Online shopping is not without its risks. When you fall for a cute outfit, there is no guarantee that you’ll get what you thought you were ordering! It’s almost impossible to be sure of the size, the fit and the model. But although we know what we are letting ourselves in for when it comes to clothes shopping, you would imagine that you can’t go wrong with other types of purchases. However, certain online stores have a few surprises in store for unsuspecting customers! Here are 24 people who would have been far better off taking the trip to the local shopping centre….
1/ A dinosaur pillow case
The image sells it well, this cute dinosaur cushion. However, it seems that this self same image is what’s printed on the pillow case! Fair advertising or blatant lying??
2/ A sexy tank top
This gym bunny had the misfortune of ordering a tank top on Amazon. Result: a clingy dress! Which shows off all his best attributes, but maybe not in the way he intended….
3/ A face mask for mini people
This online shopper may be a while removing blackheads!
4/ A deceptive chair
A Philippe Stark chair for only 10 dollars… It does seem a little too good to be true….
5/ A personalised pillow
This man wanted to give his girlfriend a present of a pillow case with his face on it…. We can only imagine her reaction!! (Our money’s on “terror”….)
6/ Fifty shades of grey
An Amazon user who ordered “50 shades of grey” was presented with a sheet of test paper! We’re not sure they were too amused….
7/ A cosy….. string of wool???
Now there’s a case of false advertising if ever we saw one!!
