Hilarious Online Shopping Mishaps
Let’s be honest; we don’t leave our houses because we want to. We get our groceries delivered, we interact with humans on the television, we speak to our family on the phone, we stalk our enemies on social media, and we buy things we need online.
Unfortunately, online shopping isn’t always as impressive as it seems. Yep, these people found this out for themselves.
Not impressed
Unfortunately, this cat wasn’t too impressed when it realized that their castle was a little understated. It couldn’t even fit one adorable paw pad on that thing.
Surprise!
We’d advise against writing any delivery instructions in detail. This woman discovered this the hard way when her mum caught wind of the “surprise” party supplies.
A Little Small
This patterned rug was a great price, it looked cool, and it would be a perfect addition to their hallway. There was just one problem. At least they found another use for it.
Peekaboo
When this customer fell in love with this cozy looking cardigan they found on the interweb, they decided to give it a go. It was just a bit of material, so what could go wrong?
A Geography Lesson
We’re no experts when it comes to geography, but we do know that the Eiffel Tower is not in London. We have to come to the conclusion that this is a pretty bad online shopping fail.
Pooh? Is that you?
These sheet masks have proved to be hugely popular over the years, but we won’t be adding this one to our online shopping carts anytime soon. It’s not cute and it’s certainly not Pooh.
A Bargain
When this person saw a television stand on Amazon for a very competitive price, she just couldn’t deny herself the luxury.
Real Yeezys
Unless you’ve been living under a rock for the past few years, you’ll know that Yeezy sneakers are the bomb diggity. These, unfortunately were a little off the mark.
Cool Loafers
They got some loafers instead. Get it? Loaf? Bread? We’ll just leave.
The Perfect Fit
Your animals basically become your children, and you wouldn’t leave your kids out in the cold without a jacket, would you? One owner decided to purchase an adorable coat for their dog.
Designer Catwear
This cheaper Converse backpack seemed like the ultimate bargain, but this customer soon realized why. At least this cat now looks super swaggy in his designer garmz.
Looking Purrrfect
Sure, this crochet bikini wouldn’t fit the human that ordered it online, but it looks pretty special on this purrrrfect kitty. In fact, it’s a little scary how well this fits the cat.
A Little Different
While we can’t say much about the bottom of the dress, the embellishments on top are slightly awry. Actually, it’s like a whole different dress.
False Advertising
Sometimes, what looks like pictures of the product in action are actually pictures of the product. You know what we mean, right?
The Specifics
This man thought he had scored the coolest rug for his room and even high-fived himself for being a competent adult. He swiftly retracted that high five once it arrived.
Cool Flippers
Many people try to make it easier for themselves by buying clothes online, but it seems as though this doesn’t always take the stress away.
The Substitution
This woman ordered some daffodils to brighten up her living room, and she got some spring onions in response. We mean… we don’t even have any words right now.
The Model Look
Although the models who wear the clothes you love online look pretty darn incredible, it’s important to remember that things aren’t quite what they seem.
Making Sure
If you come across some furniture online that seems weirdly cheap, we have some advice for you. Read the instructions with a fine tooth comb – it’s probably furniture for a doll’s house.
A Dog’s Life
It seems as though more than one person has been struck down by the tiny-rug-trick, but this definitely worked in favor of this doggy.
Tiny Chopping
This person really wanted to buy a chopping board that caught the crumbs in the bottom, and they weren’t going to stop until they had one in their life. Maybe they’re making a teeny tiny toasted sandwich.
The Smallest Feet
We all know about those boots that were made for walking, but it seems as though these boots definitely weren’t made for walking. Not for a human, anyway.
Flower Power
Every single bunch of flowers is different, and it just so happened that this bunch definitely didn’t look anything like the picture.
Monsters, Inc.
Who wouldn’t want a giant Sully onesie? Although we are considering returning them because Sully’s face isn’t quite as cute as we remember it from the film.
Princess Leia
When you have a costume party on the calendar, the internet can definitely be your costume friend. If we could give you any advice, though, it would be to avoid the Princess Leia costume.
Expectation vs. Reality
If you’ve ever used an online dating platform, you’ll know that appearances can be a little deceiving. One wig fanatic found this out for themselves when they were cat-fished by this little red number.
The Mirror
This woman thought she had grabbed herself the ultimate bargain when she bought this “Floor-Length Mirror” online. You could say it’s not quite what she expected.
Cooking Up A Storm
This customer decided to cut some costs and buy a super cheat pot and pan set to cook up a storm in the kitchen. Although, they were only big enough to cook up a slight breeze.
Dressing Up
This beautiful dress looks like a winner, so we don’t blame this woman for buying it. Unfortunately, things just weren’t meant to be, because this dress became the ultimate flamingo catfish.
The Mask
This woman probably wasn’t too happy when this face mask barely covered her forehead. We don’t know whose head is that small, because that’s impressive.
The Oversized Look
If you’re up to date with your fashion, you’ll know that the over sized look is totally in. Of course, there is a point where this becomes ridiculous.
Pinky Ring
Although most people like to buy their wedding rings in an actual shop, there are others who decide to risk it. What even is this? Is it a ring for ants?
A Fancy Chair
Buying furniture online is a great way to get someone else to deliver it. Little did he know that it wasn’t an adult chair at all, but one for a kid. At least he can still sit in it?
Family-Sized
What this family realized is that the size wasn’t as advertised at all. In fact, this looks like someone just shoved a load of yarn in the mail. That’s what they did, right?
Bob Moss
Bob Ross will always be a legend in the world of popular culture, so it comes as no surprise to learn that these kinds of products exist. After all, who wouldn’t want to go cress from his head?
Not to Scale
When you notice that it’s pretty cheap, you add it to your basket straight away without thinking it through. Our advice? Always look at the sizes and the dimensions.
Tent For Two
This man thought he had found the ultimate bargain in this two-person tent. What he didn’t realize was that it meant two tiny people, rather than two adult people.
Room For The Rug
Wonder if this man thought when he ordered this purple rug online, whether the price was a little too good to be true. The verdict? It was.
The Husky Cuddle
After all, bigger is better when it comes to soft toys, right? This kid soon realized that appearances can be deceiving, because this husky was a little smaller than the one advertised.
The Dino Pillow
Make sure you look at the photo before you order. It turns out that the little boy is actually part of the design. No, we have no idea why either. It’s one of life’s mysteries.
Legs for Days
Some people are short, some are tall, and apparently, some are giants. Maybe it would be better to just return them.
Bear Necessities
One customer was more than willing to shell out over $100 on this bear but had no idea that they were buying a bear with giant legs.
A Costume Party
It’s fair to say that this customer received a bit of a shock when she received this particular “tail.” Just take a good look at it. You’ll get it.
Blocking the Sun
This guy was a little confused when he bought some drapes and received this tiny little thing. I mean, that’s not going to do anything.
No Fuss
The picture that we see on the page is exactly the picture that is posted on the mug, but we have a feeling that the person who bought it was expecting something else.
Table for Ants
One homeowner couldn’t believe their eyes when they saw the price of two dining chairs on a particular site. They just had to buy them, didn’t they? Well, this was the result.
Keeping it Cool
When the sun begins to beat down, it’s always a good idea to invest in a small pool. Make sure you take note of just how small it is, though. Otherwise, you might be a little surprised when it turns up.
On the Scale
Many sellers will try and swindle money from customers around the world, and it seems as though this customer became one of their victims.
Big Spoon
They were expecting a normal-sized spoon that would be like any other on the internet or in stores. The world works in mysterious ways, though, and this spoon is truly something special.
Camping Stove
Yes, this is proof that appearances really can be deceiving, because we don’t think this would be useful in cooking anything…
