Whether it’s a henna artist who completely botched the portrait of your cherished pet or a sandwich shop that swapped your cookie for a photo of one (what?), these customers know all too well the feeling when online orders go hilariously wrong. Expectations? Shattered. Reactions? Pure comedy gold.
1. “I ordered some tights for Halloween online. I didn’t check the size and it turns out they were a bit too small...”
2. “Henna artist said she was great at pet portraits...”
3. “Box lunch from a sandwich shop comes with a picture of a cookie rather than an actual cookie.”
4. “Ordered a cake for my father’s birthday. The speedometer on the cake was also supposed to be pointing to his age (54).”
5. “There’s no other reason for the box to be this size other than to mislead.”
6. “Bought this as a present for a big fan of The Shining...”
7. “Italian espresso packed under pressure”
8. “Ordered a canvas print of me and my kids. At least one of us made it fully into the picture, I guess.”

11. “I think the choking hazard warning is referencing what this thing will do to you.”

17. “Ordered a new pair that came in the wrong size. Should I return them? Will they stretch over time?”
18. “These shorts my friend ordered... Just a little bit different from the advertisement!”
When it comes to advertising, Photoshop is a key tool in crafting images that sell a product. Fortunately, in many cases, there’s no need to deceive or mislead customers. That’s because the images used are a true reflection of what the product is all about.
