Prepare to be disappointed...by other people's online purchases. Whether they didn't read the fine print or straight-up got scammed, these people learned a lesson so that you don't have to.
I wouldn't call them heroes. But actually, I might.

This is so sad. Rather than getting individual stickers, this user's sister got one single tiny piece of what I'm just assuming is flimsy paper. That is so not cool. (Get it? Chandler? Anyone? Okay.)
At first glance, it looks kind of close! And then you really start to see it: the crooked top of the star, the uneven holes, the completely different texture of the metal... It's a mess, y'all.
User VitaViolet ordered this silicone mask online. It wasn't even cheap, but it was a deal that (in retrospect) was too good to be true. Well, this will be great for a parody costume, right?
This is such a tragedy. That first costume is a feat of engineering and artistry. The second one wouldn't look out of place in Party City (sorry, Party City fanatics — you know I'm right).
"Flowers I ordered for my Mum v what was delivered." Oh hell no. I would be on the phone with the florist ASAP and asking for my money back. The disrespect to moms on display here...
My favorite part is how they tried to pass off that cheap, wrinkled fabric as the real thing. This is so funny, yet so sad. Or, as someone in the comments said, "Did they give you an Elsa kid's costume?"
Let it go, y'all.
This is just so sad. That sweet fox on the left is a distant cousin of the one on the left. Or grandson, judging by that confusing af beard. Like, why does it have a beard? It's a fox!
"My friend bought this costume online and I’ve been laughing all day," llewellyns said.
First of all, that is the correct reaction. Second of all, Deadpool himself would absolutely love this, and we all know it.
This is just so unbelievably sad. The lack of structure. The glued on jewels. The cheap-looking gold. Thanos himself would snap this Infinity Gauntlet out of existence.
Disney, do your thing.
Remember: if the price of a fitness tracker looks too good to be true, it probably is. Or, as with poor CptBlack007, you're actually buying a fitness tracker accessory. Oof.
"I know he's a big cat, that's why I ordered the Large size," HatsAndTopcoats said.
Listen...this one might be on the cat, let's be real. That looks pretty close to the advertised product. That poor, chunky boy.
According to Reddit user chicaburrita: "Said it came with ten large stones."
I mean...depends on your definition of "large," doesn't it? Maybe these are massage stones for, like, cats. Yeah, that's it. Cats.
What happened here? How do you go from what looks like crystal and resin to...whatever that mess is?
Apparently, it was a stolen design. But good news! The poster and commenters found the original artist! I'm so glad this had a happy ending.
So, here's my theory. Whoever sold the knockoff shirt bought the original shirt, photocopied it, and then printed that photocopy out.
Or, as a commenter put it: "deep fried shirt."
That is also an acceptable theory.
But guys. I genuinely snorted when I scrolled and saw the bottom picture. Look how frickin' tiny it is!
User Prime12345678 said: "GF bought this online. We were expecting something we could both stand on at the same time."
Poor Espeon. That first stuffed animal looks so cute and well-designed. The bottom one looks like a botched clone.
Say it with me now: Espeon! Deserved! Better! Or, as a commenter said: "Espeon more like DEPRESEON."
Accurate.
You order a Halloween mask, you get a paper bag lookin' thing. Are you not entertained?
In all seriousness, whoever sold that knockoff should have their butt kicked for not even trying.
The tragicness of this cannot be overstated.
On the left: cute, chic jeans with artfully placed rips.
On the right: my jeans from junior high that I cut holes in with scissors while sitting at my desk.
I have no idea how this happened, or why. What's the point of making a ring that small in the first place? Is it meant for a baby? Or a doll? The world may never know.
See, this is why you don't buy things on eBay that you can buy on the brand's official website. Otherwise, you're going to end up with novelty Yeezy slippers and be down $750.
What they ordered: a cute, crocheted cockatiel.
What they got: a bird that actually lowkey looks like Donald Trump. Am I wrong? You cannot tell me that I'm wrong. Thanks.
How on Earth do you send that bouquet out and feel good about the product you're sending? That's such a bummer. My condolences to whomever wound up getting those flowers.
What they expected was a book that is large, easy to hold, and kid-friendly. What they got was...honestly, what looks like a paper printout of the book. That's brutal.
Sure, you could have a patch that recreates Fox Mulder's iconic poster from The X-Files. Or, you could have a patch that speaks to your very soul. I know which one I'd pick.
I mean, some of the same elements are there. The zippered pockets, the...okay, so those are the only similarities. But, all in all, it's still a nice sweater!
It took me a minute. Wow, what a masterpiece. They got so close to getting it right, but stumbled right on that last hurdle. Typos will be our downfall, guys.
Honestly, it's probably good that the shirt didn't come with the design on it. "Dietary" is spelled completely incorrectly. Oops?
Anyway, I wouldn't be mad at having a cute new tank top without pizza on it.
"Ordered myself some hair dye from Amazon. First time I've gotten an invisible product from them," want_chocolate wrote on Reddit.
Maybe it will turn your hair invisible? You won't know until you try.
What happened here? What went wrong? Why is his face all squished in?
It's sad because this almost got close to being the real thing. But the smashed-in face really tanked it.
From "You can't hang with us" to "you can't sit withe." Sure, that's the same thing!
Hopefully, they opened up a request with eBay... But honestly, this is so funny that I would probably keep it.
