What we do when an order goes wrong, told through 50 abandoned parcels, one set of false teeth and a customer called Karen.<\/em><\/p>\n

Things go wrong sometimes. It’s what you do next that counts. This is the story of what we did next, featuring a lot of 50 abandoned envelopes, a TikTok review, two full refunds and one very determined reseller.<\/p>\n

All 50 abandoned parcels from the returned lot opened and laid out on our warehouse table
The whole lot, opened and laid out once it came back to us in Poole.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The abandoned parcels unboxing<\/h2>\n

Back in March, a customer filmed herself opening one of our job lots of 50 abandoned envelopes<\/a>. These are genuine undelivered parcels, still sealed and sent exactly as we get them from a UK fulfilment centre. Nobody, us included, knows what’s inside.<\/p>\n

The first thing out was a set of false teeth. Then came personalised Christmas decorations with other people’s names on, a penguin keyring, a cat keyring, pumpkin seed oil, vitamins, stickers, an Italian charm bracelet and a keyring that had something to do with protein. After a dozen or so items, she’d had enough.<\/p>\n

Honestly? Fair enough. We’d have wobbled at the teeth.<\/p>\n
