I am at work 8.5 hours a day, five days a week, with my days off being Monday and Tuesday, and am frequently working mandatory overtime. I may take a little bit longer to respond and send things out.

I have difficulties responding to DMs sometimes. I am not ignoring or avoiding you if it takes me a while to respond.

Stamped mail PCs are sent in a penny sleeve + toploader taped to a greeting card.

Tracked mail PCs are sent in a penny sleeve + toploader taped to cardboard in a bubble mailer.

Albums are sent via media mail (unless signed, where priority is available) and packaging will vary depending on size but will either be in a box or wrapped in bubble wrap in a polybag mailer.

I reuse packaging sometimes (cards, boxes, mailers, penny sleeves, etc.) and I buy used/reuse toploaders. I do not make packaging exceptions if this bothers you.

Mail out proof is usually individual, but if I have more than five outgoing items, it will be in a story update with usernames on the envelope. It's up to you to inform me if you do not want your username on the envelope. (I am alright with mine being on there.)

Please don't comment on my posts (unless otherwise stated) unless there is a problem with DMs and you are unable to or it is reasonable to assume that I may have missed yours. I will delete unsolicited comments.

I no longer do business with private or personal accounts. Full stop. Unless I know you personally, I will ignore and delete messages/comments from personal or privated accounts.

I do have a cat! She does not tend to come into the room very often but I do not control the Jelly Bean. If you are allergic to cats please let me know and I will try to make sure she does not come near anything!

Please do not put my real name on anything other than for addressing the envelope.

My templates are completely free to use, and will remain so, but I ask that you please do not crop, edit, or otherwise modify or copy them in any way. You are welcome to use the pictures to make your own templates, from scratch, but do not edit mine.

I do not take template requests. Any DMs or comments asking if I will make a certain template will be ignored and deleted, and I will block you if they are persistant.

US/Canada only (may trade WW for certain prios)

Proofs are required! If you have less than 15 proofs, I will ask you to send first.

Will do trades with stamped for stamped or tracked for tracked.

If you are sending through a personal mailbox I will ask you to send first.

Please be specific about what you are interested in and what you are offering. I am not likely to respond to messages that just say "I'm interested in trading for this card and have something on your wishlist" without specifying. I know with DM requests changing it's hard, but a description of what you're offering would be nice.

I will always send video of the item with my username to show the condition and I expect the same.

Please provide packing proof and proof of sending. I will do the same.

Please send a 🦇 emoji when DMing me to know you've read this!

I accept paypal only! Please send through F&F or if sending through G&S, cover the fee. There is a handy fee calculator here. Stamped shipping is not available paying through G&S.

If you pay through G&S without covering I will refund your payment (minus the fee) and ask you to send again.

All my prices are in USD.

USA stamped - >1 ounce $1 (<1 ounce +$0.24) / USA tracked - $5 / WW stamped - $2 / WW tracked - usually starts at $16

No holds / returns / payment plans unless otherwise stated. Please be firm when offering!

Please do not put anything in the notes when paying and just send a screenshot.

I expect payment within 24 hours. If not, the item will go back up for sale.

Please be specific when DMing what you're interested in. Either by sending me the post or using a basic description. I'm unlikely to respond to DM invites that just say "I want to buy something off your page" and nothing else.

I will send video proof with my username to show the condition of the item before accepting payment unless otherwise stated in a post.

Please send a 🥀 emoji when DMing me to know you've read this!

NO BACKOUTS!! If you have extenuating circumstances, please find someone else to take your place.

I accept PayPal only!

I do not allow minors to join my GOs.

All of my GOs are 2 payments (initial + ems/dom) unless otherwise stated.

Initial payments must be paid on time or it will incur a late fee of $1 for every 24 hours late, up to a maximum of five days after the deadline. After five days have elapsed, your claim will be forfeit.

You are expected to pay DOM on time. If you do not pay DOM fees by the deadline, your item(s) will be forfeit without refund and go up for reclaim. I will not hold onto items indefinitely.

Extensions can be made, but only before a payment deadline has passed. Asking for an extension after the deadline has passed is not allowed.

Group orders subject to sorting (such as for inclusions, lucky draws, or cases in which sets are not filled or otherwise uneven) will be determined by the timestamp of forms received.

Please be patient! I ship to a proxy service, which means sometimes it can take a bit longer for items to arrive. Understand that GOs can take a while and are subject to the speed of merchants and postal service. I would rather you not ask for updates; if there are any, I will give them as they come.

General GO rules also still apply. (The only non-applicable is you do not have to find replacements for claims.)

You are not required to join for everything, however, you must let me know before the event period ends (this will be stated when I open) if you are editing your claim. If you do not tell me ahead of time that you are not taking a certain claim, you will be expected to take that claim and, in this instance, will need to find a replacement if you do not want that claim.

Failure to pay on time three times during the comeback period will have your claim slot dropped. You will not lose your previous claims, but you will be removed from the fixed slot group chat.

I expect you to join a good portion of the events that I open for. If you don't take claims consistently, I may ask you to drop your slot entirely.

If you would like to drop your slot at any time, please let me know. You do not have to find a replacement.

I prioritize offline events. I will do my best to at least open for all offline events, including cafes, in-person lucky draws, pop-up stores, etc.

I will frequently raffle off winner benefits, such as fancalls, fansign albums, and polaroids. This is because I want other fans to be able to get a chance and not to hog everything for myself. (Also, I don't have enough shelf space for that many fansign albums.) Please do not abuse this generosity.

All joiners are automatically entered for raffles an equal number of times as your claims across the event. As in, if you have three claims total, your name will be put in three times, even if one or two of your claims are not in for the specific thing being raffled. I.e. I am raffling a group call, and you have a claim in that, but also two other claims in a set for a 1:1 and offline event, you would still be placed into the draw three times. If you would like to opt out, please say so.

If there are multiple draws, fancall winners will be drawn first to ensure I am able to place the order on time, as I will be placing the order under your name. Please be prepared to send me your info promptly to ensure you are entered. Failure to respond will remove you from the draw and the winner will be drawn again.

Fancall info you will need to be comfortable with providing me: legal name (first and last name that is on your government issued ID), mobile phone number, messenger app handle (KakaoTalk, LINE, WeChat), birthday, nationality

I will NOT keep this info. After the order is placed, unsend your message.

You will of course also be receiving the album that is made out to you from winning.

Sometimes, in the case of 1:1 calls, there are polaroids that are given to fancall winners that are pick-a-pose for the member that you applied for. If that is the case, you will also be receiving that polaroid.

Fansign album info I will need includes the name you would like on the album, as well as what question you would like to ask each of the members. You do not have to send these in Korean, my proxy and I will translate the questions for you. Please be prompt when deciding your questions so as to give my proxy time to prepare before the event.

Some restrictions may be in place for the questions. I will let you know what they are in the event there are any. Most commonly, they will restrict questions asking idols to draw something, or limit questions to just multiple choice.

Please be aware that sometimes event hosts do not allow the names to be changed on in-person fansign albums in the event of a proxy going, so it may not be made out to you, but you will get to decide the questions in the album.
