How do I place an order on arcsportscards.com?

To place an order, browse our Pokémon trading card products, add items to your cart, and proceed to checkout. Enter your shipping and billing information, select your payment method, and confirm your order. You will receive an order confirmation email once your order is successfully placed.

What payment methods do you accept?

The available payment methods are displayed on the checkout page at the time of your purchase. All transactions are processed in United States Dollars (USD). For more information, please review our Billing Terms.

When is my payment charged?

Your payment method is typically charged when your order is placed or shortly thereafter, depending on your payment method and payment processor. In some cases, a temporary authorization hold may be placed before the final charge.

Can I cancel or modify my order?

If you need to cancel or modify an order, please contact us as soon as possible at contact@arcsportscards.com with your order number. Orders that have already been processed or shipped may not be eligible for cancellation or modification. For details, see our Cancellation Policy.

Depending on our checkout options, you may be able to place an order as a guest or create an account. Creating an account allows you to save your information, view order history, and streamline future purchases.

Shipping & Delivery

Where does Arc SportsCards ship?

Arc SportsCards ships exclusively within the United States. We do not currently offer international shipping.

How long does processing (handling) take?

Our standard handling time is 1–3 business days after your order is placed and payment is confirmed. Orders placed on weekends or federal holidays begin processing on the next business day.

How long is transit time?

Estimated transit time is 4–5 business days after your order is shipped. Actual delivery times may vary depending on your location, the shipping carrier, weather, and other external factors. Transit times are estimates only and are not guaranteed delivery dates.

How can I track my order?

Once your order ships, you will receive a shipping confirmation email that includes your tracking number. Please allow up to 24–48 hours for tracking information to become active. For more information, visit our Track Your Order page.

My tracking hasn't updated. What should I do?

Tracking information may take up to 24–48 hours to appear after shipment, and carriers may occasionally have delays in updating status. If your tracking has not updated for an extended period, please contact us at contact@arcsportscards.com with your order number.

My package is marked delivered but I did not receive it.

Please check around your delivery area, including porches, mailboxes, and with neighbors. Allow 1–2 additional business days, as carriers occasionally mark packages as delivered slightly early. If you still cannot locate your package, contact the shipping carrier using your tracking number, then contact us at contact@arcsportscards.com so we can assist.

What if I entered the wrong shipping address?

Please contact us immediately at contact@arcsportscards.com with your order number. We will attempt to update the address if the order has not yet shipped, but we cannot guarantee changes once an order is in processing.

Returns & Refunds

What is your return window?

We accept eligible returns within 30 days from the date of delivery. See our Refund & Returns Policy for full details.

Do I have to pay for return shipping?

Arc SportsCards provides free eligible returns. If your return meets our eligibility criteria, you will not be charged for return shipping.

How long does inspection take?

Returned products are inspected within 72 hours after being received by Arc SportsCards. You will be notified of the outcome via email.

Can I return an opened Pokémon Booster Pack or Booster Box?

Generally, opened sealed products such as Booster Packs, Booster Boxes, Elite Trainer Boxes, and Blister Packs are not eligible for return unless they arrived damaged, defective, or incorrect. Sealed products must be factory-sealed and unopened to qualify for a standard return.

Can I return a product because I didn't pull the cards I wanted?

No. Pokémon sealed products contain randomized card assortments. Arc SportsCards does not guarantee specific cards, rarities, chase cards, or pulls, and returns are not accepted based on dissatisfaction with randomized results.

How do I request a refund?

Contact us at contact@arcsportscards.com with your order number and reason for the return. Our team will guide you through the return process. Refunds are issued to the original payment method after the return is received and inspected.

Damaged & Incorrect Items

My order arrived damaged. What should I do?

Please contact us at contact@arcsportscards.com with your order number, a description of the damage, and clear photographs of the damaged product and packaging. We'll work with you on a resolution in line with our Warranty Replacement Policy.

I received the wrong item. How do I fix this?

Please contact us as soon as possible at contact@arcsportscards.com with your order number and photos of the item(s) you received. We will work with you to correct the issue.

Are minor packaging imperfections considered damage?

Minor cosmetic imperfections to outer packaging (such as light shelf wear or small dents) that occur during manufacturing, distribution, or transit are typically not considered damage and are not covered by warranty replacement. Significant damage that affects the product or sealed packaging integrity may qualify.

Yes. Sealed Pokémon products (Booster Boxes, Elite Trainer Boxes, Premium Collections, Build & Battle Boxes, Booster Packs, Blister Packs, etc.) are shipped in their factory-sealed condition as received from distribution.

Can you tell me which cards are inside a Booster Pack or Booster Box?

No. Sealed Pokémon Booster Packs, Booster Boxes, and similar products contain randomized card assortments determined by the manufacturer. We have no way to know or influence which specific cards are inside any sealed product.

Do you guarantee chase cards, holo cards, or specific pulls?

No. Arc SportsCards does not guarantee any specific cards, rarities, chase cards, holo cards, reverse holo cards, or any particular pulls unless a product is explicitly marketed with guaranteed inclusions by the manufacturer.

What condition are your Pokémon Singles in?

Card condition is described in each Pokémon Single's listing to the best of our ability. Condition descriptions represent our assessment and may include categories such as Near Mint, Lightly Played, and so on. Minor subjective differences in condition interpretation are common in the trading card hobby.

Are Pokémon cards a good investment?

Arc SportsCards does not describe Pokémon trading cards as financial investments and does not provide investment advice. Market values for collectible cards fluctuate based on many factors outside our control. Please make purchasing decisions based on your enjoyment of collecting.
