Delhi Technician Nitin Agarwal tweeted on June 22nd, ``Don't lose hope, because in 2019 a parcel ordered on AliExpress (now banned in India) It was delivered today.' If you look at the attached image, you can see that the parcel has a postmark dated May 23, 2019.



What's notable about this one is that it arrived more than four years after AliExpress became unavailable in India. The Indian government has announced a ban on Chinese apps multiple times in 2020, and AliExpress was among the more than 200 blocked apps.

The measure made it impossible to buy goods directly from AliExpress in India, as not only the app but also the service was blocked. According to the Indian news media India Today, there is an agency service that imports AliExpress products to India, although the fee is high, and you can also order from AliExpress from India by accessing from the IP address of another country using a VPN. . However, the Indian government is calling on people not to use VPNs to access banned apps, so they could be punished.

Mr. Agarwal's tweets have been viewed more than 74,000 times at the time of article creation, and many retweets have been received. Among them was an enviable reply, 'I ordered it on AliExpress in 2018, but it hasn't arrived yet. Let's see if I get lucky.'



In addition, although it took eight months to deliver the products ordered on AliExpress, there are also experiences that AliExpress refunded the full amount during that time.



In addition, there was also a Twitter user in Mexico who received the product ordered on the mail order site in his country after 6 and a half years, although it is not AliExpress.
