Don't need a defense for such nonsense.
I'm going to launch a new auction site tomorrow, put out a release saying it's going to take over eBay, and then bash everyone who points out any flaws for not wanting free markets and obviously being a bunch of commies.

I respectfully disagree
So you think I should apologize for sharing a negative buying experience and doubting that they'll become the next Amazon? For real?
Maybe throw in some gratuitous shaming for good measure because I run a business?

You guys are bashing Jet for nothing, they are going to bring us the best prices we ever thought of, they are drop shippers and their lower level costumer service don't understand the concept of it so well and how to deal with returns, it is very confusing for all of us, I didn't understand it fully yet, but again they are still in Beta and for that reason, they have to train their staff on how to deal with the system ,and whoever want's their system to succeed should send them feedback to feedback@jet.com and enjoy, but whoever don't want that (maybe some mods here) should just continue to bash them and try to make sure nothing comes out of there, again I would not trust them with shipping speed yet, but I'll trust them that i'll get my item if the price and everything makes sense (10-15% lower)
All I can say in absolute honesty I have zero bias in either direction. I haven't even really checked out jet yet. I glanced on their site for a few minutes(had an invite), and never ordered anything yet. Just by reading through this thread both yourself and yuneeq seemed to be overly defending them. The people bashing them seemed to have had legitimate issues.

No I do not think you need to apologize for anything. But as an outsider I can see that both ways it is a very biased argument. You each obviously care (a lot) to defend or attack. IMO you did more than just share a negative experience. And bringing up that Amazon deals are cheaper is silly,when the argument is about regularly priced items (it us famous that Amazon will sell things at a significant loss to price out competition, and while when they do this it is great for the consumer, it can not be used as an example of how cheap they are.

No, I shared my own negative experience and got bashed for it as obviously having to do with a bias, as if I can't bash anyone that I don't have a business relationship with.
Read it again.

+1    I would just like to point out that yuneeq himself did not deny that there were major issues. He defended saying that's they can't be responsible during beta. Dan is saying during beta the standards should be the same.

I didn't say they should be the same. Beta is a time to find mistakes, that's a given.
I did say that beta isn't a valid excuse for bad service, that's very different than web mistakes and shows of a culture that isn't empowered to fix problems.

Should I tell you something Dan ordered a laptop for $100 he thought he'd make $600, at the end he got a monitor, this was in the first days of their beta, I personally know someone who got $25 JetCash for such an incident "recently" which means they are getting better,
Personal experience: On the third day of their beta (May 2) i found a tablet that would normally cost $750.00 at just $6.65 I ordered 5 of it (that's all they had listed), the real product almost shipped (I know that) but at the end they caught on it an canceled my order.

So you agree that even though you had a bad experience and were not wowed by your first experience, there still is a chance that this will turn out to be a success?
And do you agree that the competition will be positive for both buyers and sellers if successful?

Wow, shocking stuff  ::)
I don't care about the Jet Cash/compensation. But when I get the wrong item the answer on the phone should be oops, let me fix that.
Now "Oh, well you waived the return so there's nothing I can do for you."

This is bad... must agree, but as i said make your common sense when you buy from them, this is what happened to a lot (that they shipped the wrong item)

Another thing I think you guys are missing: In all likelihood jet will have an affiliate program if they are planing on properly competing with Amazon. So all this biased stuff isn't relevant until they properly launch, with or without an affiliate program.

I don't come anyone's defense. It seems there #1 problem is customer service. On a startup that is the first thing you get right. All this other stuff is just fluff to confuse the real issue of poor customer service.
I just found a new supply of forks!
