Sweary lady surprised to receive forty bags of fish after ordering table and chairs on eBay

Becky Smith, 21, from Harold Hill, east London, spent £184.95 on a stylish dining set from a seller on eBay.



But when the delivery driver dropped off two large boxes at her home on Wednesday, she was horrified to see she had mistakenly become the owner of around 150 live fish.

Becky feared she had mistakenly ordered the animals before a red-faced delivery driver came back later that day to apologise. She said: "I went on eBay and ordered a six-chairs and a black and glass table.

"They said I would get it in two days’ time. I answered the door they dropped it off. I took it in my house opened it and there was 40 bags of tropical fish. I was so shocked."

The follow up to this, is that the table and chairs were delivered later that day, the fish were meant for a local pet shop, who got them later
