30 people who deeply regretted buying online
Buying online can be great... You can purchase items not found in your area, order from the comfort of your sofa at any time of day or night, benefit from cheaper prices and then just wait for your parcel to be delivered!
But there's also the downside... Parcels that take an eternity to arrive, items damaged during transport or, as in this case, goods that turn out be nothing like the photo or specs on the website!
Sometimes, however, it's because we can't be bothered to read the small print or check sizing charts, and we reckon these 30 people won't be making the same mistake next time around (if they ever buy online again!).
1. When you buy a tank top for the gym and receive a clingy mini-dress...
2. When you buy your kid an adorable pillow only to find the child in the photo is actually part of the design!
3. When you buy your girlfriend a cushion with your photo printed on the front... We wonder how long this relationship will last!
4. A sheet mask for dolls?
5. We so hope this lady managed to get a refund!
6. This lady fell in love with this chair... Until it arrived!
7. When you expect to receive a book rather than a color chart
8. A cozy throw that arrived in kit form!
9. Always double check the size before you order online!
10. When your order is 'hopeless' because someone can't spell
11. Never assume that cheaper goods will last as long as high-end products
12. Yep, this was sold as a chainsaw!
13. When you order a pair of sneakers that turn out to be slippers

16. For someone who has two left feet!
18. This guy bought cut price chairs for his office... Cut price clearly meant cut size!
19. This has to be the weirdest fail in clothing history!
20. When Amazon sends you a giant dustpan
21. He ordered a set of scales... At least the color's pretty!
22. Some retailers really don't care
23. Oh dear... We can't stop laughing!
24. Another kit form throw!
25. They didn't lie by saying 'giant', but they could have added 'mutant'!
26. When your sneakers arrive stuffed with underwear
27. When you and your friends decide to buy a pool for the summer
28. When the vitamins you ordered turn out to be 'Chinese finger traps'...
29. A giant husky that shrank during transport!
30. Always make sure you buy from the brand's official site if you want to avoid cheap fakes
