Online shopping is super convenient, a whole world of products and services to choose from that will get delivered to your doorstep at the click of a button. However, there is, of course, a price to pay for all this convenience and cheap stuff.
Firstly, you don't get to physically touch, smell, and judge the actual dimensions of a product like you would in a shop. This can lead to all kinds of misunderstandings and even epic fails, mainly if you are dealing with some unscrupulous companies from less regulated countries.
Then there is the waiting. Your ordered goodies could get stuck in customs, and the wrong product could've been sent by mistake, it also might get broken in transit. It could end up being an awfully long time between you clicking 'buy' on the online shopping site and actually receiving a satisfactory product in your hand! However, these are the risks we take for a bargain, and not having to drag around town looking for something in a shop. We here at Bored Panda had compiled a list of times when online shopping fails went hilariously wrong, as a kind of cautionary tale. Do your research on counterfeit goods before you click that button! Scroll down below to check the expectations vs reality photos out for yourself, as well as some previous posts here, here and here, and share your own shopping fails experiences in the comments!

This Patch I Ordered Off Amazon...
Of course on rare occasions it can go the other way, and you can receive something even better than what you expected. I know which badge I'd prefer in this case! Sometimes the world makes us all want to pack up and leave

This made me bust out laughing. I want to leave too! The one received was so much better than the one they wanted. Why 'believe' when you can just 'leave' instead?! Solves all issues!

Photo Evidence Of Earrings That Never Arrived
How do you provide photo evidence of something that's not there? This Twitter user ordered some earrings on the popular Chinese online retailer AliExpress, and they just didn't show up. It's probably happened to you too at one point, hasn't it? Usually the company will find the problem and make sure the product gets to you ASAP, but not this time. They wanted to be sure they weren't being tricked. "Show us that you don't have the earrings," they demanded. WTF?? This is Iris' cheeky attempt to comply.

I ordered and expensive set of Japanese chisels through Amazon. They were packed in a bubble envelope. I received a torn envelope, an invoice and nothing else.

Incredible Unicorn Calendar From Amazon
So far, this gem has a 1-star rating on Amazon and judging by the reviews, it doesn't look like it's going to rise anytime soon. Buyers are complaining that "the photos inside are not at all like the cover." They are line and stick drawings, not mythical scenes.

I Ordered A Smart Light Bulb And Got A Chrome Fidget Spinner In A Light Bulb Box
The review he left on Amazon was spot on:
"I ordered this item on a cold Sunday night, and was pleasantly surprised on Monday morning when a package arrived with my name on it. I eagerly opened my Amazon package, giddy with the promise of 120 colours to brighten up my bedroom, and when I found a light bulb sized box emblazoned with the words "Smart RGBW Bulb" I was delighted, all was going to plan.
However, my hopes of multi-coloured illumination came crashing down, I was shocked. I felt as if the 265 volts that were meant to be running through my smart light bulb were running through me. To my dismay, and with a growing feeling of confusion, I realized I was not the proud owner of a WIFI Smart Bulb, I was instead the bewildered owner of a chrome fidget spinner, fidget spinner case, and a small screwdriver (despite there seeming to be no screw head on the spinner).
Now, with my tail between my legs, and Hermes en route to collect my fidget spinner, I am forced to endure additional nights of bland, colourless light.
I have many questions, where is my bulb? Why did a fidget spinner come in a light bulb box? Why is this available on prime? Who hired someone who can confused a light bulb and a fidget spinner, and how dark must their house be? All questions I doubt I will ever get answers to.
I'm summary, order a different light bulb. Unless you want a fidget spinner, then this is the light bulb for you."

Reminds me of when I ordered a tailored costume and I gave my hip/butt size, they emailed me saying that "No one has such big hips" and made the size of the pants to small...Yeah okay chinese person far far away that has never seen me, thank you for telling me what my measurments are.

I don't get how people, afer all those "dissapointed in dress that came from Aliexpress/Amazon/Wish" articles still buy clothing in those "stores". How blatantly [instert stupid/ignorant/naive or w/e else you want here] you have to be? :/

And to think that physically going to a store to get stuff is becoming less and less common. It's also upsetting to think that we'll have to deal with getting scammed via online shopping 24/7 in the future because nobody will shop in physical stores anymore. It will be a really sad day for people who want actually decent service when we switch to online shopping completely in the future. I tried to buy some Lululemon leggings for a cheaper price off of Amazon, plain black, size 4, got leggings that were labeled "Size 4" on the tag, but were big enough to be considered a size 8. Tried them on once, couldn't even get them to stay on my hips. I don't want to have to expect this in the future with online shopping. When brick and mortar stores disappear, it will be a very sad day for me. Be careful when online shopping, people!

I just don't have the energy to go to stores, disabled changing rooms are awkward and changing once is exhausting. Staff get irritated with my chair, I get tired of snide comments. If I get up the energy to go to a shop, highly unlikely I'll be able to try it on, so I might as well order online if I'm going to be trying it on at home anyway. 😂 Not all online places are bad, but if your are getting something that looks like it's worth £50 to £150 for £4.99, it's highly likely to be c**p.

"78 People Who Deeply Regret Shopping Online" --> Rather 78 people who deeply regreted shopping crappy items at suspiciously low prices from even more suspicious shops or sellers.

You might add that many even ordered obviously wrong sizes, did not read about the dimensions, or plainly had wrong items shipped that any half-decent shop would immediate accept for a return. This series is disappointing compared to similar series we had before.

A lot of these are sad but funny. I shop online a lot and have never run into these types of issues. I have purchased from Wish and Ali express, but always have a way to convert the measurements that the item is saying online or you will end up with these same types of items. I dont purchase clothes, electronics or furniture online unless it is from a place with a physical location that i can return it to. Sadly even reviews these days are phony but I definitely do my homework on big item purchases before I click checkout. But these are hilarious.

it happened to me recently. They sent something completely not what they put online. I am still waiting for their refund after paying return shipping fee $20.00

I hope Bored Panda doesn't cut this article down like they do with almost all of them. It's funny. Why can't they go back to pages like they had before? 10 on each, nice and easy to load too.

A lot of the clothing look like "Wish" orders, quality clothing doesn't come at the cheap dollar store prices.
