My Online Shopping Experience: A Lesson Learned
Buying things online can be very stress free and seem of great advantage until you finally get what you did expect in the first place. I have had so many experiences in this most especially when it comes to buying clothings. I think the least worst experiences I have ever had regarding buying things online is when I buy gadgets. I believe there are lower risk because you get to see reviews of the item before you eventually decide on getting it.
Recently, I got an item online and not a random online shop but from a vendor I knew online from my school. She sells clothings and shoes and being a lover of shoes. I saw a shoe that caught my eye, and I thought, Yes! I should get it. I really like the way the shoe looked on picture, it was so attractive and I fantacied how dope it would look on me.
This is the shoe I saw... It got my eye because it was red and black... I like Black colour and I love the colour RED.
I chatted her to know the price of the shoe and it was a little bit expensive. She called it for #16,500 and I said okay. I would pay the money in splits, I would be sending her the money per week until it is complete. I didn't have much funds on me and I wanted to get the shoe without affecting me financially.
It took a month for me to finish paying up for the shoe as I skipped some weeks. I finally went to get the shoe and it was not looking as nice as it was in the picture although it was nice to some extent.
When I saw it, the shoe looked smaller than the normal shoe I wear, then I asked her the size and she told me 42. I checked the shoe, and truly it was 42 when I wore it, it felt a little tight and I thought it was manageable. I didn't walk with it, I only put my leg in it.
After I got home, the next day, I decided to wear the shoe to school to see how it feels. Below is a picture I took after my exam papers that day.
At first, I felt the tightness in my leg and though it is endurable but after a long walk around, I made up my mind that there is no way I could use the Shoe. It felt tight the longer I wore and luckily for Pearl, she is a size 39 and she told me she loves the shoe.
I gave it all to her instead since the shoe was less tight for her. I may buy the same shoe again but this time maybe from another vendor. My reason is that pearl now has this shoe, it would be great if I have the same type and we both go out on a date together with the same shoe. Romantic isn't it? Let's see how it goes.

Sometimes the shoe size can be really funny. I got on shoe too and it looked like the shoe was smaller but it was actually the same size.
Yes ooo. Get another one. Maybe choose size 43 this time
Funny thing is, I have bought size 43 from the same vendor and it was way too big. I gave the shoe out..
Hahaha 😂😂😂🤣
Hehehe, is this last part of the post for me? Hahaha 😂😂 I
@creativepearl come and see oo 😂🤣
This love eeehh, so giggling lol
Super romantic my boss
And as for the size, it usually look big through images but receiving some items, it becomes otherwise. It happened to me with a handbag. Glad pearl could use it
Lol😂...Love is sweet ohh, momma😌. Buying things online has its advantages and disadvantages and also, all these sizes is not all about the number written on them all the time but then, I'm glad its mine now😊.
Smiles 😊.
Enjoy the sneakers
Love is sweet indeed when you are with the right person.
All the best my people ❤️
Thank you ma☺️
The crazy thing is that those who are quilts of this will make you think that everyone selling online are the same and you may not want to patronize the good ones among them anymore
Very sad...
Some shoes always look so attractive online, but not when you see them. This is why I don't fancy these online marketing of a thing.
Anyways, it's good that her legs can fit into those shoes...
It's unfortunate that the shoe didn't fit you well, but it's wonderful that you found a happy solution by giving it to your friend Pearl, who could use and enjoy it. Sharing the same shoe for a date does sound like a romantic and fun idea! It's always nice to have a special connection with a friend through such small gestures.
yeah thanks brother... na to find money buy another shoe like this oh
