      I live in Ontario, Canada. On April 10, 2023, I have ordered through ******* marketplace a ******** ***, meant to be a birthday gift to my son, who had specifically asked for that console. The delivery date was April 20 and I was fine with it. On April 20, at night when we realized that it was too late for delivery, I emailed ******* customer service who put me in co tact with the seller, Retro V Games, which is based in TX, US. I was contacted by the seller and told that “Cross border shipments tend to take some time and I expect this to be delivered before the end of the month”. Needless to say, this is NOT what I agreed when I purchased the console. Retro v games should take responsibility with clients when setting a delivery date.

      Ordered 10 ******** 64 extension **** only to have 2 come in the mail. They disputed any actions because they have proof of the 2 out of 10 extension paks arriving through the mail. The package weighed in at 1lb when the 10 extension paks would have been 2 and a half to 3 lbs. I was told from customer service that I would be contacted regarding the matter within 3-5 business day multiple times without ever receiving support. I highly do not recommend anyone to do any business with this company as they are scamming their customers. I will still fight to get my situation resolved as this is completely outrageous.
