I’ve had to return a couple of things over the years and have had great experiences with Takealot. Sometimes I pay a little extra by buying from them just to have the piece of mind that when it comes to returns they are so good.
So that’s really disappointing that you are having trouble with their returns.

Thanks for the feedback, everyone. It looks like we just had a perfect storm of bad service luck.
We ordered a couple of TP-link Deco pucks, as it was on special. The package was delivered in Pta the next day, but it contained a plastic sellotape dispenser, worth about R4. Contacted Takealot, was asked to take photos of the dispenser and waybill and packaging, which is fair.
Then we were asked to ship the R4 dispenser back. When Takealot receives it, they’ll start processing our order again.
- Ship a R4 dispenser back using our own R200? That’s not on, is it?
- Surely they can organize a replacement order while the negotiations regarding The One Dispenser’s ownership and location is ongoing?
- When said replacement is delivered, we’ll gladly hand The One Dispenser to the courier, if Takealot sends us a waybill. That they paid for.
I don’t think that’s unreasonable…

Yeah that doesn’t sound right. I received a wrong order before and they just sent someone to come pick it up. Didn’t cost anything.

Exactly that - before their pickup points, the courier would collect from you no questions asked

I mean basically if they want the item, they need to come fetch it…or else you just gonna keep it. you already were nice by showing that they added stuff to your order.

Nooooo, you misunderstood. The package had only the tape dispenser, no electronics! We’ve been had! Scammed, I tell you!
But ja, I was under the impression the courier would just swap packages (hehehe) when the correct order was delivered.

does beta versions of solutions/software require a disclaimer to be aknowledged by the user?

A disclaimer as in “This is beta software. It may or may not work the way you expect it too. Don’t kak on us if it messes up your stuff. You have been warned. Etc.”? I would think it doubly important to cover the software developers.

Precisely.
or is it just a given that beta assumes “work in progress”? By simply putting a “beta” label over or near a solution or specific functionality is that enough.
I like the disclaimer route as it requires acknowledgement fro the user.

Never make assumptions about the stupidity levels of users. If we need to put “Caution: contents may be hot” warnings on coffee cups, and “Do not use while wearing clothes” on iron packaging, you need a disclaimer on your software.
