A man who bought a $24,000 house on Amazon instantly regretted his decision as he begged his followers to 'take my f*****g card away'.

We all know what it's like to feel the pull of an impulse purchase. No matter how many times you tell yourself you probably don't need it - or can't afford it -sometimes it's too tempting to resist.

And while occasionally you're left with no regrets over the purchase, often you very quickly realise that it wasn't a great idea, after all.

It's exactly what happened to one TikToker, who made an impulse purchase on Amazon.

Now, you can buy pretty much anything you need on Amazon, but one item you probably wouldn't expect to be able to purchase is an actual house.

Well, Jeff - known as @hittaa_jeff on the video-sharing app - has now gone viral around the world for buying a HOUSE - yep, you read that right, a literal HOME - on the online retailer.

Opening up about his questionable decision on social media, the 23-year-old begged his followers to 'take my f*****g card away' after dropping a staggering $24,000 on the mobile-esque house.

"Amazon is really a dangerous place because, really? Houses?" he pondered. "B***h, I didn't even think twice about it. I just did it.

"I don't even know where I'm going to put the house."

Jeff took to TikTok to share that his house had arrived, and that he'd even been offered an upgrade.

Several features of the home have seemingly left Jeff riddled with regret, however.

"She gave me two couches," he happily said, before adding that he'll now have to keep his house in storage, because he hasn't actually purchased any land on which to base it.

Showing off the inside of the house, he thanked the seller for the extra couches, but claimed they weren't really to his liking.

And to top it off, he explained that the ceilings are much lower than he'd initially expected.

Awkward.

"The ceilings - I'm 5'8, so the ceilings are not too high. They're very low," Jeff demonstrated..

And in a follow-up video, Jeff admitted he wouldn't be living in the property himself and had plans to transform it into a holiday home.

"I could touch the ceilings," he recalled.

"The plan is to AirBnb it.

"That’s a smart decision. The electrical, plumbing and everything, I have all that set up. I just really want to get the permits in hand first to move and get everything situated."

Hopefully that way, he'll be able to earn his $24k back!
