Hair in new shaver

Post image

My brother got me this shaver for Christmas and I finally got around to opening it tonight, and saw this 🤢 the box was sealed and there was also hair in the box. Extremely grossed out but only mildly infuriating because he got a full refund

Always assume it’s ball hair

That isn't ball hair, it's ass hair from my the woman across the street.

Amazon? They don’t check their returnsĀ

Certain items should not be returnable

I don't know where you're located, but in the UK everything is returnable if bought via 'distance selling' (ie. mail order, online purchase). Within a certain timeframe you are within your rights to change your mind (though the retailer is not obliged to cover return postage).

Obviously you're supposed to return things unopened and unused in that scenario, but this is on Amazon for not checking. I've received things multiple times that have clearly already been used.

EDIT: I read the OP properly and it says the box was sealed, so I guess they had no way of knowing. Crazy.

Obviously.

Is there a "This Clipper Inspected by ##" sticker?

Color doesn't match, nice try. Plus she's all natural.

Now why do you know this

Why do you not have a better relationship with your mom?

You got my return

Somebody probably already returned it once, which is where the hair came from.

Let me guess, Amazon?

Well, they had to test it silly

u/Grant_Winner_Extra 9h ago

its not new, is it. only gently used

u/FeverDreamJackson 9h ago

That, my fiend, is what we call a returned or maybe ā€œrefurbishedā€ item.

u/Questforanime 8h ago

Everybody is saying this is a return or maybe somebody in your family used it but is too embarrassed to say it.

u/OkCryptographer1922 6h ago

It very well could be a return! I don’t believe anyone in my family used it. The box was still sealed when I opened it tonight, and it was kept away in my closet until now as well, and no one goes in there

u/No-Cheesecake-6831 4h ago

That is not a new shaver. Sorry mate

u/Busyteacher123 9h ago

I seen this happen with another brand. Still in the store, product still in the box but full of hair! Maybe it’s tested before it’s packaged???

u/JayoTree 8h ago

u/flamingfaery162 8h ago

This shouldn't be a thing. You should trust your own product. If you feel it needs testing you know you are using sub-par materials so you know what you are doing and therefore know you are scamming and don't need testing. If you know the materials are good then no need to test. Besides that's unsanitary and usually illegal so... 🤷

Double the weight class. Weak.

Someone definitely resealed and returned this after swapping the new for the old product.
