Sometimes, the prices really are too good to be true. Now that we're in gift-purchasing season—you know, that time of year when you suddenly remember that you actually do not have sufficient funds to make everyone's holiday dreams come true—it's time to take a look at the times people thought they found the perfect gift online… and well, it didn't turn out as they had hoped.
