I ordered dummies on Amazon – I was horrified when they arrived, it’s disgusting

A MUM was left fuming after buying dummies for her toddler on Amazon – which turned up USED.

Lindsey Macrae, 30, was horrified when the items – which she has ordered as brand new – arrived spitty and chewed.

And she claims daughter Aria, two, could have choked because one dummy was so badly bitten there was a flap hanging off it.

But it’s understood Lindsey, from Glasgow, has been refunded and given a gift voucher after raising a complaint.

She said: “I was utterly stunned. I felt so sick and horrified.

“They haven’t just been used once or twice – but for weeks and weeks and weeks.

“They’re completely chewed and I can see spit bubbles in them. They smell of another baby’s mouth.

“What if I hadn’t noticed and she’d put one in her mouth – she could have caught a bug or anything.

“One of them has a huge flap hanging off the teat that could have gone in her throat and choked her.

“I just can’t imagine how this has happened at all.”

The furious stay-at-home mum phoned Amazon customer services three times until she got an answer, she claims.

The call handler apologised, refunded £6.85 for the product, and offered her a £5 credit.

But Lindsey said that wasn’t good enough.

She said: “It’s absolutely shocking. They didn’t even try to explain or defend it.

“He just didn’t understand how serious this is.

“I’ve had a broken mop bucket arrive before, which is fine, you just get a new one.

“But this is completely different and potentially much more dangerous.

“This isn’t a mistake you can afford to make.”

Amazon did not comment.
