When you’re purchasing something as simple as a bouquet of flowers, the last thing you would expect is your order getting all messed up. Colleen thought all was well and prepared when she placed an order on 1-800-Flowers just in time to surprise her boyfriend for his 28th birthday.
She had the brilliant idea of getting a bouquet shaped like a Golden Retriever’s face, her boyfriend’s favorite dog breed. As excited as she was to make her boyfriend smile, she disappointingly received this monstrosity of a bouquet. What came in her door ended up looking like a melted, sad attempt at a cartoon.
Ho Ho Horrible
When Christmas season approaches, one of the most anticipated activities that everybody loves doing is prepping the Christmas tree. It’s definitely something to look forward to doing with the family around. Since nobody likes ending up with a sad, bare, and naked tree without any branches or leaves, people usually turn to the plastic versions instead. Unfortunately, this buyer didn’t have any luck on his side when he received this wretched little plastic thing.
He was under some major false pretense in thinking he was going to receive a full and healthy-looking plastic tree. What a blow to the Christmas spirit!
Size Matters
After moving into his new college apartment with his roommate Tom, George thought all logistics would go smoothly after he agreed to chip in with the general shopping. Since Tom already purchased some curtains for the living room windows, George went ahead and decided to buy a rug to complete the look.
Apparently, he didn’t spend enough time reading through the information because what he ended up with was this tiny piece of cloth that resembles a bookmark! This pathetic little thing obviously was of no use to them.
Poor Pooch
At the old canine age of 13, Tiny the dog was long past his puppy days in dealing with the cold. With the winter season fast approaching, he surely needed something to keep him warm as the temperatures were about to drop drastically. As such, his owner knew to search for a doggy coat online to keep Tiny feeling comfortable and warm.
Already expecting to receive the right fit after making sure of the dimensions stated on the site, his owner ended up with a coat that was way smaller than expected! It turns out the company’s measurements were still way off! Poor Tiny!
Stilts Not Included
Well aware of the horror stories that online shoppers share about their misleading purchases, George decided to do his research in order to not fall victim to the same situation. Being the overly cautious shopper he already is, he decided to make sure that the jeans he was buying from ASOS had the right length.
Satisfied with the information provided on the site, he went ahead and bought the jeans. Little did he know that ASOS can make mistakes, too. They ended up having measurements that were way off! What he expected to be 32 inches in length, turned out WAY longer! This pair would definitely have him looking like slender man!
