A woman has claimed she paid £80 for an iPhone 6 as part of a Black Friday deal but received a box of potatoes instead.

The unnamed US woman said that a man was driving around her Wisconsin neighbourhood in a truck with Black Friday posters and balloons.

She said the vehicle was filled with retail products including "clothes, shoes, watches, purses, DVDs, CDs, phones, and laptops".

When she asked how much she would have to pay for an iPhone 6, she said the man offered her a discount rate of £80 ($100).

She said: "He hands me an iPhone 6... I'm playing with it, turning it around, checking it.

"I ask him to call the phone and he showed me the number and I'm like 'cool, it's legit, it's working, I want it'."

But the woman said that upon returning home, she discovered the man had actually sold her a box of eleven chopped potatoes.

"I sit at my kitchen table about to play with the phone...The box is heavy, and I get home, and this n****** sold me a box of potatoes.

"A box of potatoes for $100... gave me one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven cut up potatoes."

The box also included an Android phone charger, to which the woman said: "What the heck am I supposed to do with this?"
