50 Hilarious Experiences Of People Receiving Not What They Had Ordered
The advent of online shopping drastically changed the world as we know it. Finally, we didn’t have to spend hours driving from store to store to find exactly the dress or couch that we had in mind. Instead, we could just hop online from the comfort of our homes, type in a few keywords and find endless options at our fingertips. However, this is a blessing and a curse. Because when we don’t get to see items in person, we don’t always know exactly what we’re paying for.
One page that knows this all too well is the What I Ordered Vs. What I Got Instagram account. This page features hilarious photos of online shopping fails that occurred when people put way too much faith in a product that’s price was too good to be true. Enjoy scrolling through these tragic images, and be sure to upvote the ones that have convinced you to stop shopping online for good!

Do you guys not check out the dimensions of the stuff you're buying. Remember that a "good" deal on furniture isn't a good deal if you buy something for $200 without checking it out first, and get mini-furniture.

I want to stop scrolling, but all these posts are as tempting as rubber-necking at a horrific accident.

I am a former cake decorator. This one is actually not too hard to do if you use fondant which rolls out easy and is pliable similar to play dough. The hair and mouth are black frosting out of piping bag. My question is why did they add teeth?

This is relative, tho. The girl on the left may have extensions and thicker hair than the girl on the right, she did get what she asked for, that is the hair style.

I don’t understand how all these people think they can order what are clearly couture dresses online from discount sites and think the result will be anything other than disastrous.

What is it with all these ugly dresses, though? I mean, the afters are a travesty, but the befores are horrendous anyway.

They're both awful. Surely no-one actually ordered a cake wanting something like either of these.

Ladies, if the dress only costs $10 it's probably NOT going to look like the pic!

Looks pretty identical. People seem to expect the body types are included the clothes

From what you can see in the picture, the one on the right seems fine.

A little steaming, a little tooling, it won’t be too bad! (At least in comparison to the others here…)

Wigs do need styling sometimes. Don't know what could be done for this one though

A number of these appear to be a case of ordering the wrong size and even more seem to be a case of “the dress won’t make your body look like the model’s”.

Advice for buying clothes. You get what you pay for; don't buy from Temu or Shein. Read reviews; on Amazon, I won't buy anything with less than 100 reviews, with pictures. Read product descriptions, I need to know what the item is made from. I will not wear polyester. And finally, know your body type. No matter how accurate the item is, it will look different on you than the (probably photoshopped) model. Also, make sure the company has a clear return policy.

I like to look for any photos that resemble my body and frame too in Reviews to really let it sink in wether it’s actually going to look good on me or I’m just imagining it
