“What I Ordered Versus What I Got”: 50 Hilarious Online Shopping Fails (New Pics)
Interview With Expert
If something sounds too good to be true, it probably is. We recognize that when we come across catfish on dating apps and when we receive text messages promising a “free iPhone if you click this link in the next 5 minutes!” But apparently, many of us need a reminder to be wary of what we're buying when we shop online too.
Bored Panda has scoured the internet to find the most hilarious examples of “what I ordered versus what I received.” From outfits that look nothing like the photos featured on the website to products that are much larger or smaller than anticipated, we hope you get a kick out of this list, pandas. Keep reading to also find a conversation with Courtney Carver, creator of Be More With Less, and remember, always read the reviews before making a purchase!

My Dad Was Enthralled By The Size Of The Aluminum Foil He Purchased Online

Ah, online shopping. It’s extremely convenient when you need something specific in a pinch, and you don’t have time to go searching through ten different shops. But there are certainly risks involved as well. What if your typical size doesn’t actually fit? What if the object arrives broken after a long journey in transit? And what if what you receive looks absolutely nothing like what you saw in the photo?
When it comes to the pros and cons of ordering items online, The Balance says there are many. But let’s start off on a positive note: it’s convenient, there’s a much larger selection than in stores, and it’s easy to access product information. You can online shop at night if you can’t make it to the store before they close, and you can read dozens of reviews to ensure you make an informed purchase.

Like I posted earlier, avoid Temu unless you like to waste time and money.
On the flip side, however, there are definitely some aspects of online shopping that aren’t great. First things first, it can be more expensive. You will likely have to pay for shipping, and you might even get hit with an internet sales tax, depending on where you live.
And as we’ve seen from this list, there’s an increased risk of fraud when buying online. You can’t see exactly what you’re getting until it arrives, and it’s a lot easier for scammers to get your credit card information through a fake website than through a suspicious link in an email. Consumers have to be vigilant when determining whether or not a website is safe.

I do find these fake products weird. Like, if you're going to steal customers' money, why not just do it? It's obviously not a mistake. And I can't imagine anyone is either more or less protected from complaints, penalties etc if they send fake s**t rather than nothing at all. I don't get the point.
Veronica Jean 1 year ago
There are much steeper consequences for straight up stealing someone's money than if you actually provide a service or sell them something. It goes from being a straight-up scam to being a complicated legal issue because technically you got a good source service. So yes, if you provide a good or a service, you are more legally protected even if it is clearly a scam.

Courtney was kind enough to have a chat with Bored Panda and share her thoughts on shopping online.
"It is a nice convenience and an accessibility factor you may not see shopping otherwise. For some though, it can be a little too convenient," she noted. "There's no friction, no pause required before buying something you may not even really want or need."
"Because online shopping can be so immediate, some people add to cart when they are trying to self-soothe. You might try to shop away pain, like the pain of boredom, frustration or insomnia. Usually, none of these ailments are relieved in the end, and now you own one more thing and may have a little more debt, which leads to more pain."

ॐBoyGanesh 1 year ago (edited)
THIS! It’s likely 3rd party seller also using 3rd party distribution. You’ll see it like this: there will be tons of an item at almost identical pricing listed. Then one that’s 5-20% cheaper. If this storefront contracts for Amazon Logistics to deliver (opposed to 3rd party delivery) and the distribution company also offers Amazon as a delivery option, this particular item will *also* have the “Prime” option for delivery speed. This makes it look as bona fide as all the rest of the costlier sellers. There’s some subtle differences tho, which includes how the return/ replace policy works, which follows guidelines required by Amazon LLC, but doesn’t have to adhere to same “consumer protections”. Leaving the “contract of sale” between the purchaser and the storefront, with Amazon LLC & Logistics absolved. So if there are 20 prime search results for an Apple Watch for $399 and one for $350, pay the extra $49 for one that’s sold by Apple or directly from Amazon LLC.

Bought A "Brand New" Jacket Online. Found This Inside The Pocket
LillieMean 1 year ago (edited)
Now a limited time offer includes a new identity! It is unfortunately common to order clothes and keep them for one night, for example for a party, and then return them "unworn". Some serially order clothes to take pictures of them on social media and then return them. People have reported clothes smelling of cigarettes or sweat, dirty, and a pacifier was found in the pocket of one of the new jackets. Some stores already have a limit on how many orders a single person can make per month, and if you return a lot, you will be banned from ordering.
David 1 year ago
Lillie, I know a family who did that for their daughters' prom dresses. It was in the days before internet so local stores - but buy dress, wear to prom, return. We thought it was pretty horrible behavior. I guess it happens because in years since I've also seen signs on prom dress sales saying the prom dresses (but not their other regular clothes) were not returnable.

Years ago a place I worked at a girl in the office had twin girls. She went to Thalheimers and bought expensive dresses just to have Christmas pics done. This was in the mid 80's because my oldest was born in 89. Those baby dresses were over $50 each. She did other c**p like that, champagne taste with cheap beer budget working at a car dealer office. She was trashy and scammed stores like that more than once.
Despite the fact that over a third of the world’s population shops online, the reality is that we should probably be doing it much, much less. In fact, according to TIME, these “harmless” little orders might be negatively impacting your mental health. Dr. Elias Aboujaoude, a clinical professor of psychiatry at Stanford Medicine, says that both shopping and spending time on the internet are addictive. So doing both at the same time can be a dangerous combination.

Like, kids will be living in a world where almost EVERYTHING is shipped from someplace to another, Then, one day, someone will buy a huge warehouse and sell space in it for vendors, folks selling things via the net will think "Maybe I can cut out the middle man by not shipping my goods and save some money, selling directly to the consumer". Some kid will be posting online about this rad thing they just discovered where you don't have to ship things, you just get in your hovercar and go buy it from them, then bring it home.

We (meaning all of us) are drowning in plastic junk, we don’t need more of it for just a few moments of amusement. That is such a self-regarding and myopic view.

If you’re personally struggling with the urge to shop, shop, shop, TIME has a few tips for cutting back. First, forget the idea that you need to be the best, most perfect version of yourself. You don’t need everything. If you have everything you need, that should be good enough! Then go through and remove your credit card information from your computer and any websites where it’s saved.
And force yourself to have a waiting period before buying anything online. Give it some time and really consider if you actually need that item. Better yet, assign yourself a no-buy month, like Courtney suggested. This can be like a little detox from shopping, and it will help you realize just how often you have the impulse to buy something new.

If you buy from Shein, Wish, AliExpress, Temu etc., you kinda get what you pay for. Instead of patting yourself on the back for getting a steal, you’ll get robbed blind. They utterly rely on people’s inability to read thoroughly, their willingness to assume & their lack of motivation to follow up incessantly, along with weak consumer protection agencies and a overwhelmed & bureaucratic legal system that eliminates this as recourse. Settling the handful of fines or lawsuits they actually get is cents compared to what they can scam 99.9% of their customers out of.

The Flowers My Mil Ordered For Me vs. What We Got
Mason Kronol 1 year ago
My husband tried to surprise me for my birthday by ordering from 1-800-Flowers one time. He learned the hard way after 2 days of phone calls. They didn’t not arrive to my work so they did arrive to our home on a Saturday and looked nothing like what he ordered. They tried to offer him a future credit. He now picks up flowers at the grocery store or a plant. I prefer the plants.

I Ordered A Custom Plush From A Store And It Turned Out Like This…
HarriMissesScotland 1 year ago
Rescued a pregnant chinny and took her with us when we went away for a week. Had a blizzard and had to put everything on a sled to hike almost a mile to get to the car. So, these babies became Tim-Bits (Tim Horton donut holes) for the walk-out. I put them inside my jacket. Mom was in her cage with blankets inside and out. 207185_568...7c6808.jpg

What I Ordered vs. What I Got
Ordered this mask almost a month ago hoping to get a good deal. Believe people when they say if it’s to good it’s probably not true. Where do I even begin with this monstrosity. The material looks nothing like advertised. It’s not stretchy whatsoever it feels like it came from the dollar store. The hair is very clearly fake there’s stains on the back half of the mask there’s NO mouth hole and it’s three sizes to big for any normal persons head. Not to mention it smells like battery acid. They removed the ability to review the products shortly after people started receiving them for obvious reasons. And I will 1000% be using the 30 day return policy. I just can’t see why anyone would think this looks even remotely similar. Maybe if I was blind and had never seen a human I might fall for this mask but I refuse to let this thing rot in the closet it can go right back where it came from. A month wasted and I still have to ship it back. Safe to say I’ll never be ordering from this group again.

@ G A, I understand what you meant, but in something that's mass produced, often the "natural" wood pieces are cut using a pattern. The rings in the wood would vary, but not the shape. Unless this was a OOAK or small batch item like on Etsy, the product itself should be pretty uniform. This is just...idk what this is.

Our old UPS guy was amazing! He had those Clark Kent/Christopher Reeves era good looks and was so nice. This was before Amazon was so big. We were planning our wedding, ordering a lot of things online, and I had a harmless crush on him. I ordered my husband a new putter and the box was damaged. He knocked on the door to show me and thought the club got bent so wanted me to open and inspect it. It was an offset club so it was supposed to be like that. As a non golfer he looked embarrassed but I was so happy he took the time to look into it. Unfortunately he apparently passed away a couple years ago only in his 50s. I wondered what happened to him and happened to see the obit. I appreciate my UPS and FedEx drivers! Especially now that I’ve had multiple surgeries and rely on online shopping.

There is no way someone at UPS had the time or the secrecy to exchange a unit for a rock. First, someone would have to get past security to bring in a rock. There are just too many people and workers are too busy to exchange a PS5 for a rock. Just couldn't happen.

If it is for a funeral and not a vase in somebodys home, tell them you don't mind if the flowers are in full bloom.
