Compumail omits important info in its listing but doesn't acknowledge fault
I have a Bosch battery-driven Advanced Rotak lawnmower, and they make a battery-driven model called the Advanced Rotak 40-650. I wanted to buy one, Googled it, and found it on Compumail's website. I looked at the site, then looked through the Specifications, then ordered it. When I received it, the largest words on the box were "Corded Lawnmower." Apparently Bosch makes both a battery-driven 40-650 and a corded 40-650. Compumail had neglected to mention anywhere that it was corded. When I contacted them, I asked them to pay for return shipping, because the site listing didn't even mention that it was corded. Compumail's customer service claimed it was my fault, because I had only looked at the Compumail ad, and didn't check the product at the manufacturer's website. I wrote several times. They never acknowledged any fault and never agreed to pay for shipping. (I never opened the box.) This is pretty bad customer service -- blaming the customer for not knowing what should have been written on the product listing. LATER NOTE: Compumail responded that "it is the customers responsibility to read our specifications on our website." I DID READ the specifications on the website. Nowhere in the specifications does it noted that it is a corded lawnmower!
