online shopping is great! The convenience and prices are second-to-none, and there's the added thrill of not knowing exactly what you will get, and when you do get it, you might have already forgotten that you ordered it in the first place - just like getting a present from yourself!

Shopping online may be a great way to save a pretty penny, but it can also turn into a hilarious if not unfortunate experience. Here at Bored Panda, we have compiled a list of funny online shopping fails, such as the famous painting of Great Wave of Kanagawa composed entirely from pugs, a chair so tiny that it can only be meant to be used for ants, a ginormous unicorn float and many other online scams and perfect examples of crappy design. All of these bargains can shortlist you for wish fails, proving that sometimes, the mall is better after all.

Scroll down below to check the hilarious misfortunes and shoddy product designs out for yourself and learn the lesson from these funny online shopping fails!

    They don't sell these as blankets at wish, they clearly say that you're buying yarn. Why people order stuff without reading what they're ordering?

    I saw this ad the other day. I don't know if it was added later, but it now includes the information that it they are just selling the yarn, not the blanket.

    They also offer blankets, but the price goes from 50-100+ dollars...this yarn is for arm-knitting...

    I liked it too, but I read the description, they say what they sell, they also tell how many you must buy to be able to make the blanket

    To be fair, I've seen this listing, and it specifically says it's just the yarn, not the finished blanket.

    My friend claims that Wish is hit or miss if you don't know what you are doing. But..she orders from Wish all the time and everything that she gets is awesome. She said that the trick is..to know what vendors are behind the products you are ordering. She said that she only orders from Wish when she knows the product vendor. So apparently.. that is the trick..to ordering from Wish..and getting a good quality product..KNOW THE VENDOR!!

    Usually when these pop up, it has a little notice that it's yarn only, not a blanket. Not all of them, though.

    I was looking for a blanket like that and a friend pointed me to this listing on ebay and it was as advertised. I was a little bit skeptical, especially because of the price. But you get what you pay for and the blanket ended up being awesome. I absolutely love this blanket. https://www.ebay.com/itm/292370724057?ViewItem=&item=292370724057

    Wtf? They seem to have good customer service though so I'm guessing you could go to a store and they would fix it. I order from the all the time! Only issue I've had was they sent me an extra item one time which I brought back for no refund obviously but they didn't know how to enter it into their system since it was never purchased lol
