In an unusual event, a man expecting a high-end camera lens worth Rs 90,000 from Amazon was shocked when he reportedly received a shipment containing quinoa seeds instead. The unforeseen confusion has raised concerns about the accuracy and reliability of the e-commerce giant’s fulfillment process.
The man, a photography enthusiast from India, had carefully chosen and ordered the camera lens through Amazon’s online site. He awaited the arrival of the coveted photographic equipment with bated breath, only to be met with disappointment and uncertainty upon opening the package.
On July 5, Arun Kumar Meher ordered a Sigma 24-70 f 2.8 lens from Amazon. He turned himself in the next day, but when he opened it, he was taken aback. He claimed that the box had already been opened and that it contained quinoa seeds instead of the camera lens. He also included a couple of images of the quinoa seeds that came with the lens box.

Meher posted a photo of the received item in his initial tweet. According to the brand name embossed on the box that contained the quinoa seeds, it was a package of Sigma lenses.
