Well, my friend had a crazy experience. She was shopping online late at night and was half - asleep. She added all kinds of random items to her cart, including a huge inflatable unicorn. When she woke up the next day, she had already completed the purchase and was shocked to see what she had bought.
There was this man who was looking for a book on an online store. But instead of clicking on the 'add to cart' button for the book, he clicked on a related item which was a life - sized cardboard cutout of a famous actor. He didn't realize until it was delivered and he was very amused by his own mistake.
Sure. One year, I saw a lady running through the store with a huge cart, grabbing every toy she could see. She was in such a rush that she didn't even check the prices. She just kept saying she had to get all the toys for the kids in the orphanage. It was really heartwarming.
Sure. I ordered a vintage vinyl record. It was shipped from a very far - away country. When it arrived, the packaging was so carefully done. It was like opening a time capsule. Another unique story is that I bought a custom - made guitar pick. The seller was very communicative during the making process, sending me pictures of the progress. It was really cool to be part of the creation of something I was buying.
Well, I bought a pair of shoes. The size was clearly marked as my regular size. But when I got them, they were at least two sizes smaller. I couldn't even get my feet into them. It was such a disappointment and a waste of money. I had to go through the hassle of returning them and waiting for the refund.
Sure. One time I ordered a 'large' shirt online. When it arrived, it was so huge it could fit three of me! It was more like a tent than a shirt. I had a good laugh and ended up giving it to my big - framed friend.
Sure. One story is about a person who saw a designer bag on a very cheap price on an unknown online store. After paying, they never received the item. Another is when someone bought electronics, and the product that arrived was a completely different and much cheaper, broken item.
I once bought a 'big' t - shirt. The description said it was a large size. But when it came, it could barely fit my cat. It was so tiny. I had a good laugh about it. I guess their idea of large was very different from mine.
There was a man who bought something from an online marketplace. Later, he got a call from someone claiming to be from the marketplace's customer service. They asked for his account password to 'fix a problem'. He gave it, and then his identity was stolen. They used his account to buy expensive items and also stole his personal information. This shows that we should be very careful about who we give our information to during online shopping.
Sure. I once ordered a dress online. The picture showed a beautiful, well - made dress. But when it arrived, it was a completely different color, and the fabric was so cheap and flimsy. It looked like it would fall apart after one wear.
Well, I knew a woman who was really into online shopping. She once bought ten pairs of shoes in a single day because there was a big discount. Her house was filled with unopened packages. She often found herself spending hours just browsing through different shopping websites, even when she didn't really need anything. And then there was a young man. He got addicted to buying collectibles online. His room was overcrowded with all those items he bought online.
Once I ordered a 'large' sweater. When it arrived, it was so huge that it could fit three of me! It was more like a tent than a sweater. I took a picture of myself drowning in it and sent it to the seller. They were so amused that they offered me a discount on my next purchase.
