Coco: Did the tank tops not fit? I can help you return them.

是紧身上衣不合适吗？我可以帮你退了。

Taylor: No, I am not talking about the tank tops. They fit perfectly actually. I will wear one next time and you'll see. It's this other order I placed another day. I got two pairs of jeans and they could not look farther from the pictures.

不是，我不是说紧身上衣。他们非常合身。下次我穿一件你就知道了。我是说我有一天下的另一个单。我买了两条牛仔裤，他们不能和图片的差异更大了。

Coco: I totally get what you are saying. Online shopping is a hit or miss. Even if you read all the reviews, you still can't be 100% sure until you see the products yourself.

我完全理解你在说什么。网上购物就是碰运气。哪怕你读了所有评论，直到看到商品前你都无法百分之百放心。

Taylor: Exactly. The color is very off, and they were returns.

没错。(牛仔裤的)颜色完全不对，而且他们是别人的退货。

Coco: How come?

怎么回事？

我试裤子时把手放在了口袋了，然后拉出来了不知道是哪儿的加油站的收据。

Coco: What the heck? You should definitely file a complaint and get a full refund for it.

什么？你绝对得投诉然后拿全额退款。
