In-stock titles ship within 3-5 days. Novel Editions ship 1 month after pre-order closes. Pre-orders ship with the final release in our order.

If you order multiple pre-order books that have different release dates in your order, they will ship when the FINAL book is released due to combined shipping.

We do our best to help with this by listing both the brand of our items, as well as the item measurements on each listing.

Our recommendation is to double check against a current item you own to compare sizing. Everyone likes their clothing to fit differently.

Almost everything in our shop ships worldwide. We have some items such as our sweaters that are restricted in certain countries.

Please use our help form if you have verified your address, and it is not an item labelled as restricted shipping.

We do! We have started to collect VAT at time of order, and have secured discounted international shipping rates with USPS and DHL. We are still in the early stages of this implementation and we apologize for any glitches in the process.

Our Items are made with a direct-to-garment (DTG) printing technology, it uses high-quality inks that won't fade for a long time if taken care of properly.

Keep in mind that the original manufacturer's care instructions don't take into consideration the DTG printing process. So we suggest following the care instructions here to learn how to take care of your printed garments properly.

Printed apparel can be machine-washed cold, inside-out on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent and like colors. Use non-chlorine bleach only when necessary. You shouldn't use any fabric softeners or dry-clean the items.

DTG-printed apparel can be tumble-dried on a low cycle, but hang-dry works best. When it comes to ironing, use cool iron inside-out. Don't iron the print.

Follow these instructions carefully to avoid fading and cracking of the print, and shrinking the garment that can occur if you wash or dry it on a high setting.
