Grading Information

There are three grades that we list items by. This grading scale is most commonly applied to our enamel pins, but can also pertain to other merchandise, such as books. Some items we only ever sell as A-Grades, like our acrylic charms.

  • A-Grades are standard grades. At most they will have very, very minor imperfections in the metal or they can have small dust dots.
  • B-Grades can have minor deformations to the metal, small discolorations, and general imperfections such as minor scratching. These issues are never large, and can sometimes resemble normal wear-and-tear. This grade will be denoted in the stock if they are released.
  • C-Grades can either have larger imperfections, such as chips in their enamel and metal, or they have a sizable number of small imperfections as compared to a B-Grade. We don't normally sell these unless there is a specific reason (dice being one exception).

Pricing Information

Pins vary in price based on what metal we use, their size, whether they're hard or soft enamel, and if they have any specialty design elements, such as screen prints or glow-in-the-dark qualities. No pin is exactly the same, but there are some things to expect:

  • Basic hard enamel pins (1.25" - 1.5"): $9 - $11
  • Large hard enamel pins or small specialty pins (1.5" - 2"): $12 - $14
  • Extra large enamel pins or large specialty pins (2"+): $15
  • Defective pins: vary depending on defects/original pricing

Ordering en masse? Feel free to ask us about a group discount. There are also monthly discounts in our newsletter.

Please Note: Prices of old pins increase for every month they are "public". For preorders, prices are discounted 10% off of the normal list price. Afterward, they will be listed at their normal price, and from there will increase over time or will be taken down and sold as con-only pins.

Shipping Information

Non-Preorder Items:

  • Domestic items are shipped first class (with tracking) and are processed within 4 business days of being ordered so long as there are no issues with the order and the shop isn't on a hiatus.
  • International orders go out with the next large shipment (we subsidize costs internationally to offer cheaper rates, but we have to ship in batches as a result). Please check to make sure if our shop is on a hiatus, which delays orders until our return (usually we take a hiatus in between large cons or large releases so we can get enough orders at once to fulfill our quantity requirements with less wait times).
  • Currently we are ARE on a semi-shop hiatus due to the coronavirus situation. We are still keeping the store open, but please allow for a few extra days to get everything processed as we'll only be in-office about 1 or 2 days a week.

Preorder Items:

  • These items ship out 2-3 months after the close of preorders. Generally we aim to be faster than that if possible, but the timeline fluctuates based on when things arrive. Normally we will email once these items have projected final dates. At that time, we will allow for adjustments if anyone needs to change their shipping information.

    If you have any further questions, please email us! Thank you!
