Doesn't get any worse than this. Stay away! I have never had such a terrible experience with an online store in my life. I did not receive any updates via email. I called the company for a status of my order, every time I would get the same response "it is in our warehouse and will ship when ready. The 4th time I called after 6 days I asked if they actually had it in stock and the rep chuckled and he said you are right we don't have it. I am now waiting for a refund and have lost valuable time/money as the component was crucial to one of our work station.
Mac mall will list items as in stock and charge you expedited shipping but will NOT ship. Several days after ordering, and past the time my order should have been delivered, they claimed the item was on back order. They try to steal your money and never delivered the products. STAY AWAY! My card was charged twice with different amounts from their "business"
Terrible company and even worse customer service. Ordered an iPad and they essentially refused a return the item despite the product being defective. Return request was initiated one day after receiving the item and the company stated I must either 1) Go through apple to "verify" the defect or 2) return it directly to Macmall but with a 15% restocking fee. Neither of which is stated on their return policy! Needless to say I'm disputing this entire transaction with my credit card company, this is some really shady business practice and they're making up these return terms on the spot. While I've seen restocking fee's elsewhere, I've never, ever seen it being applied to a defective product or a company asking you to have the OEM look at it. Don't make my mistake, avoid this company at all costs as they don't stand behind their money back guarantee/return policy.
Ordered 2nd day Saturday delivery, didn't happen. Tried to find out status of order, didn't happen. Tried to cancel order and get conformation, didn't happen. Told to refuse order when delivered that signature would be required. Lucky waited around two days over holidays to not sign and refuse two deliveries, one was dropped without FedEx asking for signature, lucky to flag him down. Now calling not getting any conformation of returned packages. Being told 3-5 days to return, 3-5 day for refund, don't worry, be happy by customer service staff that can barely speak english, just saying. Buy from B&H if you want discount, everything with them went as advertised.
I would rather buy from Amazon, the return process is a nightmare. 15% restocking fee. I ordered a router and waned to cancel it literally hours later and they said it was too late and asked me to refuse the package. I could not refuse as it was delivered when I was not home. So learnt my lesson. I would not be buying from them again.
Bought flashdrives from them, some didn't even work, some had less GB, package is a little bit different than with flash drives purchased from BestBuy (same model). MacMall sells fake chinese knock-offs and refused to solve the problem
Placed an order online last night for 2 - iMac's for the business, but since the billing and shipping were different they needed the CFO's home # and name for a credit card in my name. MacMall used to be great, and before they charged sales tax, but after they were bought out by PCM; it has been nothing but a down hill failure.
So, they lost my $$$ and I ordered directly from Apple. Oh look, no calls or emails about the billing being different from the shipping. Go "fly" a kite MacMall, will never order from you again!
I tried to return my Macbook pro with in first week of purchase due to some issue. I tried reaching them more than 10 times but they have not sent me return label. I agreed to pay return shipping expenses even then they didn't send label. They always says its in process. I suggest not to take any goods from MacMall.
Bounced refund check. Did not ship merchandise. No customer service. Do not order from this company. Fraudulent activity. I got a bounced refund check. They cashed my original check and never shipped the merchandise. Then sent me a rubber refund check. Customer service is horrible.
I ordered 2 graphics cards. I used my UPS Store box which I use for my business and they won't ship to it. I don't want these items sitting on my front porch to be stolen. The UPS box is much more secure but MacMall is scared they will be ripped off. What's the difference between sending it to a home address or UPS Store? At the store someone signs for it and holds it for me. On my porch anyone can grab it and MacMall gets hit with nondelivery and has to file with UPS of Fedex. Very poor service. They just los a $1100 sale.
Ordered on a Sunday and paid an extra $20 and their website said it would arrive Tuesday 8 pm. They charged immediately. Flood of advertisements began immediately. No confirmation email. When I called to get an order number, the phone was answered with a "hello?" and then someone else giving a macmall speil over who knows what. That call was so unprofessional I hung up and went to email. When I finally got to my order info, an extra day added to my order. A day when I'd be out of town and wouldn't have ordered. When I called again, I was getting some explanation about shipping and blah blah blah. This company has been in business how long? And they haven't bothered to program an accurate shipping calculator? Goes to show you how little effort they put into the company. The website looks like it hasn't changed since the 90s;.
Purchased an item and because of the incorrect item listing details I returned it unpoened and still sealed. They didn't want me to return it to their main warehouse but a 3rd party RMA center which I had to purchase postage to. It arrived there and it's been 3 weeks and I still have no received a refund. Every week they promise a refund but I have not seen it yet. Just going to file a case with my credit card.
When I lived in Memphis, I ordered my first Mac from this outfit. I paid for next-day shipping... Their warehouse was in Memphis. Doncha know, they waited three business days (for a RAM shipment), then shipped my Mac "next day" from the day THEY got my order together. In other words, I paid for next day shipping, and got it a week later. And Mac Mall thought this was okay.
On October 20,2018, I placed an order for item# ******* MFrt part number: BX*******I*******K, an Intel i9 9900k boxed processor for $528.99. This item was listed in stock at the time. On the same day, I received an email from a MacMall rep stating that my order was not available and was cancelled and that the "vendor or distributor has notified us that there will be no more shipments and no estimated time of arrival of this product." The very next day on October 21,2018, the same exact boxed processor with same item number was "in stock" again for $699.99, about a $171 price increase on an item they told me they had no more of and could no longer get anymore of. This feels like a bit of a shady business practice and I want others to know about this. I have the emails and screenshots saved to provide proof. I emailed the rep that contacted me about the cancellation after I saw the drastic price increase, but he never responded.
The worst shopping experience ever! Period. Don't know what more to say then that! In the past it all went good but I'm still busy with my order from a week ago...
I've been purchasing from them since 2008. Their pricing has always been equal or better than the other big reseller sites (CDW and Zones for example), their salespeople are helpful and know their products. When they don't know the answer, they contact an in-house expert who will discuss your situation and make recommendations based on your needs.
Ok, I placed 3 orders during thanksgiving. Missed one call, one of those orders were cancelled. Yes, they double check everything with you multiple times. That's all right I understand. Then I have one of the orders shipped to my company address instead of my apt. Cancelled without notice. Finally, my one last order that was confirmed via phone, they asked toooo many personal information that I almost want to give up. They told me est. Arriving date is Dec. 5. OK, now, I've been waiting for 2 weeks, no updates. And the shipping status is officially 'on back order'. Well done! I will never buy anything from this site anymore. Terrible.
I ordered two 3TB hard drives and they were shipped in a plastic bag with no packing material!
One drive was toast. Then they wanted me to spend 20 minutes on hold waiting for a tech support rep to confirm it was bad, email customer service would not take my word for it.
I called and spoke to a live person who was helpful and he sent me a return label.
Both email support and phone support said it would take much longer to process the return because I used PayPal. Why would anybody ship a very fragile piece of electronic gear in a plastic bag? Makes no sense, and the customer ends up on the short end of the deal.
I order a product was in stock three days have passed and still not sent me the order.
Thousand excuses after waiting 45 minutes on the phone and I can not cancel the order either
Stay away from this company.
Whenever I buy something from apple I never buy directly from the apple store as that is always the highest price. Apple strictly controls pricing of their products so online you can never get a deal. Macmall is the rare exception and they give you 2-3% off of what apple charges at retail. That 2-3 percent can add up if you are spending thousands.
MacMall has a rating of 2 stars from 53 reviews, indicating that most customers are generally dissatisfied with their purchases. Reviewers dissatisfied with MacMall most frequently mention customer service, credit card and next day. MacMall ranks 102nd among Tablets sites.
