Angry customers is the understatement of the week…
Samsung are facing a deluge of disgruntled customers, rage and outright petty name calling on their facebook page due to the apparent short supply of the much anticipated Galaxy S4.
NOT HAPPY!! I missed out!! Virgin mobile only had 200units on release day!!?? WHAT A JOKE!
Not happy. Why have a a date for the release date for the galaxy s4 but not supply any stores with hand sets.
On the Gold Coast not one store has them. Not happy.
and
WOW – What a marketing fail Samsung! Setting expectations without being able to deliver!! That mistake should be covered in Marketing lecture #1! I think today you just got yourself thousands of disappointed/upset Samsung phone customers! *not happy* that I cannot find a WHITE Samsung Galaxy 4 anywhere!
These are just a few of the posts from outraged customers who can’t get the most anticipated phone of the year on release day. Now, to take the objective view: It does appear that these enraged customers failed to take early action and pre-order the device on any of the carriers and simply expected to walk in and buy the device off the shelf…
But that is neither here nor there. Samsung’s expectation to sell 10 million units inside one month from release should have rang alarm bells for anyone who was keen on the Galaxy S4 and at least triggered them to register interest if not placing pre-orders.
It’s always best to put your name down for any device you’re eager to get your hands on, either that or accept that you may in fact miss out on the first run of devices that are available.
