Orders
Once your order ships you will receive a confirmation email with your tracking number and carrier information. Please allow up to 24 hours for tracking to update. If you cannot find your tracking email, check your spam folder or contact us at support@hobbyvelvet.shop with your order number.
Orders can be cancelled or modified before they ship. Email us as soon as possible at support@hobbyvelvet.shop with your order number. Once an order has been dispatched it can no longer be changed — our standard Return & Refund Policy will apply at that point.
Full payment is collected when you place your pre-order. Once the item is received by us it enters our standard fulfillment process — 1–3 business days processing and 3–7 business days shipping. If a supplier changes a release date we will notify you immediately. You may cancel a pre-order for a full refund at any time before it ships.
Check your spam or junk folder first. If you still cannot find it within an hour of placing your order, contact us at support@hobbyvelvet.shop with the name and email address used at checkout and we will look into it immediately.
Shipping
Orders are processed within 1–3 business days after payment is confirmed. Once shipped, delivery takes 3–7 business days within the United States. You will receive a tracking email as soon as your order ships.
Yes — completely free on every order, no minimum purchase required. The price you see on the product page is exactly what you pay at checkout. No hidden fees, no thresholds.
We ship using USPS, UPS, and FedEx from our facility in Hayti, Missouri. The carrier selected for your order depends on your location, package dimensions, and weight to ensure the most reliable and safest delivery.

We accept returns within 30 days of delivery on unopened, factory sealed items in their original condition. Opened hobby boxes, booster packs, or any other opened sealed product cannot be returned under any circumstances. To start a return, email us at support@hobbyvelvet.shop with your order number and reason.

Products
Always — without exception. Every product at Hobby Velvet is 100% genuine and sourced exclusively from authorized distributors. We have a strict zero-tolerance policy on resealed, tampered, or counterfeit products. For full details, visit our Authenticity Guarantee page.
We specialize in premium sealed hobby boxes and collectibles including Pokémon, Lorcana, Marvel, Panini, and Prizm. All products are sourced through authorized distributor channels. Our catalogue is always expanding — check back regularly for new arrivals and pre-orders.
No — and no retailer anywhere can. The specific cards inside any sealed hobby box or booster pack are determined entirely by the manufacturer at production. What we guarantee is that every sealed product leaves us 100% factory sealed and completely untouched.
Availability is shown in real time on each product page. If an item is sold out, email us at support@hobbyvelvet.shop and we will let you know as soon as we have a restock date or if a pre-order option becomes available.

We accept Credit Card (Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Discover), Debit Card, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and Link by Stripe — all processed securely through Stripe, a PCI-DSS Level 1 certified payment platform. All options are available at checkout with no additional fees.
Payment is collected in full at the time of purchase — for both in-stock and pre-order items. A confirmation email is sent to you immediately after your payment is successfully processed.
