Because I lack common sense in general, I decided to shop at some Chinese site with free shipping. Of course they were cheap. Then it struck me, after I had paid for the order, to check on the legitimacy of the site, and read reviews. After that I was like, "huh, I'm no better than the stupid people I complain about". Maybe I should learn to check where I'm spending my money before dishing it out.
Not that I'll lament the loss of 15 bucks for long. It's about $5 less than my lunch money. And now that I am no longer expecting to receive anything after reading reviews (apparently these people never ship your orders), I guess it'll be a pleasant surprise if what I ordered turns up in 6 months. I guess it's kinda sad in a way, that though I am Chinese myself, I inherently distrust Chinese sites. In my defense, China is notorious for its fraudulent poor quality products, as well as scams in general.
Which is kind of ironic, since I swear most of what I use is made in China.
Why don't I contact costumer service and ask for a refund? Well, because I only ordered today, and funny as it sounds, I still want what I ordered. I know there are a million bad reviews on the internet, but I still feel as if I have no right to complain about them if I have never experienced it myself. So I'm resigned to waiting patiently. Hopefully it'll get here before Christmas.
