Bucket selling for Rs 25,999 on Amazon leaves internet in splits, check hilarious responses

The photo of the bucket, which was selling for Rs 25,999, on Amazon is viral on Twitter.

New Delhi: A photo of a bucket selling at a whopping Rs 25,999 is doing rounds on the microblogging platform Twitter. Netizens are amused to see the absurdly high-priced bucket being sold on the e-commerce platform Amazon. Twitter user Vivek Raju shared a photo of the bucket on the microblogging platform. But that’s not it, as the bucket has a maximum retail price of Rs 35,900, meaning that it’s selling at a 28% discount at Rs 25,999. Also, there is nothing special or smart about the bucket. It’s just the usual plastic bucket that we use in our homes. 

“Just found this on Amazon and I don't know what to do," Raju who uses Twitter handle @vivekraju93 said in the caption of the photo. However, this seems like an error on Amazon’s end. The e-commerce company’s Twitter team soon contacted Raju, asking him to share the link of the item in question.

“Our apologies for the inconvenience, we'd like to take a closer look at this. Could you please share the link to the item you are referring to? –Mustafa,” Amazon said in its reply to the Twitter user. He has shared the link to the product, which is now ‘currently unavailable’ on Amazon. 

Probably they entered the price including the decimal point, when there was not need to enter it.

I think what they may have tried was 259.99 but entered 25999 instead.https://t.co/FjMJXFQinf
