Note on International Orders: If you are shipping outside of the United States, please place your order by November 26 to clear international customs in time for the holidays.

📦 Important: How Your Items Will Ship

We source the best manufacturers for specific items rather than relying on a single factory. If you order a tabletop game, a book, and a piece of apparel in the same cart, they will arrive in separate packages on different days.

  • Games & Playing Cards: Printed and shipped directly from The Game Crafter's facility in Wisconsin. You can track your position in their live production queue from your receipt.

  • Apparel & Home Goods: Printed and shipped from Printful's facilities in North Carolina or California.

  • Books & Literature: Printed and shipped from Lulu's global network of printing facilities (routed to the facility closest to your delivery address).

You will receive separate tracking numbers via email as each portion of your order clears production and ships.
