While I appreciate that a mystery can be a bit disappointing, I didn't expect to find 3 small items with a value of $20 in my delivery that took about 50 days to arrive.
The website states:
- 2-10 Electronic Products -> yes, got 3 items valued at $20 (I could have ordered those from Amazon, would have saved $80)
- 1 Gift Card valued from $5-$200 -> No gift card included
- Mystery Experience Portal access
- 1 Special Surprise item worth up to $1200 (see possible items list below) -> Unless one of the 3 items was an item "up to $1200", I didn't get that
- Mystery Box themed gift box -> My theme was: A partially damaged, plastic-wrapped bag, containing 2 small boxes
Free Shipping option in the US, CA, AU, EU, UK: -> Not sure how to get that option, I was charged a few dollars for something that comes much, much quicker if I ordered it directly from AliExpress

My take on things: Since it is called "Mystery" it can't be called legally a scam. However, I feel scammed.

 Think about it: the only reason someone would sell a "mystery box" instead of just selling the items in it is if the items are worth less than what they are charging. In other words, it's a scam by definition. And yeah, scammers usually scam you in multiple ways. And I assume you knew you weren't getting free shipping when you placed the order?
