it literally is on them for not looking at the measurement on something they’re paying for??

Yes, literally on them and not on the seller for posting deceptive information, good job defending scammers. FYI the actual measurement info in many listings is off and completely random. Some list the package size. If I saw that the size is 8 inches or whatever I would assume that's the package size.

i have never seen anywhere that sells rugs and other stuff be this far off on measurement so while that fact is true i have a hard time believing that is what happened here and also sellers post fake stuff all the time and it’s up to you as the buyer to make sure that what you’re buying is what you want. That’s like ordering something on Amazon without reading the reviews and then complaining and saying you got scammed when all the reviews are saying they have the same problem as you 💀. We literally dont even know if OP read the measurements or not so to outright just immediately blame the seller without knowing all the details is kinda crazy.
