26-365 Alberts Adventures shopping on the internet




The problems of buying online.

Recently Albert has been saving money for a new zoom lens for his camera. His not the brightest when it comes to using computers. But despite this, Albert was determined to get this lens off the internet so save money.

So after a while of surfing the web, he found the perfect one and bought it in a flash. When the parcel arrived today, to Albert's surprise, the box was a lot bigger than he had anticipated. It measured a massive 30 cm long and 20cm high.

Albert presumed the seller was just being careful and filling it with packaging so it did not get broken. But to Albert's joy when he opened the box there it was, the lens he wanted, however there was a slight snag. This lens was 100times bigger than Albert's camera and the picture on the internet that Albert had seen. Suddenly Albert realised that he had made a massive mistake, and that the picture size on the internet is not the actual size of the product. How will Albert sort this mess out now...
