Mangaluru, May 31: A birthday wish of a five-year-old remained unfulfilled after an online e-commerce portal delivered onions instead of a toy-helicopter.
Mohammed Shaffi, an accountant residing in Neermarga here had ordered a toy helicopter which could be operated via remote control, costing around Rs 1200 as a birthday present for his son on online shopping portal Amazon.
He received the order on Thursday May 31, and to his shock, he found two onions instead of the gift he was waiting for.
"My son, who was really excited about the helicopter, was upset. This is not our first order on Amazon, but this is the first time onions were delivered. When customers get cheated in this fashion, they lose trust in online shopping," he told Daijiworld.
Shaffi later got in touch with the Amazon customer care and sent photos of the package and its contents.
"Amazon has promised me full refund," he said.
