The buyer seems to have overlooked the importance of verifying the product's measurements before entering their credit card information. According to the poster, this oversight is exactly what led to their disappointment.

While searching for the perfect gift, a girl and her friends decided to purchase a $150 rug for a friend's birthday. However, in their excitement, they "didn't check" the size before finalizing the order. To their surprise, when the rug arrived, they found it to be comically small.
