Do you share the common hate of going to the mall, spending loads of time walking in an out of shops and trying clothes in suspicious booths? Then you might just agree that online shopping is one of the best inventions ever. Unlimited choice of goodies just a click away eliminates the need to go out of your cozy home and allows to shop more comfortable. Also, if you have to wait at least couple of weeks for delivery, a good chance is, that you've already forgotten about your order, so it's just like getting a present from yourself.
All of this sounds great, but there are millions of proofs that this perfect story can end up as an online shopping fail. Thought you had ordered a TV stand for an outrageously good price? It turns out it's for a dollhouse. Bought a fabulous prom dress? Don't get too excited, because it will probably look like a potato sack. Sure, reading the description and reviews might save you from these funny fails, but if it did happen, at least there's something to laugh about!
Check out our list of the ultimate fails when people got nothing like they expected to get. And if these online shop fails are not enough, check our dissapointing dresses that were ordered online.

I Bought This Cup For My Wife Expecting It To Change From A Black Cup To A Christmas Scene

Rochelle Miller 9 years ago
This is a perfect example of what an infringer does. Whoever sold you this item stole the original design from a actual cup that does change color when a hot/col beverage is in it, and sold it to you for a lower cost. I am a Zazzle storekeeper/designer and many of us are experiencing this. There are thieves out there stealing our designs and putting them on their products. Most of them are Amazon sellers from overseas. Buyer beware!
Jude 9 years ago
I haven't bought anything on Amazon from oversea sellers. But it's so true what you wrote. Buyers need to carefully scrutinize photos of the product as well as carefully read reviews giving 1-2 star ratings to judge if it's worth buying. Or simply don't buy from such places. It's good the buyer gave his review. Hopefully, someone will read it and learn.

Actually, having worked as a volunteer lifeguard for many years I can assure you - even for a 16 year old - this is comparatively modest. It is designed as a bikini and those are not exactly known for prudence at the beach - just fashion. Hen I swim, ear bathers that will actually protect me from a/ having the suit come off in the water and b/ being crispy fried. I live in Australia and have also been cursed with a naturally large chest on a petite frame, so I could never pull this look off. But if her daughter can, more power to her.

What Size Is This?
Reno Frissen 9 years ago
When you buy clothes, made in China, check the sizing guide, or contact the seller regarding the size. A US small would translate into a L or even XL. Once you keep that in mind, some deals are really not that bad. Speaking from experience here.

Don't shop Rottita, Zulliy or Shien That is China B******t, you see a picture and order it and when it comes it is NOTHING like the picture, wrong color, different size, broken falling apart, piece of plastic c**p. They say shipping with in 3-5 days, but actual delivery can be up to a month away. I have stopped shopping on AMAZON cause they are not up front about the sellers being from China. I keep trying to get a filter for "actual" sellers they can't provide that information. I think Amazon needs to be more transparent.

Ok kids let's learn something now about dimensional measurement. When you see an apostrophe after a number that stands for feet. When you see a quotation mark after a number that stands for inches. So for lengths you could see. 2'6" x 36" this is two feet, six inches by thirty six inches. I could get into what they mean when dealing with angular minutes and angular seconds but I would just confuse people.

Never Again Will I Order A Dress From China. Never Again

Nope not all of them. I make a living off from selling prom, wedding and evening dresses ordered from china and so far only one oops and that was my test run. You have to know what to look for. Like their percentage rating, below 99% is no go buy. Custom made should not be chosen even if the rating is 100% cause, well you will get what she got, instead look for sellers that let you choose your size and colour then you know it will come out like the pic. Always make double sure of rating, it can be 100% and still have neg feed back and read them it'll help you to know if you should trust them or not. And anything saying wholesale usually come out the same. Descriptions are there for you to read so read it it will enlighten you on the right sizing etc. Always measure yourself cause china size are always smaller than your country's sizes even if it's available in those sizes. They do provide sizing charts.

We knew it probably wouldn't be quite the right size for our Danes, but what we thought we were buying and what came was pretty different. Not faulting the product or the seller at all. That's why I titled it "It's hard to shop for Danes", because often "large" or even "X large" is still not Dane sailed. And if there had been an "X Large" option, we would have bought it. It actually still works great though, truth be told. Now I can cook without counter level faces up in my business. ????

The problem is that it's hard to find tall gates for Danes. It just is. Yes, I could have done more research on this, but I still think "large" is a little misleading for this product. And if it's in reference to length, then call it long, not large. There's no such thing as extra tall for Great Danes so I bought the biggest, most highly rated I could find. That said, this gate works great, it turns out. The dogs respect the barrier, and it's easy to climb over for us. It all worked out. 😊

i feel this is: 1 over inflated. and 2 not tied around the head like the picture shows...so all in all an exaggeration.

Exactly what I was thinking. Like people who can't figure out how to assemble their Ikea furniture. Wonder if there are any of those on the list X'D

Haha, seriously. You buy anything this tacky, you deserve to get ripped off.

It’s a choice between the long poop with eyes and the snake belt. Pick one, neither are good.

You're looking at the back side of the top half of the suit sewn to the front side of the bottom of the suit! Kind of hard to wear that way.

Find a seamstress to fix it or get your money back. Whatever suits your fancy. I sew so I would be the person fixing it. Unless I just felt too lazy to do it or I just didn't want to.

I make a living off from selling prom, wedding and evening dresses ordered from china and so far only one oops and that was my test run(testing the waters out). You have to know what to look for. Like their percentage rating, below 99% is no go buy. Custom made should not be chosen even if the rating is 100% cause, well you will get what she got, instead look for sellers that let you choose your size and colour then you know it will come out like the pic. Always make double sure of rating, it can be 100% and still have neg feed back and read them it'll help you to know if you should trust them or not. And anything saying wholesale usually come out the same. Descriptions are there for you to read so read it it will enlighten you on the right sizing etc. Always measure yourself cause china size are always smaller than your country's sizes even if it's available in those sizes. They do provide sizing charts.

i don't order clothes off of untrusted site, just stores that I know I can returned. I shop on eBay and Amazon a lot, never have any problem with products.. even items from China.

It's not always the bargain you think it is. We need to read the fine print thoroughly. If it seems too good to be true, it probably is.

You can also use a plugin in Chrome to check for fake reviews on amazon. IT's named "Fakespot - Analyze Fake Amazon Reviews". You can find it at https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/fakespot-analyze-fake-ama/nakplnnackehceedgkgkokbgbmfghain?utm_source=chrome-app-launcher-info-dialog My suggestion is to simply avoid all other online sales. Too risky.

Tips to avoid these epic failures: 1. always check dimension, sizes and material. communicate with the seller if possible. 2. look into product reviews. check validity of websites. choose trusted sites only. 3. think twice on huge discounts. are they still reasonable? nobody will sell really good items for super low prices. there will always be a catch to it. 4. always remember that the pic they post are for reference only. ask for actual pics if possible. take consideration the difference between your realistic body and the model or mannequin wearing the items you want to buy.

Those who received doll house sized items are just dumb. The moral of the story, don't be easily lured by the lower price. First, be suspicious if you see if the product comes with an unusually lower price than it supposed to be. Second, always read the description (if) the seller is honest with the product.

I have purchased hundreds of products online quite happily with no issues. Ebay, Light in the Box, ALIEXPRESS, Banggood, Tmart, etc with no problems none of these sites play games to the extent that this article implies. Ebay has had issue with Hijacked venders offering stupidly low prices on things but they catch it and you get your money back. I actually got a projector for $15 the vendor honored the mistake. but these people must be shopping from Morons R US or arent paying attention to the descriptions and sizes. Thats there own fault. It doesnt change the fact that Im tired of going into stores and seeing an item for $299. that is sold for $49.99 online. I found out that 2 stores I buy from regularly buy from the same online company that I do... in fact I spoke to one store and I get things cheaper than he does.. So I understand this as a propoganda story to scare buyers into shopping live but when you compare your almost a fool to ignore the massive savings.
