30 Times Online Shopping Went So Wrong, It Was Actually Funny

Online shopping is a magical world where you can buy almost anything with just a few clicks. But sometimes, what you order is not what you get. From clothes that only fit dolls to furniture that defies logic, the internet is full of shopping fails that prove why reading reviews is essential.

#23 Ordered A Microwave, Got A Gaming Chair, Customer Service Say They’ll “Consider Fixing The Problem” But Might Not

After weeks of calling customer service to actually get what I’ve already paid for, I finally got a knock on my door. Delivery!!! Finally!!! New microwave!!! Weeeeee. Not. I signed, got the parcel inside, and discovered the microwave was now a gaming chair, a low quality one too. So I called customer service. After keeping me on hold for an eternity, they said they’ll let me know in a week (or two) if they’ll pick it back up and deliver the item I actually bought…. IF!!!
