Man gets parcel four years after placing the order, says ‘never lose hope’
After a four-year wait, a man has finally received the order he placed on AliExpress back in 2019.
In today’s digital age, online shopping has revolutionised people’s lives, providing convenience and accessibility like never before. From groceries to electronics, one can have a wide range of products delivered right to their doorstep within a few hours or days. However, there are times when our orders get delayed for various reasons, leaving usw awaiting their arrival. Something similar happened with a man who placed an order from AliExpress, a Chinese e-commerce company. The man didn’t receive his order after days, weeks or months, but after a staggering four-year wait. Yes, you read that right!

Social media influencer Nitin Agarwal took to Twitter to share that he had received his parcel after four years of placing the order. According to Agarwal, the order was placed in 2019 and was delivered in 2023. “Never lose hope! So, I ordered this from AliExpress (now banned in India) back in 2019 and the parcel was delivered today,” wrote Agarwal alongside a picture of the parcel he had received. It is worth noting that AliExpress, the platform from which Agarwal made his purchase, had been banned in India by the government in 2020, along with other Chinese apps.
