Real life comedy

This is probably my most funny experience of online shopping. In search of a 35 mm Over The Ear Headphone Cushion, I landed at one product in Flipkart. Now if you ask me why its so scare, then I can tell its because Sony stopped producing the over the ear headphone that I have. But I still love it - yes, the Sony MDR-Q22 that I still have works fine. It's just that it lost its beauty because the cockroach ate the cushion. There were some spare caps which I put and all it needs is the cushion.

I remember buying three of them and gifting couple of them to my relatives - yes I did love this one so much that I wanted people around me also use that. In search of a similar headphone, I could not find anything other than Panasonic RP-HZ47 available in India. So I went and ordered one and it came after two months. I was curious to get it and since it did not come as promised I reached to Amazon and they advised to ask for a refund or contact the seller. When I contacted the seller he told me that, its coming from Japan and was stuck in customs 😕, Really !! Finally it came, not bad given that there are no other choice, but it did not meet my expectation.

I used this for some time but still the MDR-Q22 was coming in my dreams. So I thought to try one more time to give a retrofit to my Sony MDR-Q22 and got some cushions from local market, but they were like XXL shirt put on a thin guy. They did not cost a lot but the petrol cost was not less. So I thought, I would do some research and order the exact size from online. Interestingly I learned how to measure the size , and it appears Crysendo is the leading brand providing cushions in all olnine platforms ( Ya, olnine, someone told me that😀) and Crysendo does show you some pictures on how to measure the size. I never tried to measure anything like this.

Grabbing the small scale and protractor from the kids, I figured out its 35 mm that will make the MDR-Q22 handsome. But alas, searching olnine at several places for few hours, I found there was only one seller having only the last piece for me in Flipkart.And look at the price ₹799 and 72% off on it makes it ₹220 - it definitely is not a fair price for just 2 pieces, but given that only the last was available, I did not want to loose that last piece and ordered it. After that the item became Sold Out.

And see what they delivered.

Looking at it I could definitely make that I have been shipped a wrong product, but then I was curious to think, what kind of product is this. Moved it left and right and I think, its some kind of tap ? But look at the size - did they make it to pass Tritium that costs around $30,000 per gram ? But then why two taps !! After thinking about it for some time, I am have decided to place my refund but I will hold on for a day, if someone can tell me this actually is a precious gem that they shipped by mistake !!

Who knows my investment is lucky !! By the way I am going to share this post in Flipkart in the comment justifying the refund:)

For me I prefer Bose headphones collection, it's clear with no noise, it's suitable 👍 do you have experience of buying from Viva; it has more types with good prices

I have got a allenware that came as an offer with my laptop, will post about it. I really don't like big ones, and instead prefer the light ones like the ones I showed here.

Hello dear friend @sanjeevm good afternoon
You could not have had better luck, not only have you had to wait for several months, you have also received the wrong product.

A few months ago I made two online purchases, a fimadora and half a world of fishing, after several months of not arriving I made the claim, they answered me that the claim date had expired, in short I lost money and valuable waiting time; be disappointed shopping services on the web.

I think it is a fluid mixing faucet.

enjoy the weekend

That's disappointing, I am slowly feeling like online is now more fraudulent.

I still have my 160 GB Ipod Classic. Some products are too good to let go of.

Try turning these into headphones, 2 in 1. Thank you for posting in our COMmunity!

Wow no. Any way you got good tiny alien. It is also surprised me after going through your post. May be they delivered you wrong one, what exactly you want i your end.. I hope you already initiated the return. What is the. cost of this product. You can check the price tag.Is it matching with your paid bill or not.

Too funny! And isn't it interesting how we (myself included) order online for convenience, but sometimes finding the right item (sorting through reviews, comparing prices, returning products when we get the wrong thing as was the case with you) turns into a full time job!
