Shipping policy

At The Card Habit, we take care to package trading cards and collectibles securely so they arrive in the condition expected.

Orders are generally processed and shipped within 1–3 business days after payment is confirmed.

Processing times may be longer during major product releases, holidays, unusually high order volume, or other circumstances outside our normal operations.

Preorder products may have different shipping timelines, which will be stated on the applicable product page.

Available shipping methods and rates are displayed at checkout based on the contents of the order and delivery destination.

When tracking is included with the selected shipping method, tracking information will be provided after the order ships.

Certain low-value trading card orders may be eligible for letter-mail shipping without full package tracking. If an order is shipped using an untracked method, this will be disclosed where applicable.

Trading cards and collectibles are packaged with protection appropriate for the product.

Depending on the item, packaging may include penny sleeves, rigid card holders, team bags, protective wrapping, cardboard reinforcement, bubble mailers, or shipping boxes.

Sealed products and graded cards will be packaged to help protect against movement and damage during transit.

Estimated delivery times shown at checkout are estimates provided by the shipping carrier and are not guaranteed by The Card Habit.

Carrier delays caused by weather, holidays, transportation disruptions, or other circumstances outside our control may affect delivery times.

If tracking is provided, customers are responsible for monitoring the tracking information associated with their shipment.

Tracking may occasionally take additional time to update after a package has been accepted by the carrier.

If a tracked order has not received a tracking update for an extended period or appears to be lost, please contact us so we can review the shipment and determine the appropriate next steps.

Please allow reasonable time for carrier delays before reporting an order as missing.

We will work with customers and the shipping carrier when necessary to investigate qualifying lost-package claims.

If an order arrives damaged, please contact us as soon as reasonably possible.

Please retain the item, shipping container, packaging materials, and shipping label, and provide photographs of the damage when requested. These materials may be required when submitting a carrier claim.

Damaged orders will be handled in accordance with our Return & Refund Policy.

Customers are responsible for providing a complete and accurate shipping address at checkout.

If you notice an error in your shipping address, contact us immediately. We will make reasonable efforts to correct the address before shipment, but changes cannot be guaranteed after an order has entered processing.

If an order is returned to us because of an incorrect, incomplete, or undeliverable address provided by the customer, additional shipping charges may be required to resend the order.

Orders returned because they were refused, unclaimed, or otherwise undeliverable may be subject to additional shipping charges if reshipment is requested.

Any applicable refund will be handled according to our Return & Refund Policy.

We currently reserve the right to limit shipping destinations or shipping methods when necessary due to carrier restrictions, product restrictions, fraud-prevention concerns, or other operational considerations.

If you have questions about an order or shipment, please contact us through TheCardHabit.com and include your order number when available.
