View Full Version : Regretful purchases

Any item your purchased, services you hired that cost you quite something only to regret about it afterwards?
Ako may music album akong binili last time, hindi ko na sasabihin kung sinong foreign music artist, akala ko magugustuhan ko yung mga songs, at least the majority, yun pala, yung mga commercially realeased songs lang talaga ang nagandahan ako.
May novel din na akala ko maganda pero turns out to be too harsh and violent for me, that I didn't even bother to finish anymore.
May binili din akong pair of pants that until now hindi ko pa nagagamit, I forgot, it's not additional pair of pants that I need.

Dermawand - sa halip na gumanda, dumami ang spiderveins ko.
Gravity rider - pang exercise na parang pinaghalong bike and stepper.
Parehong sa Home TV shopping ko nabili :(

You mean, an elliptical trainer? I also bought an elliptical trainer on Home TV Shopping. Do they tell you that you can lose weight by going on it 30 minutes for three days a week? That's BS. I used my elliptical trainer for at least one hour everyday and I got results. You have to know how much effort you have to actually put.
What I've regretted buying was a treadmill to replace the elliptical trainer. It's not electronic, and kahit ano pang lagay ng silicone oil, it doesn't get lubricated. I want a new elliptical trainer.

clothes from Kate Torralba- the quality is really bad, seams fraying and almost ripping after even after just two uses. Expensive,too.

a bottega veneta hobo. it doesn't look good when all my stuff are in it na, siguro dahil masyadong malambot 'yong leather. this is my one and only hobo...and am more into structured bags kasi talaga. plus, they put the bag on sale a few months after i got it....kakainis sobra!

oh my lord...my friends had their clothes made by KT too. mejo hindi nice. they only used it once tapos had to return it for some adjustments tapos pagbalik sa kanila eh...wala na.
inshort, once lang nasuot ng "mejo matino."

Sayang, sana sa akin mo na lang binenta. :D I'm looking for one. I just hope I can find a sucker to offload the treadmill to. Nasira kaagad yung timer, tapos hindi na ma-lubricate. Hay.

Parang ako 'yan ah. Last night, I bought a blouse from For Me for 900 pesos. It looked good on me when I was trying it on in the fitting room. But when I tried it on again at home, sheesh, ang pangit pala. Sayang lang.
Another regrettable purchase: MaryKay Dual-Coverage Powder Foundation. Nagka-rashes ako, buwiset. Ang mahal pa naman.

Gym shoes I bought from Adidas. I've used it only once... tapos nalaman ko nalang na FOR INDOOR USE ONLY pala yung shoes paggamit ko. Pang-gym nga talaga, e napostpone naman pagg-gym ko.

Hay marami!
1. My gucci shoes, sakit kaya sa ankle..ang tigas.
2. But ang pinaka regretful purchase ko is my PRADA rubber shoes (sale kasi).....never got to wear it coz its a bit tight. Tsaka the color is off- "black" kasi. I should've bought the more expensive Brown Sneakers. Oh well.
Andyan pa rin naman yun Black Prada Rubber Shoes ko sa storage room...tsktsktsk. SAYANG!

I had hair treatments at Kerastase Institute the other day. Ewan ko ba naman, I was originally opting for the Force Ritual (Vita-Ciment) and Oleo Relax Masque treatment pero sabi nung "specialist" Vita-Ciment is for chemically-treated hair lang daw (mine wasn't). So she recommended Aqua-Oleum and Anti-Dandruff treatment instead.
I have no regrets with Aqua-Oleum because it really left my hair soft and shiny (although not frizz-free) pero I wish I had opted for the Oleo-Relax Masque instead of the anti-dandruff treatment na lang.

I really don't have regretful purchases, pero I do buy a lot of stuff (clothes, footwear, bags) which I don't get to use. Nakalimutan ko na may binili pala akong item, only to find it buried in my closet much later on. By the time I've realized I've bought something pala, hindi ko na ito gusto. So I usually just give them away or sell them.
Ayan ang problema kapag impulse buyer ka/ :)

wag na bumili ng shoes na tiangge :D or if you must, buy the flat ones na lang - but i can't speak for the quality pa rin. :(

Ako yung Swatch skin watch. Pinag ipunan ko pa talaga kasi I really dreamed to have one. Natanggal ko lang yung cover nung battery pero naibalik ko naman as intact like it was pero nung ibalik ko ayaw na gumana. Bumalik ako doon sa pinagbilhan ko pero di nila maayos. Di nila masabi kung ano ang cause ng failure nya basta ang alam nila ay ang may sira ay yung relo mismo. Unfortunately out of warranty nya sya kaya di na nila mapalitan. Nanghinayang lang me talaga. Ayun nakatago na lang sa aparador ko as a piece of crap but it looks brand new kasi bihira ko sya gamitin. Sana Casio G shock na lang ang binili ko kasi I have Casio watch at 9 years na sya sa akin at gumagana pa rin.

I thought these were steals!! I bought a pair of Zanea wedge shoes at the Marikina Shoe Expo in Cubao, nag chip off yung balat that same day.. and another pair of white wedge strappy shoes at SUS 5th ave in Galleria.. straps breaking off the next day... Lesson learned. Invest on good quality shoes.

hmm, i bought this Nike Air Vapor Trainer. Though the design is good, my feet isn't comfy because my previous surgery in my ankle rubs against the heel portion of the shoe. I still bought it :rolleyes: .... and I've used it only twice

pareho tayo.lumipat ako sa Ricky Reyes,nag sabi din ako ng gusto ko pero ayaw sundin ng hairdresser and i went home not satisfied with my hair.BUT when i went to school,on the way pa lang,strangers are either checking me out or palihim na susulyap.i was like "may dumi ba ko sa mukha",lol..then when i got to school,some classmates immediately noticed my hair and said "ang ganda ng gupit mo ngayon"..lol..la lang.not regretful actually pala.:D
