What's the protocol when the customer can't pay on delivery?



As far as I know, the company keeps the goods. And the more high-priced items (laptop, TV, etc.) can't be paid in cash on delivery (only credit card or Internet banking accepted for those).


In India, laptops can be cash-on-delivery. When I order from Flipkart(India's very own Amazon), I always opt for cash-on-delivery. I see no point in paying up-front when sometimes they don't have the goods and I have to wait for refunds. The delivery person carries card reader, so there is no need to carry large amounts of cash.


Mostly everything from Flipkart (and for that matter, it appears, from Amazon) can be bought cash-on-delivery.

I know most of the things can be bough cash-on-delivery. I was responding to "high priced items viz. laptops" can't be bought cash-on-delivery.


> (and for that matter, it appears, from Amazon) Amazon has put an upper limit of 50K on Cash on Delivery.
