Share your bad online shopping stories.
I ordered a phone case. The description said it was a high - quality, durable case with good shock absorption. But the case I received was flimsy. It didn't fit my phone properly. The cut - outs for the buttons and ports were misaligned. I dropped my phone just a little bit and the case didn't protect it at all. It was a waste of money.
Well, I bought a pair of shoes. The size was clearly marked as my regular size. However, when they got here, they were at least two sizes smaller. It was impossible to even get my feet in them. And the quality was so poor. The material felt like it would fall apart after just a few wears. I had to go through a lot of hassle to return them.

My online shopping story is about a pair of shoes. I had been looking for a particular style for a long time. I found them on an e - commerce platform. I read the reviews which were mostly positive.

I once got a really great deal on a laptop during Black Friday. I had been eyeing it for months, but it was always too expensive. On Black Friday, I saw it was discounted by 40%. I got to the store early and there was already a long line. But it was so worth it when I finally walked out with my new laptop.

I had a horrible experience during holiday shopping at a local store. There was a long line at the checkout, and only two cashiers were working. As I was waiting, the person in front of me had some issues with their payment method. It took forever to resolve, and the cashier was getting frustrated. Meanwhile, my frozen items in my cart were starting to thaw. By the time it was my turn, I was so annoyed. And then, the cashier accidentally overcharged me for one of the items. It was just a mess.

A typical bad online shopping experience is when the size is wrong. Like buying a jacket that is way too big or small. And then there's the issue of counterfeit products. People might order a branded item but get a fake instead. It's really frustrating. For instance, I ordered a branded watch once and what I got was a very poor imitation.
Share some online shopping addiction stories.
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.
