If a seller doesn't ask for age verification, that's a huge warning sign. In Ohio, it's not optional. You're probably dealing with a business that cuts corners elsewhere, too—maybe with product quality or safety.

Other red flags:

• No age verification at checkout, even online.
• No physical address or only a Gmail contact.
• Vague product descriptions that avoid mentioning hardware specs.
• Prices that seem too good to be true.

If you see any of these, don't risk it. The device might be fine, but why gamble? Plenty of compliant retailers are out there.
