These orders will be shipped via USPS Ground with standard insurance unless another shipping method is selected.
Customers may always elect a different shipping method at checkout if they prefer faster delivery, tracking, or additional insurance. Rates for alternative methods are calculated at checkout.

For orders below $3.00, PWE shipping is available for:
- $1 for 1–9 cards.
PWE Eligibility and Restrictions:
- Ineligible Items: Cards valued over $20.00, slabs, encased cards, or thicker cards (e.g., relics).

- Delivery timeframe: 3–10 business days, depending on USPS.
3. Standard Shipping Options (Domestic and International)
- For orders under $3.00 or for customers preferring additional speed or insurance, standard shipping options via USPS or UPS are available at checkout.

Order Processing and Shipping Times
Orders placed by 4:00 PM (CST) on a business day will ship the following business day. Orders placed after 4:00 PM, on weekends, or on holidays will be processed and shipped on the next available business day.
During high-volume periods (e.g., holidays or sales), processing times may be extended by 1–2 business days.
Additional Information
Lost or Damaged Shipments:
- PWE Shipments: Refunds or replacements are not available for lost or missing mail sent via PWE.
- Tracked Shipments: For packages with tracking, please contact us within 7 days of the estimated delivery date if your order is lost or damaged.
Combined Orders:
If your order contains both PWE-eligible and ineligible items (e.g., slabs or thicker cards), the entire order will default to USPS Ground shipping if it exceeds $20 or the appropriate standard shipping method otherwise.
Insurance for Free Shipping:
Free shipping includes only the standard insurance provided by USPS Ground for orders over $20. Customers requiring additional insurance or faster delivery may select another shipping option at checkout.
