Woman buys dress online for CNY, receives shower curtain instead
AsiaOne ^ | JANUARY 27, 2021 | Rainer Cheung

Pre-Chinese New Year festivities usually involve buying new clothes to parade around in, but one woman isn't so sure about her festive OOTD this year.

She bought a dress online but received a shower curtain in the mail.

Read the condensed version of this story, and other top stories with NewsLite. The woman, who only wished to be known as Leong, told AsiaOne she purchased the dress from a store on Shopee. A quick scroll through the store's listings shows only clothing for sale, which made Leong suspect that the distribution centre might have mixed up the packages.

"[The parcel] looked about the right size, about A4 size, but I knew that something was not right because I could feel the plastic rings through the packaging," she recounted, sarcastically calling the shower curtain a "waterproof dress material with free plastic jewellery".

Despite repeatedly contacting the seller, she has yet to receive a reply.

Instead, her request for a full refund was countered by the seller, who offered a paltry compensation of $1. In the screenshots supplied by Leong, the system would have automatically accepted the seller's counteroffer had she not responded in time.

Is it embarrassing if a woman goes to a party and she's wearing the same shower curtain as the hostess...'s bathroom?

Pre-Chinese New Year shopping?

I dare the media to replay Pelousy’s invitation to gather Chinese New Year shoppers while the Wuhan Flu was ramping up...

I don’t know, Michelle Obama can be quite fetching when wearing a shower curtain.

Yeah, but the girl in the picture looks exactly like the cute girl from Taiwan that I dated years ago. She was a little weird, and wore big hats, so I can totally picture her in that green...whatever that is. Lord, I miss her.

Lewinsky should have worn one as Clinton’s intern. He wouldn’t have been impeached.
