I purchased $50+ of products to be shipped to me in California. As of February 16, 2025 I have not received my order. I have spoken to the owner several times and first, he was going to refund my credit card. In January the owner promised that he would call the dedicated department that handles refunds and that he would call me the next day to confirm. Again, as of February 16, 2025. The owner dropped the ball again. To date I have NOT received a refund, a phone call or the popcorn. The owner commits to actions and fails consistently to deliver and cannot possibly care about customers. I WILL NEVER RECOMMEND THIS TIRED, AWFUL PLACE TO EVEN AN ENEMY. Do not shop here! The owner doesn't tell the truth EVER!!!

I have regretted that decision! It's now been 4 weeks and no product has been delivered despite my multiple calls. The excuses I've received are that they're waiting on bags.
