Orders
Once your order ships you will receive a confirmation email with your tracking number and carrier information. Please allow up to 24 hours for tracking to update after dispatch. If you cannot find your tracking email, check your spam folder or contact us at support@aurumhobby.shop with your order number.
Orders can be cancelled or modified before they ship. Email us as soon as possible at support@aurumhobby.shop with your order number. Once an order has been dispatched it can no longer be changed — our standard Return and Refund Policy will apply at that point.
Full payment is collected when you place your pre-order. Once the item is received at our facility in Springfield, MO it enters our standard fulfillment process — 1–3 business days processing and 3–7 business days domestic shipping. If a supplier changes a release date we will notify you immediately. You may cancel a pre-order for a full refund at any time before it ships.
Check your spam or junk folder first. If you still cannot find it within an hour of placing your order, contact us at support@aurumhobby.shop with the name and email address used at checkout and we will look into it immediately.
Shipping
Orders are processed within 1–3 business days after payment is confirmed. Once shipped, domestic US delivery takes 3–7 business days. International orders typically arrive within 7–21 business days. You will receive a tracking email as soon as your order ships from our Springfield, MO facility.
Yes — we ship to select international destinations. International shipping costs are calculated and displayed at checkout.

We ship using USPS, UPS, and FedEx. The carrier selected for your order depends on your location, package dimensions, and weight to ensure the most reliable and safe delivery of your sealed product.
Contact us within 48 hours of the delivery confirmation at support@aurumhobby.shop with your order number and photos of any damage or the package exterior. We will work with the carrier to investigate and resolve your case as quickly as possible.
Yes. International orders may be subject to customs duties, import taxes, or handling fees charged by your country's customs authority.
