A Toronto man says Canada Post recently delivered to him a package that he ordered online nearly eight years ago.

After a Canada Post delivery person rang his doorbell on May 6, Elliot Berinstein said he found a package from the online retailer Well.ca sitting on his doorstep.

“I opened it and inside was an invoice from 2012 and it was a tube of Brylcream I ordered in 2012,” he told CTVNews.ca during a telephone interview on Tuesday.At the time of his initial order, Berinstein said he had been living in Ottawa and the hair cream never arrived at his address there. He said he contacted Well.ca and they agreed to ship the product again to his home in Toronto because he thought it might be easier.

Berinstein said he didn’t follow-up with Canada Post to see if the national mail operator had received the item for delivery or if there was an accompanying tracking number. In an email to CTVNews.ca on Tuesday, a Canada Post spokesperson said they would investigate the delivery further.

Better late than never!

Better late then never lol

Better late than never

Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night stays these couriers from the swift completion of their appointed rounds' .....🤣😂🤣😂🤣

8 years? Wow. He should've bought a CP Prime membership and gotten guaranteed TWO year delivery and free shipping.

Now that is impressive service!

So there a hope for several letters and small packages lost last June? Canada Post’s response was that I should have my mail sent with a tracking number. IMO if they did the job right, I wouldn’t need to pay extra for a tracking number.

Yeah.....not surprised

CTVAtlantic Brylcream is actually yellow. Still good!

Better late than never

All those tax dollars are finally paying off

Not surprised. My express parcel was stuck in Mexico customs for a month.

There might be hope for my Christmas parcel that didn’t arrive after all!

Oh! I am suppose to receive something June 1st 'this year' 😩

If the box had toilet paper and hand sanatizer.. this couldn’t have been more well-timed! 😂😂😂

I wonder if he felt like he was opening a time capsule.

nicolel4ura looooool

Canada Post delivered it, but probably shipped it 8 years late.

A case study in cause and effect.

canadapost they are the worst!!!!

Special delivery 🤨

lol

Now that's service !!

... If they were laundering money, there would not be any delays hein?

Maybe there is hope after all for packages I’ve had go missing over the years!

Typical of ' Pigeons voyageurs'...actually, they walk your mail right to the door

Wondering if it's a Wilson volleyball

you dont like dont use canada post

lol what a joke! canadapostcorp crappy post delivering at your service :D

I am wondering if that’s when I get my products, 7 years and 10 months to go. 🤣😬🙈

Wow. They finally found it. But hey at least he didn't move.

Wonder how that happens. Must have been waiting in the sky. Fell with the stars

Eventually they get the job done. 👍

Better late than never 🤷🏻‍♀️

I call BS fakenews.

Wow

Sweet!

That's about right for Canada Post.

He’s lucky! We’re about to see how long it would take them to deliver our parcels.

That's about right on econo

The box should read 'Well...'

Right on time then!

The words “DATE PENDING” are in my nightmares. I have been waiting WEEKS for very expensive Nikes I ordered online (because the stores are closed and SAULT STE MARIE DOES NOT HAVE A NIKE STORE)...... if my Nikes are lost, LAWSUIT!!!!!!!!

You get it anyhow ✌️

This is Canada 🇨🇦😂 no strange at all

Better late than never.

That was quick

Well, better late than never! ;)

That looks like such an old Wellca logo too.

Oh geez, I’m still waiting on my Well package

Might be worth something depending what it is lol

I remember back in the 1990s, when I won this prize and it arrived by mail four months later. Fortunately for us, the restaurant was still open.

Looks like Amazon just made a donation to CTV

Who knew they'd be that quick? Lol

That's about right ,you dont want to over work them ..

LOL

I’ve heard of these stories in the states. It does happen.

Hahaha im still waiting...

Only eight years? That has to be a record for CanadaPost, they're never that quick.

No doubt

So you are saying their service and speed is actually improving then?

The real story is that Canada Post actually successfully delivered a package!

You got it early then? 😂
