Times The Delivery Truck Only Brought Regret
Online shopping is one of the riskiest things you can do. There are only a few trusted sites, but even those will give you the runaround at times with their "trusted sellers."
Have you ever ordered something only to receive an imposter version of it? Here's a bunch of people that regretted their purchases once they arrived.
"What My Sister Ordered VS What She Got. Guys, I'm Not Kidding At All"
I would like to know what website she ordered this disaster from so I can know never to shop there.
This isn't even close to what she asked for, but it's hilarious.
"Can't Quite Believe My Eyes"
This isn't as bad as the previous slide, but it's up there.
The advertised rug looks soft and fuzzy, while the one she received looks tattered and like a football.
"What I Wanted To Receive And What I Got"
To be fair, the clouds this person wanted to look like something out of a Marvel movie.
I'm not even sure you can create that without the use of computer effects.
Excited But Received Two Left Shoes
There are few things worse than ordering shoes and finding out they don't fit or it's not what you ordered.
If it's two left feet, the company needs to give you a refund and the right foot.
"When You Forgot To Check The Size Of The Product"
Amazon and other sites have a way of tricking some people when they don't check the size.
An image can fool anybody, but not as much as the fine print.
"Someone Saved Money On Cream"
If this isn't the most basic Oreo I've ever seen, then I don't know what is.
They say it's got the "Most Stuf" but I am not buying it, pal.
"I Was Really Looking Forward To This Shirt"
Whoever sold this shirt and continues to sell them needs to retire.
This isn't as advertised in the slightest, and I feel like someone can sue them for this lie.
"It Lacks Any Visible Coconut Flakes"
There are no coconut flakes in sight, leading this person to believe that there was no stopping the bamboozling.
I hope it tasted okay, despite looking like purple ooze from a cartoon villain.
"I Ordered Wipes Online And This Is What They Sent Me"
Another one falls victim to not checking the size of the product before clicking confirm.
I'm not sure how expensive this was, but hopefully, they didn't waste too much money on this.
"What My Dad Ordered VS What He Got In The Mail"
Wow, this is one of the biggest jokes I've seen! The fish he received look nothing like the ones he thought he would get.
This is an inhumane act against society.
"My 'Full-Sized' Mjolnir Arrived"
He was still happy to get his Marvel toy, even if it wasn't the size he wanted to get.
He can probably give that to a Thor action-figure so it doesn't go to waste.
"AliExpress Is Amazing"
Wait, who knew you could even order chicken pieces that large? What kind of chicken did this person think AliExpress had in their inventory?
That's an enormous piece of poultry.
"What I Bought From AliExpress VS What I Got"
It sounds like AliExpress isn't the place to go if you want something.
This toy looks like the aged version of the real thing with baby powder all on the face.
"Ordered A Sink Rack For $30 (Sale Price). Came In Today..."
You have to take this like a champion. You rolled the dice and got the basket from a deep fryer instead of what you wanted.
That's something you need to buy from the store.
"Ordered Some Reclining Camping Chairs Online..."
Welp, it looks like this person won't have the option of staring at the starry night like the people in the ad are doing.
What a bummer and waste of money!
"Maybe I Just Need To Water It And It'll Grow..."
If only it were that simple. If only we could water things like plants if they aren't the size we want them to be.
Maybe just learn to love the tiny marshmallow cushion you ended up with and take the L.
"Found A Cheap Kitchen Scale—I Feel Like Something Is Missing"
You better start filling in the blanks yourself or think about getting a refund.
Do you want to spend that time writing in numbers, or would you rather get your money back?
She Didn't Get Her Money's Worth
As she sits there with a smile, she can't help but wonder, "How many other people got ripped off like this?"
That's a great question and one we may never solve.
How Off Can You Get?
I'd write a very strong email to the company that sent this to me. The picture advertised looks perfect, but what you get looks like a baby drew it.
No offense to babies—y'all are trying your best.
No Way That's A Unicorn
If that's a unicorn, then my name is LeBron James. Who does Urban Outfitters think they're fooling by selling this product to their loyal customers?
They need to check themselves.
China Caught Doing Wrong
In no way does this look like a swimsuit. These shoes don't even have anything to do with swimming!
This Bre lady should be specific with the website name so we can avoid it.
Is That A Scale For Ants?
Does this person own a bug farm, or was this a bad order? What could anyone possibly use this scale for besides a small portion of rice?
You can maybe use it for spices?
This Is What Fear Looks Like
When you order makeup and get a little animal doll trapped in something, you should have a little fear.
There's no telling what message someone wants to send to you if this wasn't a mistake.
You've Been Ripped Off!!
Did this person buy this off of a Craigslist ad or what? There's no way Amazon would have done this to anybody.
Judging by the size of that thing, this wasn't cheap, either.
Close But No Cigar
The glasses the person wanted to buy look pretty stylish.
The seller probably knows that and used the trendy look to their advantage, leaving someone to receive glasses someone's dad would wear.
"Bought This Hat For A Full-Sized Human..."
Hey, at least a little kid might want to play with this hat, so it won't be a complete waste.
You can even put it on a pet gerbil if you have one.
"My Wife Bought Me Cookie Monster Pajamas For Christmas."
Your wife must want to see you suffer. That suit the person online has on looks like it fits adults perfectly.
Too bad for this guy, he doesn't even get a real cookie.
"The Shirt I Ordered For A Game of Thrones Event And The Shirt I Actually Got."
All the Game of Thrones fans out there just either laughed a lot or snarled at this mistake.
You don't switch Thrones merchandise with some off-brand bologna that sounds highly threatening.
"Ordered A Headrest On Amazon And Got A Poster Of A Headrest"
What if this man needed a headrest to help with sleeping pains and the website was the only one that had it?
They send this out and now he's hurting even longer.
"My Boss Presented Me This Chocolate And I Was Surprised When I Opened It..."
When your boss bamboozles you, you can't do anything but laugh it off.
This person thought they had a full-sized candy bar coming, but this thing is like the chocolate version of air in the bag of chips.
Equally Cuddly And Haunting
Although the bear looks quite huge in the advertisement already, the delivered product might as well be a whole new tenant that won't be paying rent.
They look even bigger than a real roommate would.
You Get What You Pay For
This person bought an iPad from eBay for $5 that shipped from Hong Kong.
I'm not sure what they were expecting when the piece of technology that usually costs at least a couple of hundred dollars was marked down to just FIVE bucks.
Someone Get Customer Service On The Line
This guy ordered two shirts from Old Navy and received 40 pounds of security tags and a coupon. Someone likely got fired that day.
There is still no explanation for this mixup.
A Ring Fit For A Chicken's Finger
You know it's a problem when the ring size is so small it wouldn't even fit your pet. You need some sort of skinny bird with tiny fingers.
Who do they bother manufacturing these products for?
Dusting For Giants
This woman ordered a dustpan on Amazon that was actually intended for giants who want to clean an entire room in one swoop.
Their next challenge is trying to figure out where they can find a broom to match.
Toddlers In The Workforce
This boss ordered chairs for the breakroom and did not get what he expected.
Instead, now he's stuck with a dozen chairs he might as well donate to a kindergarten class, as those are the only butts that would fit in them.
Still In Fashion
He tried to order a tank top to show off his arm muscle gains.
On the bright side, he got a fitted dress that's in a style that will be showing off his leg muscles instead.
Enough Reason To Break Up
This guy's girlfriend made a pillow of him to take for comfort when she went to university.
Instead, she took with her an image of him that will haunt her nightmares and likely cause their breakup when she looks at it for long enough.
Skincare Routine
Imagine you finally cave to all the trends and decide to take on a new cleansing skincare routine that promises to keep you looking vibrant and youthful...only to receive a face mask too small for even your dog to wear.
Hopefully it doesn't shrink your face too.
Punched That Bag Right Out
There are some things you just can't cheap out on, such as sporting equipment.
This is what happens when you buy a $20 punching bag from China—you end up with a piñata instead.
"Thanks to this woman's review, I promptly removed this from my cart!"
You never know how bad a pattern will look until you hold it up to yourself.
Thankfully a disappointed shopper warned another woman before she also became a victim to a bulls-eye right on her chest.
This isn't what they mean by a "build your own" pizza
Reddit user KingHP was already having a bad day when he ordered this pizza, and it seems safe to say that it didn't make things any better. Even for a pizza that was held under someone's arm, the topping sliding that happened here looks like the pizza equivalent of an avalanche.
Unless the delivery driver started tap-dancing on it, it's hard to imagine how the pizza got like this. If they weren't doing it on purpose, what were they doing?
She didn't order a massage puddle
As Reddit user galindatherad explained, she was expecting a soothing massage bar when she ordered the special soap from Lush. However, it seems that things didn't quite go the way she planned.
Whether her package was left next to a furnace or it was just a scorcher when the driver came around, it looks like things got a little too hot for the massage bar. Somehow, it seems doubtful that pouring this congealed mess over someone has the same effect.
The worst part is how proud of this they sound
Pop quiz: You're a delivery driver who's having some trouble finding your customer's home. Do you message them through the app and ask for more details, or do you just leave their order at a random gas station?
If you picked the first option, congratulations! You're officially better at this person's job than they are. Considering how confident and enthusiastic they are about this, the disturbing truth is likely that this driver does this often. Maybe a hungry gas station employee gave them the idea.
This is going to be tough to explain
As Reddit user, Inevitable_Button506 explained, they needed some replacement struts to keep the rear hatch of their car in place. However, it seems that whoever processed their order at Amazon wasn't too concerned about keeping the actual struts in place.
That's because the oversized box they sent it in didn't turn out to be terribly useful for the customer. Once they received the package, they discovered it was just an empty box with a hole in it. Sadly, Amazon doesn't have an "empty package" option when processing returns. Good luck explaining this.
Careful, that's not a piece of tortilla
Since it's covered in cheese and looks similar to the tortilla of this Taco Bell grilled cheese burrito, it would be easy to assume that the strip this person is holding is supposed to be there. Indeed, that must be what every employee who looked at it thought before they sent it away.
However, it turns out that this is actually a strip of plastic, and the customer only realized this because it was unusually chewy. Yeah, that's a new fear to unlock for sure.
Neither customer got their order, but the other one's happier
As Reddit user AttemptedReplacement explained, they had ordered an Apple Watch from Walmart and took advantage of the same-day delivery policy. However, it seems that filling their order was a little too stressful for the store because they ended up with two bottles of antacids instead.
On the one hand, the other customer is probably disappointed to find they'll have to wait longer for relief for their upset stomach. However, it may not be uncomfortable for them when they Google the price of an Apple Watch and discover the bargain they lucked into.
At least they picked the right character for this
Believe it or not, this cake wasn't supposed to show up all messed up. Although a dizzy cartoon character was always perched on top of it, the dazed fellow was supposed to be sitting on a normal cake.
Unfortunately, it seemed life thought it would be a little too poetic to make it seem like this character was perfectly happy until the delivery driver started playing soccer with its cake. It makes for a compelling coincidence but you can't eat that.
For once, this wasn't the delivery driver's fault
To their credit, Reddit user 360inMotion did not blame the delivery driver for the fact that the car seat they ordered sat broken and without a package on their lawn. That's because the alarming truth was that it was intact and boxed up when it arrived.
Unfortunately, they didn't realize it was there when they left the dogs out. Apparently, they went into such a frenzy that they completely obliterated the box and tore the seat up. Was it soaked in a pot of meat sauce or something?
The only explanation is someone rage quitting a job
If it's hard to tell where the FedEx driver left this package, you can understand Reddit user SquidFacedGod's struggle. This was not where they told the driver to put it, the item they ordered was on back order, and FedEx isn't being helpful in finding it.
Considering that "drop it off near a random dumpster" wasn't in the customer's instructions, it's hard not to wonder whether FedEx is so unhelpful because the driver ghosted them, too. Nothing says, "I quit," like leaving a package in a dumpster and running screaming into the woods.
They had an interesting definition of "near"
As Reddit user browntux explained, this isn't where they live. In fact, it turns out that it's not even in the same neighborhood as their home. Worse yet, the driver left it next to a light fixture outside this building, which meant that any bozo could come up and swipe it.
Unfortunately, it seems that's exactly what some bozo did. This is a light fixture, but it's hard not to wonder whether the driver thought it was a mailbox and left it behind when they realized they didn't know how to open it. They obviously can't read an address, so anything's possible.
