25 funny and offensive bummers of online shopping (26 photos)
Shopping online can be very convenient. But there is a catch: a gullible buyer can be lured by cheap prices and deceived. Some offers look too good to be true! And no one is immune from ordinary mistakes.
1. “I decided to try the Shutterfly mobile app and order my own custom-designed Christmas cards. I mixed it up and sent the wrong photo from the gallery, and now I have 90 postcards like this.”
2. “Now I have a huge wooden spoon.”
“Basically, the spoon came in a set of three packages of spaghetti packaged in a single line. It was just glued to this long package as a joke (so I thought). But it turns out that such huge spoons are actually used - for stirring in huge pots.”
3. A note with a comment to the delivery man was pasted into the card instead of a happy birthday greeting.
The note said: “My mother is 91 years old, so please knock on the front window and go to the back door. She is slightly deaf and moves slowly.”
4. Mid-thigh shorts
5. “We need a white cake, no drawings or writing, just red icing around the edges.”
6. Always check the dimensions before purchasing household appliances
7. “Ordered 3 XL, received 13 XL”
8. “No thanks, I don’t need engraving on my iPad.”
9. “Cupcakes from a local bakery. Above is their advertising, below is what they brought to us.”
10. “Please use the attached logo.”
“Now our company has 900 of these pens.”
11. “The mask that came with the Batman costume”

16. “I ordered battered onion rings.”
17. “Lucky day: ordered glasses on Amazon, received 11 pairs”
18. "Less Than Expected"
19. “When you buy a stained glass lamp for $20-30 on Amazon with bad/no reviews.”
“All the ads listed prices between $20 and $30 and used the same photo of the product, just edited with different backgrounds. Most had no reviews, some had bad reviews, but most people at least got something 3D!”
20. “I ordered one sweatshirt for my child, and now Amazon keeps sending boxes of them. There are more than 62 hoodies here"
21. Advertised as "pod"armchair"
22. Expectation and reality
