A shopper was left horrified when the second-hand pair of trainers they purchased online came with a rather unwelcome bonus gift.
Upon opening the parcel with the shoes inside, the Vinted customer discovered pairs of knickers and socks stuffed inside.
While they immediately contacted the seller – calling it “f**king disgusting” and calling the underwear “dirty” – the former owner of the shoes had an excuse.

They replied: “It was to make the shoes not look creased on photos, I forgot to take them out.”
Pictures of the surprise were shared on social media, where the post garnered thousands of likes – but viewers sided with the hapless seller, reports What’s The Jam.
One person commented: “Tbf it looks clean & the buyer is wearing a full hazmat suit but it putting the supposed dirty underwear on the counter? And the seller literally gave a refund.”
“Think buyer needs to grow up,” agreed another user.
Someone else said: “Socks look cleaner than the draining board.”

“For a crusty old pair of trainers?” wondered one user.
Another viewer said: “To be fair it looks clean at least…”
“‘You need to be locked up’ is a bit much,” someone else said.
