It's hard to get through life without encountering an unfortunate situation in which you get scammed. Be it a product not ending up like you expected, or a service not turning out right, it sucks to deal with.
Instead of suffering through tricks of your own, take a look at some others instead. Maybe seeing these will help you avoid some scams in the future!
Yeah, getting it bound is a premium price, an extra $100 for loose binder rings. What, you wanted it in color? That'll be $300. If you just want the real textbook, it's $1000. The book is very heavy, lifting it is hard, you have to pay for that labor!
With expensive candles, you have to put in the work. That means holding a hairdryer above it and hand-melting the wax, hoping the smell will make the constant noise and the ache in your arm worth it.
At first glance, it's a sad recreation. Then you read the price. That's when this becomes an absolute crime. How many employees looked at this and went, "Yep, this looks good!" One is too many already, but the more who saw it the worse it becomes.
You deserve better, Thor.
Man, now you need to tear up the rest of your grass and put this down so you can have a mushroom lawn instead. That's so much extra work though, it would have been nice if these just spread naturally.
If this is the deluxe upgrade, I shudder to think what the original room looked like. Perhaps a closet? A shoe box? If they were really lucky, they might have been granted the luxury of staying in a kitchen cupboard mounted on the wall.
At least this one has an upside, which is that it makes an excellent sleeping surface for long or overnight flights.
Worth $47? Not at all, but having an upside is better than it just being all terrible all the time!
Hey, 60 years is quite the wait, but after that time you'll be making nothing but profit. You do have to stay there, though. I hope you like that house because you're rooted to it for a while.
It being discontinued is really the old, crusty icing on this terrible, stale cake.
If you're a handy or crafty person, this just became a really difficult, brain-training puzzle! They just forgot to tell you that some assembly is required. All assembly is required, actually.
Is it expensive because it's one of those deconstructed, avant-garde pieces of furniture that rich people are buying nowadays? Probably not, but it's worth asking.
Not only did it break, it broke spectacularly. It shattered. They heard it explode in the box then shook it around for good measure.
They clearly cut your lawn, but a little more than you'd wanted. They cut your lawn negatively, as in they went into the dirt. The grass doesn't go that far down, guys. A little trim would have been just fine.
In the future you can just save yourself the cost by going to any thrift store, buying any mug, and slapping a sticker on it. It's cheaper, customizable, and you don't feel personally cheated by a team you like.
I've never been much of a seafood guy, especially shellfish. I actually don't think I've ever had lobster. I know it's expensive, but I've never been able to gauge how expensive. This is probably too much, right? This isn't $34 worth of lobster?
Well, technically, you got two wraps. When you think about it that way, this is a pretty good deal!
Sure each one is only one bite, but we're trying to be positive here, so don't think about that part.
I thought this was appalling, but then you mentioned they included a pen, and that actually turned this into an incredible deal. Where else are you going to find a bundle with a pen in it for only $90?
Calling that a crouton is a bit of an understatement, but the restaurant calling the whole thing a dessert is a gross overstatement, so it evens out.
Hopefully the dinner portions were huge, maybe this is all they give you because they think it's all you'll have room for.
Isn't a concept something you test out to see if it functions properly? Is this restaurant open to some of their concepts being bad? Because this one definitely is. Lettuce should not be in a cup in any situation.
Merry Christmas! Enjoy looking at this image of Link from Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild! We hope you like your gift. Yes, that's it, just the photo. Game? We have no idea what you're talking about.
That's why the only gift wrappers I trust are the people who do it in booths at the mall that open around Christmas. If I can't see someone hand-wrapping it in front of me with expert precision, I don't want it!
The worst part is that this isn't even fancy — just the price is. But then, getting gouged at an amusement park is almost a rite of passage for summer vacation, isn't it?
Between the photocopied textbook and this almost-unused-yet-crazy-pricey textbook, higher education and academia aren't really looking so hot right now. And, sadly, you hear way too many similar stories, too.
The nice thing about tile floors is how easily they clean up. Unless, of course, you're convinced that they need a good scrubbing but they're not actually dirty, like these tiles.
And no, the exchange rate doesn't make this any more palatable. We really just can't have nice things, can we?
I'm hoping this was attached to a farm of some kind, but it'd be even funnier if it was just some dude's really big backyard. You pay $12 to go stand in it for a bit and then leave.
It's so bizarre because USBs are so easy to just get right. They don't need to be fancified at all. You just keep them, you know, universal, and everybody's happy.
Boy, that "order again" button on Amazon sure is convenient, isn't it? And the real shame of it is that a lot of people would be suckered into this situation with ease, myself included.
And as the poster explained, it should have survived, according to the specs. "Yep, that’s just a branch, I am a big dude and had a hard time manhandling it off there. I would guess the branch weighs around 400 pounds."
Well, it's easy to see where that tuition money doesn't go. You'd expect a bit more, well, everything, if you were shelling out that kind of dough, wouldn't you?
Two hot tips from this person's experience: first, as usual, if a deal seems too good to be true, it probably is. And second, trust your shower. No need to douse yourself in someone else's idea of a good stink.
This looks like a child went a little nuts with the chalk. Was the person with the powerwasher short? Like, really short? Looked like they were five years old? I'm just making sure it wasn't you that slipped up here.
I'm no gardening expert, and my thumbs are anything but green, but even I know that someone had to go out of their way to "prune" that tree like that.
