Hopefully, this was just a mistake and not someone at Amazon trying to send a message.
希望這只是一個(gè)錯(cuò)誤,而不是亞馬遜的人試圖發(fā)送的信號(hào)。
A London man ordered an Apple Watch from the popular website, but when the shipment arrived in the mail, he was in for a surprise. Apparently, somebody at Amazon made a bit of a mistake.
一名倫敦男子從熱門網(wǎng)站上訂購(gòu)了一只蘋果手表,但當(dāng)貨物郵寄到時(shí),他感到意外。顯然,亞馬遜的某個(gè)人犯了一個(gè)小錯(cuò)誤。
John Browne took advantage of a Black Friday sale to purchase the model Apple Watch for about $387, reported South West News Service, a British news agency. Unfortunately, instead of the high tech watch, Browne received a $5 plunger.
據(jù)英國(guó)西南新聞社(South West News Service)報(bào)道,約翰·布朗(John Browne)利用黑色星期五的促銷活動(dòng),以387美元左右的價(jià)格購(gòu)買了這款蘋果手表。不幸的是,布朗得到的不是高科技手表,而是5美元的活塞。
“It was a pre-Christmas treat for myself and I have wanted one for a long time,” Browne told SWNS.“I waited for Black Friday specifically and it was a calculated move on my part. It got delivered to me at work and I went down to collect it at reception.”
“這對(duì)我自己來說是一個(gè)圣誕節(jié)前的禮物,我已經(jīng)想要很長(zhǎng)時(shí)間了,”布朗告訴SWNS,“我特別期待黑色星期五,這對(duì)我來說是精心策劃的一步??爝f在上班時(shí)送到我這兒的,我去前臺(tái)取的。”
Unfortunately, the box wasn’t exactly what he was expecting.
不幸的是,這個(gè)盒子并不是他所期望的那樣。
“I opened it in front of the reception staff and they started howling with laughter,” Browne continued. “They were all in absolute hysterics. But I was absolutely fuming and I had to hold it back in front of them. I was very annoyed and was dreading the impending faff to get it sorted with Amazon.”
“我在接待人員面前打開它,他們開始大笑起來,”布朗繼續(xù)說。“他們都完全歇斯底里了。但我真的很生氣,我不得不在他們面前忍住。我非常惱火,害怕即將發(fā)生的麻煩會(huì)讓我跟亞馬遜徹底鬧掰。”
He told SWNS that he considered it such a massive mistake that he couldn’t believe it.
他告訴SWNS,他認(rèn)為這是一個(gè)巨大的錯(cuò)誤,以至于他無法相信。
While Amazon acknowledged that the order was wrong, they had more bad news for Browne — the color and design of the watch that he wanted was sold out by the time the mistake was discovered.
雖然亞馬遜承認(rèn)訂單有誤,但他們給布朗帶來了更壞的消息——他想要的手表的款式在發(fā)現(xiàn)錯(cuò)誤時(shí)已經(jīng)售罄。
“I tried to order it for a second time and it had sold out,” Browne explained. “It has massively annoyed me. It’s just not good enough and all of the planning I put into getting the watch has gone out of the window.”
布朗尼解釋說:“我試著第二次訂購(gòu),但已經(jīng)賣完了。這讓我非常惱火。一切都糟透了,我為買手表所做的一切計(jì)劃都落空了。”
