40+ Online Shopping Fails From People Who Should’ve Read The Reviews

What’s the most painful online shopping mistake you’ve ever made?

When I was 17, I wanted to buy my boyfriend a North Face jacket for Christmas that I definitely couldn’t afford. I found one on a really sketchy site for only $20. It arrived two days before Christmas and instead of the luxurious jacket I expected, a pink, child-sized breast cancer awareness North Face knock-off arrived. I think I ended up scrambling to make him a scrapbook or something instead. It was a real nightmare and it looked like sh*t. Sorry man.

Some people never learned as a teenager with their own traumatic Christmas Eve craft project and keep buying knockoffs from cheap websites. At least everyone else gets to benefit from laughing at it. 

Hopefully, these people learned to not just read the good reviews next time.
