Thread: Misleading "Pumpkin Wheelbarrow"

    Misleading "Pumpkin Wheelbarrow"

    The Pumpkin wheelbarrow in the holiday shop states "Carry all your pumpkins in this wheelbarrow!" Anyone would assume that simply means either of the two, one, you could carry more then one pumpkin in it, or two, you could travel faster with a pumpkin in it. Now if you don't know already, it does neither of the two. It is simply a toy. I have no idea who came up with such a troll description but it'd be a great idea if the description was changed to maybe idk, "Toy Pumpkin Wheelbarrow"? Anyway, just wanted to warn future Pumpkin-barrow buyers. Safe hunting

    How does the fact that it may have been done on purpose relevant?

    Hey! I just put that description because the toy show the wheelbarrow carrying alot of pumpkins, if it was meant to be something that can help you with the current Pumpkin Activity be sure that i would have put something like this in the description *This will help you with the Pumpkin Activity* and cost gralats instead of pumpkins.

    the only thing that deceived me is to think that the weapon of 2000 pumpkins was good but I do not regret buying it

    Ikea isn't a confusing store to walk around as the builders specifically designed it as a maze

    Intentions does not inherently negate mislead (happy to hear you argue otherwise)

    Ok, well it’s very misleading.

    Could you please argue why starting an argument is bad and why in this situation it is unnecessary? It's difficult to understand where you are coming from. I am only just genuinely curious how intentions and mislead directly correlate and would be glad for any of my wrong beliefs to be corrected.
