Refund policy

Returns & Refund Policy

We carry board games, Funko, plush, TCG accessories, collectibles, and sealed trading-card products - items where condition and authenticity are everything. Because of that, all sales are final - but we always stand behind the condition of what we ship.

Quick Summary

  • All sales are final. We do not accept returns or exchanges for change of mind or buyer's remorse.
  • We accept claims only for items that arrive defective, damaged in transit, or incorrect (wrong item shipped).
  • Report problems within 7 days of delivery with clear photographs of the item and the packing slip.
  • For approved problem-claims, we cover return shipping and will replace, repair, or refund at our discretion.
  • We are not responsible for minor manufacturer packaging imperfections (small rips, scuffs, corner dings).
  • Cancellation requests before fulfillment incur a 10% processing fee; orders cannot be canceled after shipment.
  • Preorders ship upon release; if ordered with other items, they ship together.

All Sales Are Final

Because of the nature of collectibles and sealed/trading-card products, we do not accept returns, refunds, or exchanges for change of mind, accidental orders, or buyer's remorse. Please review your order carefully before purchasing.

When We Do Accept a Claim

We will make it right if your item arrives:

  • Defective - a genuine manufacturing defect (not minor packaging wear), or
  • Damaged in transit, or
  • Incorrect - you received the wrong item.

To qualify, you must:

  • Contact us within 7 days of delivery at savvysupport@savvyhobbyist.com.
  • Provide clear photographs of the item received, the damage/defect, and the packing slip.
  • Keep the item and all original packaging until your claim is resolved.

Do not ship anything back without our approval - unapproved returns will not be accepted. If we approve a return, we will provide a prepaid return label; we cover return shipping on legitimate defect, damage, or wrong-item claims.

Sealed Trading Card Products

For sealed trading card products (booster packs, booster boxes, Elite Trainer Boxes, collection boxes, premium collection boxes, etc.), a valid claim means the sealed product itself arrived physically damaged, tampered, or incorrect. We cannot accept claims based on the contents of sealed packs - pull rates, specific cards, or hit value are random by nature and are not grounds for a return or refund.

Damages & Issues

  • Inspect your order as soon as it arrives and report any damage, defect, or error within 7 days of delivery with photos.
  • We are not responsible for minor packaging imperfections (small rips, scuffs, corner dings) that originate from the manufacturer; these are not considered defects.

Exchanges

No exchanges, except for items that are truly defective, damaged in transit, or incorrect - handled through the claim process above.

Refunds

  • Approved refunds are issued after we receive and inspect the returned item (when a return is required) or once your claim is otherwise approved.
  • Depending on your bank, funds may take up to 10 business days to appear.
  • If more than 15 business days have passed since approval, contact savvysupport@savvyhobbyist.com.

Cancellations

  • Cancellation requests before fulfillment incur a 10% processing fee (covers non-refundable transaction costs).
  • Orders cannot be canceled after shipment.

Pricing Policy

Prices fluctuate with market conditions. We cannot adjust your purchase price after a sale because prices later rose or fell, and we do not accept returns or exchanges due to market price changes.

Preorders (Presale)

  • Preorder items ship on or after their official release date.
  • Delays may occur due to logistics; we'll notify you if this happens.
  • Preorder release dates may change without notice.
  • If your order includes preorders, the entire order ships together once all items are available. Want other items sooner? Place separate orders.
  • Preorders cannot be canceled once placed.
