A Taylor Swift fan has issued a warning to others interested in buying merchandise to be wary of the prices before purchasing.

In a TikTok video, the Swiftie revealed she’d been ‘overcharged’ after waiting hours at the merch stand in Sydney on Wednesday.

The fan, named Brittany, showed her followers the insane amount of items she purchased which included five of the same T-shirt, two of the same tote bag, a water bottle, five of the same hoodie as well as one zip hoodie.

‘So just got back from buying my Eras Tour merch,’ she began, stating that some of the items are for ‘friends who were at work’.

‘But I realised I got scammed over $300. Because instead of charging us for the five tees, they charged us five hoodies,’ she added.

‘The tees are $65 and the hoodies are $120. So the math ain’t mathing.’

Brittany then asked users and fans for advice on the matter now that she’s $360 out of pocket.

‘I don’t know what to do. Has anyone been overcharged by the Taylor Swift merch? Has anyone fallen victim to Taylor Swift merch?’ she continued.

‘I know it was obviously an accident, but I don’t know how to go about getting my money back. Because it’s a lot of money… $120 for a tee is just not what we wanted to spend.’

She wrote in her caption: ‘Waited 2.5 hours so really don’t want to go back. I know it was obviously an accident but does anyone know who I can contact to get a refund?’

While some fans offered their support in how to get a refund, others defended the  staff’s ‘mistake’.

‘”I didn’t check my order before I paid” is not a scam,’ one user commented.

‘That’s not a scam, you said yourself it was an accident,’ added another.

‘I don’t think that’s a scam. That’s a mistake. Write in for a refund. Also, maybe good for folk to calculate what their total should be. To avoid this,’ someone else wrote.

Meanwhile, others claimed several Swifties suffered similar issues in which they were overcharged.

‘Same thing happened to me – got no receipt and no way they would even know how to prove it,’ someone commented.

‘I’ve heard sooooo many people get over charged in Melbourne,’ another wrote.
