Shipping Rates


To see the exact rates on particular item(s), please visit the checkout page and advance to the Shipping Methods section. Shipping rates depend on two factors: what you are buying and where you are having it shipped. We are located in Santa Clara, California so some shipping methods will cost more the further the destination is from us.

Our Packaging


Most singles orders are packaged with a protective top loader and shipped in a bubble mailer. For singles orders exceeding 500 cards, we may use cardboard boxes to help protect cards during transit. At Channel Fireball, we take pride in how our packages are shipped and try to minimize the chance of damage. We welcome feedback on ways to improve our packaging. 

 

For International Customers


Many packages including standard mail shipments to various countries are being assessed destination duties and taxes by local authorities. Due to this, carriers are facing increasing backlogs leading to greater risk of lost, undelivered and delayed packages. To improve the shipping experience for our international customers, we are offering only trackable service to the countries where this issue is most prevalent.

For those customers who can select first class international shipping, please keep in mind that this service is untracked. For this reason, Channel Fireball can bare no responsibility for lost packages and will not be able to provide a replacement or refund for any product lost in transit. We highly recommend communication with your local post office to ensure prompt delivery of your package. For those customers who would prefer a more secure method of shipment, we do offer several trackable services both through the post office (Express Mail) and UPS (Worldwide Expedited and Express).  

 

Signature Confirmation on UPS Shipments


In order to ensure the secure delivery of UPS packages, we require signature confirmation on all UPS shipments above $200.00. If you would not like to require a signature on your UPS shipment, please write "No Signature Required" in your order comments. Please note that we reserve the right to require a signature in all circumstances, but we will try to accomodate customer requests whenever possible.
