Last updated: 25 August 2026
Welcome to Pacific TCG Store.
These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of pacifictcgstore.com and any purchases made from Pacific TCG Store ("Pacific TCG Store", "we", "us" or "our").
Pacific TCG Store is an Australian online trading card store offering products including Pokémon, One Piece, Dragon Ball, Weiss Schwarz, Japanese trading cards, booster boxes, booster packs, special sets, graded cards, accessories and other TCG collectibles.
By accessing our website, creating an account or placing an order with Pacific TCG Store, you agree to these Terms together with our Privacy Policy, Refund Policy and Shipping Policy.
Nothing in these Terms is intended to exclude, restrict or modify any rights you have under the Australian Consumer Law or any other rights that cannot lawfully be excluded.
1. Using Pacific TCG Store
You may use Pacific TCG Store for lawful purposes only.
You must not:
- Use our website for any illegal or unauthorised purpose
- Attempt to gain unauthorised access to our website, systems or customer accounts
- Introduce viruses, malware or other harmful code
- Interfere with the operation or security of our website
- Scrape, copy or reproduce substantial parts of the website without permission
- Use false or misleading information when placing an order
- Use our website in a way that infringes the rights of Pacific TCG Store or another person
We may restrict or terminate access to our website where we reasonably believe these Terms have been breached or our website is being misused.
2. Our Online Store
Pacific TCG Store is powered by Shopify, which provides the ecommerce platform used to operate our online store.
Products displayed on our website may include:
- Japanese Pokémon booster boxes and booster packs
- One Piece Card Game products
- Dragon Ball trading card products
- Weiss Schwarz products
- Simplified Chinese Pokémon products
- Special sets and promotional products
- PSA and other professionally graded trading cards

Product availability may change without notice.
3. Product Information
We aim to provide accurate product descriptions, photographs, pricing, release information and availability.
However, trading card products can vary between regions, print runs and manufacturers.
Product images may sometimes be illustrative, particularly for products that have not yet been officially released.
Colours and packaging may also appear slightly different depending on your screen, device or subsequent manufacturer changes.
If a material error is identified in a product listing after you place an order, we may contact you to discuss the available options, including correction or cancellation where appropriate.
Nothing in this section limits your rights under the Australian Consumer Law.
4. Trading Card Product Variations
Trading cards and sealed TCG products are collectible products and can be subject to normal manufacturing variations.
Depending on the product, these may include minor variations in:
- Shrink wrap
- Packaging
- Box condition
- Print alignment
- Card centring
- Surface condition
- Factory seals
- Promotional materials
- Included inserts
Where we sell an item as new or sealed, we will make reasonable efforts to supply it in the condition described.
Minor packaging imperfections that do not affect the product itself may occur during manufacturing, distribution or transportation.
This does not affect any rights you may have where a product fails to meet the consumer guarantees under Australian Consumer Law.
5. Randomised Trading Card Products and Pull Rates
Booster boxes, booster packs and many other trading card products contain randomised cards.
Unless we expressly state otherwise in a product listing, Pacific TCG Store does not guarantee:
- A particular card
- A particular rarity
- A specific pull rate
- A secret rare or alternate art card
- A particular card value
- A particular number of "hits"
- A financial return from opening a product
Card distribution and pull rates are determined by the relevant manufacturer.
Opening a trading card product involves accepting the randomised nature of the product.
6. Graded Cards and Card Condition
Where Pacific TCG Store sells professionally graded cards, the grade shown is the grade assigned by the relevant grading company, such as PSA or another third-party grading service.
Pacific TCG Store does not independently guarantee that:
- Another grading company would assign the same grade
- The same card would receive the same grade if resubmitted
- A graded card will increase or maintain its value
- A grading company's standards will remain unchanged
For ungraded or raw cards, any condition description provided represents our reasonable assessment of the card at the time it is listed.
Condition assessments can involve some subjectivity.
7. Prices and Currency
Unless otherwise stated, prices displayed on Pacific TCG Store are in Australian dollars (AUD).
Prices may change from time to time due to factors including:
- Supplier pricing
- Exchange rates
- Product availability
- Market conditions
- Manufacturer pricing
- Promotional offers
A change to the listed price of an item will not ordinarily affect an order that has already been accepted and paid for, except where there has been an obvious pricing error or as otherwise permitted by law.
Shipping charges, where applicable, are calculated or displayed at checkout.
8. Orders and Order Acceptance
Submitting an order through Pacific TCG Store is an offer to purchase the products in your order.
You will normally receive an automated confirmation after placing your order.
We may need to cancel or decline an order in circumstances including:
- The product is unavailable
- There has been an obvious pricing or listing error
- Payment cannot be authorised
- We reasonably suspect fraud or unauthorised payment activity
- Incorrect customer information has been supplied
- An order breaches a published purchase limit
- We reasonably believe an order has been placed in breach of these Terms
If we cancel an order after payment has been received, we will provide a refund for the cancelled amount unless another arrangement has been agreed with you.
9. Purchase Limits and High-Demand Releases
Certain Pokémon, One Piece or other high-demand TCG releases may have customer purchase limits.
Where a limit applies, it may be stated on the relevant product page or promotion.
We may cancel quantities exceeding a stated purchase limit, including where multiple orders reasonably appear to have been placed by the same customer, household or payment method for the purpose of circumventing a limit.
Any refund required following such a cancellation will be processed in accordance with our applicable policies and Australian Consumer Law.
10. Pre-Orders
Pacific TCG Store may offer pre-orders for upcoming trading card products and releases.
A pre-order allows you to order a product before it is available for immediate dispatch.
Release dates and estimated arrival dates for pre-order products are based on information available from manufacturers, distributors and suppliers.
These dates are estimates and may change due to matters outside our reasonable control, including:
- Manufacturer delays
- Distributor delays
- International freight delays
- Customs processing
- Allocation changes
- Changes to official release dates
We will make reasonable efforts to keep customers informed of significant changes affecting pre-orders.
Cancellation and refund arrangements for pre-orders are governed by our Refund Policy, subject always to your rights under Australian Consumer Law.
Before purchasing a pre-order item, please check the product description and estimated release information carefully.
11. Orders Containing Pre-Order and In-Stock Products
If an order contains both pre-order and in-stock products, dispatch timing may depend on the shipping option and fulfilment arrangements available at the time of purchase.
Unless otherwise specified, an order may be held until all products are available for dispatch.
Customers who require in-stock products immediately should consider placing them in a separate order from pre-order products.
12. Payment
Payment must be completed using one of the payment methods available at checkout.
Payments may be processed through Shopify and third-party payment providers.
You agree to provide accurate and authorised payment information.
By submitting payment information, you confirm that you are authorised to use the selected payment method.
Pacific TCG Store does not independently store complete credit card information where payment information is processed by Shopify or another payment provider.
13. Shipping and Delivery
Orders are shipped in accordance with our Shipping Policy.
Pacific TCG Store currently offers domestic shipping through Australia Post and may offer international delivery to selected destinations.
Shipping charges may vary according to factors including:
- Order value
- Package weight
- Delivery destination
- Shipping method
- Product dimensions
Estimated delivery timeframes are estimates only.
Once an order has been transferred to a shipping provider, delivery timeframes can be affected by events outside our reasonable control.
Where tracking is available, tracking information will generally be supplied after dispatch.
Please ensure your shipping information is complete and accurate before submitting an order.
14. Local Pickup
Where local pickup is offered, customers will be notified when their order is ready for collection.
Please do not attend the pickup location before receiving confirmation that your order is ready.
Collection requirements and available collection times may change.
15. Returns, Refunds and Exchanges
Returns, refunds and exchanges are handled in accordance with our Refund Policy and Australian Consumer Law.
Our goods come with consumer guarantees that cannot be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law.
Depending on the circumstances, you may be entitled to a repair, replacement, refund or other remedy where a product does not meet an applicable consumer guarantee.
Any voluntary change-of-mind return policy we offer operates in addition to, and does not replace, your statutory consumer rights.
Please review our Refund Policy for information about:
- Change-of-mind returns
- Damaged products
- Incorrect products
- Defective products
- Pre-order cancellations
- Return procedures
- Refund processing
16. Damaged Deliveries
We take reasonable care when packaging trading card products for delivery.
If your order arrives damaged, defective or incorrect, please contact Pacific TCG Store as soon as reasonably possible and provide:
- Your order number
- Details of the issue
- Photographs of the product
- Photographs of the packaging where relevant
This information helps us assess the issue and determine an appropriate solution.
Any timeframe we request for reporting an issue does not remove rights that you may otherwise have under Australian Consumer Law.
17. Change of Mind
Australian Consumer Law does not generally require a retailer to provide a refund simply because a customer:
- Changed their mind
- No longer wants the product
- Found the product cheaper elsewhere
- Ordered the wrong product
Pacific TCG Store may nevertheless offer change-of-mind returns in accordance with our Refund Policy.
Where we voluntarily accept a change-of-mind return, conditions may apply regarding product condition, packaging, shipping costs and return approval.
18. Authenticity of Products
Pacific TCG Store takes product authenticity seriously.
We source products through suppliers and distribution channels that we consider appropriate for authentic TCG products.
Unless specifically stated otherwise, products sold as genuine Pokémon, One Piece, Dragon Ball, Weiss Schwarz or other officially licensed TCG products are represented as authentic products.
If you believe there is an authenticity issue with a product received from us, please contact us promptly so we can investigate.
19. Product Value and Collectible Markets
Trading cards and sealed products can increase or decrease in market value.
Prices for collectibles may fluctuate significantly after purchase.
Pacific TCG Store does not provide financial or investment advice and does not guarantee that:
- A product will maintain its value
- A product will increase in value
- Market prices will remain stable
- A product purchased from us can later be resold for a particular amount
A subsequent change in secondary-market value does not by itself mean that a product was incorrectly priced when purchased.
20. Promotions, Discount Codes and Giveaways
From time to time Pacific TCG Store may offer:
- Discount codes
- Sales
- Promotional offers
- Competitions
- Giveaways
Additional terms may apply to an individual promotion.
