if you place so many orders of below 500 then only take it otherwise not of any value…you will only get next delivery only for those orders which will be shipped from same city which you can also without ff. i am from delhi and my pin code is not serviceable under ff but i get next day delivery order shipped from delhi warehouse with Ekart llogistics……one thing i have observed is if you want faster delivery the place order on cod only because cod orders they with Ekart logistics

Depends, for me it was totally worth it.

Early access to sale events is a big boost, I got my Redmi 1S from that and next sales it was purely luck to get them, so was nice to have one confirmed. Also, Flipkart first only sale every month is a bit noteworthy too, last sale was pretty good with some branded products on great discounts

If you hardly shop online products <500, it may not be that worth but in 1 year it’ll definitely pay you back, these days FK is giving great discounts, some pricing errors, Some deals of the day are good, and adding up with clearance sales & crazy sales etc, it’ll definitely pay itself in the form of no-shipping charges.

Priority support is bullshit as well as 1 day delivery is not that far ahead of standard delivery.

So, it all comes down to your personal choice, but I do definitely recommend it

For me it is worth it. Please check a few things before you opt for it. Check if most of the items are covered by WSRETAIL seller in your area for next day delivery. if so go ahead with the subscription. Like the above poster said the biggest advantage is early access to sales. I got my Mi3 one day before the flash sale since i had flipkart first. I never get charged for shipping even for an item that costs only 1.

For me they are selling the subscription at very decent price. I have placed around 15 + orders since i upgrade my subscription 1 month back. Most of those 15 orders costed below 500 rupees. So i saved quite a bit on shipping.

Priority support i agree with above user. Doesn’t make any difference however For me 1 day delivery works perfectly. i stay in south delhi and items that are dispatched even from far off places like bangalore and delivered in under 15 hours most of the times.

I’m scared when i see the term standard delivery coz for standard delivery they ship the product using " Delhivery couriers" which is one of the most unreliable and pathetic courier service i have seen. Ekart logistics works great here.

I see that subscription can be cancelled anytime with a refund received at a prorated basis (rounded to the month). Has anyone cancelled theirs (or know anyone who did) and received the refund smoothly?
