Everyone will get frustrated when something you ordered online takes longer than expected to arrive. But for a Canadian man, his delayed delivery order is on a whole new level.
Elliot Berinstein, a doctor who live in Toronto, Canada received a package from Well.ca and was delivered by Canada Post. When he opened the package, he found out that it was a hair product he ordered in 2012.
“I was very confused because hadn’t ordered anything from Well.ca in a while,” he said.
“And then I remembered one time about eight years ago I ordered something from them,” he added.
In the package, there was one tube of Brylcreem hair product he ordered in 2012.
“If I remember correctly, [the show] Mad Men was pretty popular back then, so I think I was trying to get the Donald Draper kind of haircut,” he said.
“Probably good it didn’t show up, though.”
He wanted to try the hair cream at first, but when opened the tube, the cream that supposed to be white, turned bright yellow.
“I think it was just in a corner somewhere and then someone just decided to mail it,” he said.
“I thought it was pretty funny that they just didn’t throw it out or something. … I wonder why now they sent it out since they’re pretty far behind on their current packages and stuff.” he added.
Well.ca had noticed the post when it went viral and contacted him after and some him some new hair products to try too and use another courier option instead.
He also tried to reach out to the courier service company but has yet to receive responses.
“I’m not looking for a refund or anything — the product was only $5. But it would be funny to see what they’d say,” he added.
