Ordering clothes online from retailers like Temu and Shein and others can often feel like a gamble. You might think you're getting a trendy item, only to end up with something completely different. While many people are lucky enough to receive what they exactly ordered, others can find themselves with a surprise, whether it's an item that looks nothing like the pictures or a package that is small, almost like receiving a toy or a full-sized product.

A young lady, TikTok user @lisa.m.beth, ordered pants from Temu, and what she received left her rolling in laughter, with online users joining in after viewing the clip on the video streaming platform.
