A woman shared how she had ordered some Mao Shan Wang durians from an online seller through Facebook messenger.
She got in touch with them on 13 May to ask about the durians and was told that it was out of stock, and they then discussed about the other kinds of durians.
The woman then got a message from the seller informing her that the “supply had arrived”, and she also received photos of durians that were repacked inside styrofoam boxes.
She then asked the seller if the durian in the photo was Mao Shan Wang. but the seller didn’t answer her question.
She also asked about the price and was told that it was $98 for 5 boxes, with each box being at least 400 grams.
The woman then arranged for delivery on 22 May, and she said that when she got the durians, they didn’t taste like Mao Shan Wang.
She then messaged the seller about her order but didn’t receive a reply until about a few days later, and was informed that it wasn’t Mao Shan Wang.
The seller told her that the durian was King of Kings, which was another kind of durian.
The woman alleged that the seller told her “as spoken, (she) should’ve kept the durians aside if the order was wrong”, but she said that she didn’t receive any calls or spoke to them before.
The seller then allegedly told her that if she wants Mao Shan Wang, she would have to order again or return the previous durians.
She then said that she asked the seller why she wasn’t given Mao Shan Wang but the seller gave her another kind of durian, to which the seller then asked her “why not we compromise each other”.
The woman then accused the seller of cheating her and said she would be reporting him, the seller then taunted her and sent her a screenshot of Covid-19 recovery hotlines, telling her to “wait for their call”.
