Shopping online is always fun and exciting. The second you order something, you start counting the hours and the days until it reaches your home.
They always feel like gifts because someone else delivers them to you and you can genuinely be surprised after opening the box, either pleasantly or unpleasantly. Sometimes the thing you ordered ends up looking much worse in real life, and that's the worst kind of disappointment there is.
Online shopping is always a gamble; you think you will like something just because it looks good in a picture, but seeing what it actually looks like in real life immediately changes your mind. Thankfully, all reputable websites offer the option to return a product if you don't like it; otherwise, people will constantly get stuck with tons of useless items.
The users in the pictures below ordered some items online and ended up receiving something completely different. Most of them received either shrunk versions of their order or the complete opposite.
Either way, they did not get what they were expecting, and the results are truly hilarious. Always check the size of a product before going through with the purchase, it's one of the most important rules of online shopping.

@harps_joeBuying things online can change your life if you do it right. Ordering from a website that doesn't have a good reputation is always a no-no unless you want to receive something entirely different.
You probably won't even have the option to ask for a refund, so why even bother? If you enjoyed this list, make sure to check out similar content on our platform.
