Making purchases feels like eating one of those Beanboozled jellies.
Every time you go out to buy something new, there is always that doubt of being rick-rolled. Something that has such an amazing face value is quick to attract you towards it but is also quick to alert you there might be something very unrealistic to what’s shown, in there. Especially with e-commerce business when you make an online purchase based on how beautiful the product looks in real-life and end up with something either completely different or the same but with a very low quality. Causes some serious trust issues. I think thrice before making online purchases now. But this phenomenon of fraud isn’t just online, it happens everywhere. You can think of it to be extremely funny unless it happens to you.
Given how we all have been frauded in such a way at least once in our lives, we are officially and legally allowed to laugh at other people’s misery concerning the same fraud. And that is what we are here for.
Here are 20 examples of customers being fully rick-rolled by manufacturers on their first purchases. Scroll down below to enjoy!

I swear the number of things that we used to blindly trust in is slowly decreasing as we are growing up. My man ordered shoes and got the pair for the same foot. Like thanks, my guy. I will definitely share it with my little brother. Trust issues, this is where they come from. They create online shopping for our comfort and then send this shit to have us go back to shop physically. So much for that innovation.
Let’s see some more blunders!

I pay my condolences to all these guys and to everyone who has been rick-rolled by manufacturers. I am with you in this.
