Flipkart is selling OnePlus 3 for Rs 18,999; OnePlus co-founder Carl Pei tweets 'what's this?'

Since Pei's tweet, neither Flipkart nor any of the Bansal brothers have responded. Gadget 360 quoted Flipkart as saying, "Flipkart is a marketplace which helps sellers connect with customers across the country. All our sellers are mandated to adhere to stringent guidelines. The prices and discounts for all our sales are decided by the participating sellers and brands."

It is still unclear whether the product being sold is genuine or not.

OnePlus has cautioned interested buyers against the sale saying, "We have an exclusive partnership with Amazon in India. We advice customers to purchase OnePlus products only through official channels as we cannot guarantee the authenticity of the products sold elsewhere."

For those who are interested in buying OnePlus 3 at such a discounted price, Flipkart is the go-to site. However, make sure that you look for warranty and a real deal.
