Worst business ever

I recently purchased a new PS5 online with GameStop. I have had a very terrible experience. First the estimated delivery was 1 to 3 days. When it didn't arrive and the tracking showed it hadn't left the store the first thing I did was call the store that it was supposed to ship from to see what the hold up was and I was told that they had no way to look up my order in the system at all and that I should call USPS well I had already checked with USPS and they informed me that they had not received it. I then call customer service who can see that I've placed the order but have no idea where it is and that it was estimated as 3 to 5 days instead of the original estimate and the only solutions I was offered was to wait for it or a refund. After 7 business days and 11 days overall I went to my local store to see if they could help me since the package still hasn't left the store. When I got there they did look it up but had no information. I left and called USPS they said they didn't have it and that there was no way that it wouldn't have been scanned at all in 11 days. I then called the store it was shipped from again this time they did look up the order but said they had already sent it and they didn't have it. So I return into the store asking if I can speak with a store manager to resolve this. The store manager said that there was nothing he could do but issue me a refund and sell me one at the same price. Well GameStop has already taken my money a refund according to your policy can take up to a week. I don't have money to buy a second one and wait for a refund that is a lot of money. When I asked if he could call the district manager he refused saying he wasn't allowed to give his number out. I explained that I was not asking for him to give me the number but simply to use the store phone to contact them and see if they had the authority to resolve it. He refused to call anyone saying he wasn't allowed abd that he could email him. I have already waited almost a week and a half I don't want to wait for someone to stumble across an email and get back to me when? I left the store called customer service the only thing they offered was to escalate it to a team who could look into it but couldn't tell me how long that would take or when I would get my product. This is supposed to be a Christmas present for my husband which I had to work extra to be able to afford and now I don't know if I'll be able to give it to him. I feel as though my money has been stolen and no one wanted to help me just pass me off to the next person. I hope the company can improve there services because this does not make me want to be a customer.
