How we handle release day
Pre-orders are charged at checkout and dispatched on the release date in the order they were received, so an early pre-order is the way to secure allocation on a set that sells out. Details are in our shipping policy. Dates are set by The Pokémon Company International and can move; we update this page and email pre-order customers if they do.
