Great buying experience

Great buying experience! Sam contacted me right away with a question following my purchase, and the phone was shipped two business days later. Prior to purchase, I contacted Mike (Average Dad) directly on Whatsapp about price matching another site, and he discounted the phone (a Xiaomi 17 Pro Max) below all other stores. Although some may find his personality abrasive, he's just very protective/proud of his staff and his brand. I'm in his Whatsapp phone group, chat with him daily, and I've never had a bad interaction with him.

I would strongly recommend this site for anyone looking to import a phone!

Recommended.

Recommended! Bought a phone from them which needed to be imported. Good timely and frequent communication from start to finish. Delivery as expected. No problems.
The only thing I would have liked would be a phone contact number instead of email.

Great store and Experience!

Had a great experience purchasing the Xiaomi 17 Pro from Average Dad... delivered safe and sound to Canada! Communication was fantastic throughout the buying process, definitely will buy from this store again! Just wish they stocked the Redmi K80 Ultra, I'd buy that in a heartbeat too!

It works

Slightly overpriced compared to compatitor sites and apparently took longer to arrive than other compatitor sites but at least it arrived on time and support is repsonsive (when they asked for my FedEx acc #).
