In today’s age of online shopping, many of us buy kitchen essentials from different sites. Be it utensils like pressure cookers, woks or tawas or grocery items like bread, chips and flour, everything is delivered with just a click. But has anyone ever had one delivered to your doorstep even years after placing the order? This is exactly what happened to a man who ordered a pressure cooker from Amazon two years ago. He placed the order in October 2022 and it finally arrived in August 2024. Interestingly, the user mentioned that he had cancelled the order and even got a refund at that time, yet the package arrived suddenly. Sounds funny, right?

The user responded to the company, writing, “What to report? Order cancelled and refunded back in 2022? And delivered out of nowhere yesterday. How do I pay for it now?”

Another joked, “I think your order is coming from a parallel universe, that’s why it took 2 years to reach you.”
