How To Buy A Photo Of An Xbox One For £ 450

Питер и его покупка за 450 фунтов стерлингов

The teenager Peter Clutorty from the British city of Nottingham has long set aside money for the new Xbox One console. As soon as the required amount of 450 pounds sterling was accumulated, he immediately rushed to Ebay and placed an order for a kit consisting of a console and a brand new game FIFA 14. A few days later he received his order, but what was his surprise when it turned out that they didn’t send him a game console, but just her photo.


When buying from individuals on the Internet you should always be extremely careful and cautious. If the British teenager more often read what they write in the description of the goods they purchase, he would probably notice that the seller, for fun or seriously, put up for sale a regular Xbox One photo printed on a printer. But, as they say, hurry up - you will play video games on an A4 paper sheet for £ 450 (which is approximately $ 750 or 24,000 rubles). Sometimes human stupidity knows no boundaries.

“When I told my brother about the misfortune that occurred, he laughed at me to tears. I still hurt that he reacted to it in this way. All my friends still laugh at me. And even my mother told me straightforwardly that I was stupid, ”shared the frustrated Peter with journalists.

Peter Clutorty himself, apparently, is not really burdened with special intelligence. Now the guy is only 19 years old, and his son is already four years old. It is unlikely that the birth of a child at the age of 15 characterizes a teenager as especially prudent and strategically thinking. The console, according to Peter himself, he wanted to give his son for Christmas so that they could play his father’s favorite games with him.

Of course, Peter, who suffered from his own stupidity, filed an application for a refund, and the PayPal consumer protection program reimbursed him the full amount to the last penny. Due to its history, the hapless Briton quickly became a star on the Internet, which immediately decided to use particularly enterprising personalities for promotional purposes. Just the other day, CeX, which sells household appliances, absolutely free of charge handed a brand new Xbox One to a teenager, thus making herself a decent advertisement in the local press.

The moral of the story is this: carefully read the descriptions of the products you plan to purchase on the Internet, otherwise you risk, just like in that old joke, to get a magnifying glass as a "means for increasing the genital organ."
