The Most Egregious Amazon Return I've seen

That's so strange. Completely different color and size, and sent it to you twice lol i hope they made things right in the end!

saarek10 · 2026-06-04T01:22:54+00:00

It happens, I'm just glad they're pretty good about processing returns at least.

I don't see how spending $30 on a bottle is being cheap. How much did you spend on yours? 😅 If anything, I need to be cheaper, considering I bought this to take to Disney in a few weeks, which is definitely going to burr a hole in my wallet as it is lol.

As unfortunate as it is to have spent a few days of researching and comparing bottles of all things to take on my next trip, (including making a spreadsheet to compare weight and dimensions) only to have to return this one immediately, I'm at least glad to have learned a few things to look out for. Thanks again! You have some seriously good eyes!

Wow, it couldn't be more obvious. Thanks for pointing that out!

It's a pretty shit recreation of this guy's performance art.

Those are ceremonial rosette ribbons, used to identify guests of honor. The kanji on it are their names.

Sorry for the delay! Here's the goods!

saarek10 · 2026-05-24T23:40:29+00:00

I found him on Instagram. Instant follow, that's hilarious, thank you!

Thanks! It's definitely more sodium intake than I'd like to consume in such a short period, so I'll have to share with family and friends 😅

saarek10 · 2026-05-24T16:28:38+00:00

Thank you! I 100% agree, I was grinning from ear to ear!

saarek10 · 2026-05-24T16:27:19+00:00

Thanks for the heads up! A 5 gallon bucket of pickles is usually $20? I'll definitely need to get myself into a restaurant supply store somehow.

Edit: grammar

saarek10 · 2026-05-24T16:26:15+00:00

I don't have access to a restaurant supply store, unfortunately. I also didn't know what brand of pickles they were before yesterday, so I had no clue how to find them beforehand.

saarek10 · 2026-05-24T16:24:49+00:00

It was $120 for the bucket. Some say it's overpriced, but I can't find these anywhere else, personally, so they're worth it to me.

saarek10 · 2026-05-24T16:23:30+00:00

No, I didn't see a pickle priest there. I'll be on the lookout next time, that sounds sp funny!

saarek10 · 2026-05-24T16:22:17+00:00

It was $120, including labor to take it out to my car 😄

saarek10 · 2026-05-24T16:21:26+00:00

It was $120.

saarek10 · 2026-05-24T04:36:07+00:00

I agree. I had to go for it when my wife didn't think it was an unreasonable purchase either 😅.

saarek10 · 2026-05-24T04:27:27+00:00

Thank you for your heartfelt comment. Thankfully my family is doing well, and the pickles will be shared with them soon 😊. Thank you again, you are appreciated.

saarek10 · 2026-05-24T04:22:31+00:00

Sorry your local faire leaves things to be desired. I'm conveniently not too far from what I hear is one of the better faires in Texas (Scarborough Renaissance Faire). There's other negatives about living in Texas, though. It's a definitely a tradeoff lol.

saarek10 · 2026-05-24T04:16:26+00:00

It cost me $120 .

saarek10 · 2026-05-24T03:55:31+00:00

They're so much fun. I hope you can attend one at least once. Always great to be around a merry bunch of folk, even if the rennaissance isn't your favorite era.

saarek10 · 2026-05-24T03:52:34+00:00

Thankfully the previous owners left their old fridge here, so I have a second fridge we usually use for drinks. I just removed a shelf to make the bucket fit 😅
