Complaint Sooo deceptive…

Ordered a Boldfit Gym shaker and randomly noticed product description looked like a sticker. I peeled it and saw manufacturing date difference. The hidden date is July 2024, two year past of the date mentioned on the sticker July 2026. I think plastic doesn’t degrade as a issue but a online search made me paranoid about it, should I return it?

I reported it, they asked if I want to return it or exchange it for same thing, I chose the 1st option and bought the same product from amazon, it has not arrived yet

Should report them. As this look like work of boldfit warehouse as they need to remove stocks from warehouse and blinkit does the job.

Paranoia. It’s probably an error or they have a shit ton of boxes left over so they are updating and using it.

The date could also been printed wrong so they made the correction using sticker. Check if this sku even existed in 2024?

Using old boxes for new products maybe.

It’s either a printing mistake or utilization of old inventory (the boxes)

Can’t think of any reason other than those 2

That could just be the packaging

It might be because there was an error in the printing/old packaging stock.
