I won a picky giveaway but

So on July 8th I won picky’s sunscreen giveaway through Instagram. They had dmed me asking for my address and details. I was happy eagerly waiting for my 3 sunscreen that I won but on August 1st when I asked them about my prize they texted me saying they can’t ship it to my country 🥹. And asked whether I want picky points I said no and told I want the gift that I won and they kept my texts on seen. Tbh they ship giveaways to my country. I already have picky points but I don’t win giveaways too. Isn’t it unfair how they treated me ?

They really should have checked the participants location before picking and contacting the winner. It would have saved a lot of time and heartbreak 💔 I'd be upset too if this happened to me. Hope you'll get to win plenty of other giveaways that ships to you in the future 🤍

They responded saying that my country won’t let them ship itseems. But I received so many brand pr from Korea and other countries 🤧. Also they asked whether I’m ready to wait till they ship it might take months

That sucks! They should have made it clear from the beginning if there are countries they can't ship to. I've seen many brands on IG who provide a list of countries they are unable to ship to due to strict customs. It's easy to do and it helps to avoid situations like these.

Yes! After texting that I won and took my details made me wait for 1month and when I asked that time they told about this. Which is totally unacceptable 🙂
