seemed intricate the “lifetime thing� that’s why asked …so many questions :laugh: ….. offer Oh one person then that’s commercially feasible….. :highfive:
Ankur says
But I havn’t paid them in thousands 😉
This amount for 50 MB space and unlimited features, it will be paisa vasool in one year :smokin:
Plus they provide efficient service. And as already mentioned I am paying them for some other service also. So they are earning something from me too :highfive:
Poonam says
sounds like a good deal to me…and don’t worry puneet…archer is a lawyer…he will take care of any company that even tries to take advantage of him rotfl
Ankur says
I agree with you poonam :laugh:
Gaurav says
I don’t say that company will close ur account or something….but I agree with Puneet that it is definitly not feasible, in general conditions. It might be possible that they did this for promotion and for good name.
— Analysis Start —
Anyways the company is http://www.syscomindia.com and they r indeed hosting their servers in US. The server is being hosted with http://theplanet.com in Dallas, TX. The Planet is a good company and they have a great data center. The server on which this site is hosted also hosts 373 more sites. I think its a lot, though not sure of the server config.
It hosts sites like:
http://www.5quadrants.com
http://www.A1domainhosting.net
http://www.Aarohiplastmould.com
— Analysis End —
Ankur says
Your analysis is totally wrong… 🙄
http://www.syscomindia.com is only hosting my domain, and he is just an associate in Delhi, I have still to pay him for Domain too 😉
The company where I have hosted is… located in Bangalore.
And they did it for promotion only 😛
With this… I am closing down discussion on this topic, as nobody can change the truth 🙂
