It looked fantastic online, once you got it and started making use of it, you then realise what a mistake you've made!

What are your most regretted online purchases?

1. Why did you buy it?
2. Where did you buy it from?
3. Why did/do you regret buying it?
4. Did you return it or are you still using it?

1. Smartwatch
- Wanted to try something new (still looking for a new wristwatch -- analog instead this time).
- Takealot
- It was slow, sluggish and just plain bad. Provided detail about the product within its packaging is/was poor!
- I most certainly did return it after but a day or 2 of use.

2. Highback Mesh Typist Chair
- Needed to replace the current typist chair I was using, as its "gas" ran out and no longer raised up. Dubbed it: "Low Rider".
- Takealot
- "Lumber support" is a hard plastic that's position hurts your back more than it actually SUPPORTS it. Heck, it only "supports" it if you're sitting exactly upright. The wheel base has been improperly welded; there's no equilibrium or balance. It's either: Raised high, dropped low or leaning left or right.
- I have not. Far too much effort. I'm instead going to save up to buy a replacement.
 
Aspen
1. Was the only time I listened to the commentators on TV saying how great a share it is
2. EasyEquities
3. Its a dog at the moment and now they have an investigating over pricing in Italy
4. I still have it

Satrix Divi
1. Bought it for the divis
2. Standard Bank Online Trading
3. Terrible methodology for an ETF
4. Yeah, still have it. Moved it over to EasyEquities
