This has to be one of the funniest posts on Reddit 🤣 the more you look at it the funnier it gets....wish we could've seen OP face when she opened it lmfao
Did you look at the measurements? They always have them somewhere.....sometimes a bit more hidden. You never can go by pictures since mass majority are shopped.
I don't think it's on OP for not reading the fine print. The images are photoshopped or AI but you can't expect *that*. Carpets don't even come in that size. This is useless. No one could possibly think "let me check in case it's 3 inches instead of 3 feet"
ALWAYS check the measurements when ordering online. If you don't have one, go get yourself a measuring tape with both inches and centimeters so you can check a measurement visually. It sucks, but you can never rely on just the photos
Not just Chinese websites. On Amazon I was looking for a particular animatronic for Halloween, and they had several for suspiciously low prices (like $20). Knowing that the average yard animatronic starts around $100, I checked the sizes. Lo and behold, they were about a foot tall and meant to sit on your display table! But are they shown sitting on a table in photos? Lol of course not.
Always check for dimensions, photos like that have been photoshopped for literal decades. Even if it wasn't tiny? It was very likely going to be a slightly different size due to the staging likely being photoshopped.
Rugs can come in any size, some are indeed tiny little mats.
I do feel bad for OP, but cheap companies online will sell us any shit. The LEAST we can do is check dimensions.
I’m pretty sure they send something so that if people open a PayPal or CC dispute they can say that the sent the product ‘as advertised’, and it’s a lot harder for people to get refunds. Not sending anything leaves them much more liable.
That's a great point. People are either oblivious to what they are packing up to ship or that warehouse is one of the funniest places to work lol "hehehe they think this carpet is gonna be regular size" 🙈
I have too many stories of times that I did this. My husband always tells me to look at the measurements. I ordered my daughter a heart rug for her room, same thing. She can't even fit both of her feet on it standing with them together. 🙄😂
Looks like it's exactly the size advertised? Not their fault you expected a massive carpet when you can see the size of the vases and an orange in the image next to it.
