What are some ebay wedding dress horror stories?

I know a story where a bride ordered a lace - detailed wedding dress from ebay. The lace was supposed to be a high - quality, intricate design. However, when the dress arrived, the lace was cheap - looking and full of holes. The seller didn't want to take it back or offer a refund. So the bride was stuck with a dress she couldn't wear and had lost a lot of money on it. She had to quickly find another dress which was a huge stress during her wedding preparations.

Well, I heard of a situation where a bride's wedding dress caught fire during the photo shoot because it was too close to a candle. Thankfully, she was not seriously hurt but the dress was ruined. Also, there was a case where the wedding dress store went out of business right before the bride could pick up her dress, and she had already paid in full.

One horror story is when the bride - to - be found a perfect dress in a store. But when it arrived for the final fitting, it was the wrong color. The store tried to blame it on the lighting in the showroom, but it was clearly a different shade than what she ordered.

Wrong sizing is very common. Like in the story I just told, where the store measured wrongly. Another is the dress not being as it was shown or described, like the wrong color.

Often, problems with the quality of the fabric are a big part of these horror stories. For example, the fabric might be itchy, as I mentioned before, or it might be flimsy and not look as elegant as it should. Also, miscommunication between the bride and the dressmaker or the store is common. The bride might have wanted one style but received something completely different.

One possible plot could be that the wedding dress was made by a deranged seamstress who put a curse on it. So, whenever a bride wears it, she starts to hallucinate and see the seamstress's angry face, driving her mad.

Another story could be about a bride who designed her own wedding dress. She spent months choosing the fabric, the style, and the details. It was a very personal and creative process, and when she finally walked down the aisle in that dress, it was a unique expression of herself. This shows how a wedding dress can be a form of self - expression for the bride.

One horror story is when a seller shipped a very fragile item carefully but the buyer claimed it was broken on arrival. The seller had no proof of proper packing as the post office didn't document it well. So the seller had to refund the buyer even though it might not have been their fault.

There was a case where a buyer paid via Paypal on Ebay for an item. After receiving it, the buyer filed a false claim of 'not as described'. Paypal immediately refunded the buyer without giving the seller a chance to respond. The seller lost both the item and the money. It was really unfair as the item was exactly as described in the listing.

Well, I heard of a case where a person bought a classic car on ebay motors. They paid a good amount of money for it. When the car was delivered, it was full of rust underneath, which was not at all visible in the pictures. The interior was also in a much worse state than described. It had a strong musty smell and the seats were torn. The buyer had a really hard time trying to get any kind of refund or compensation from the seller.
