Terms & Conditions 

Effective Date: 11/28/25
Last Updated:04/15/26

 

Welcome to Nerdy Related. These Terms and Conditions (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of our website, your purchase of products from us, your participation in our events, and your interactions with our business, whether online or in-store.

 

By accessing our website, placing an order, making a purchase, or otherwise using our services, you agree to be bound by these Terms and all related policies posted on our website, including our Privacy Policy, Refund Policy, Shipping Policy, Accessibility Statement, and any other store rules or notices. Courts have repeatedly scrutinized online terms for whether notice and assent were reasonably clear, so your website should present these Terms conspicuously at checkout or account creation rather than relying only on a footer link.

 

If you do not agree to these Terms, do not use our website or purchase from Nerdy Related.

 

1. About Nerdy Related

Nerdy Related is a trading card game and collectible retail business offering products that may include sealed trading card products, single cards, gaming accessories, collectibles, apparel, event entry, preorder items, and other related merchandise.

 

2. Eligibility to Use the Website

By using this website, you represent that you are at least the age of majority in your state or province of residence, or that you are using the site under the supervision of a parent or legal guardian.

You agree to use this website only for lawful purposes and in accordance with these Terms.

 

3. Product Availability and Inventory

All products are subject to availability. We reserve the right to limit quantities, restrict sales, cancel orders, or discontinue products at any time and for any reason, including but not limited to:

  • Limited inventory

  • Allocation changes

  • Distributor shortages

  • Manufacturer supply issues

  • Pricing or listing errors

  • Suspected fraud or abuse

  • Reseller activity

  • Safety or policy concerns

 

We do not guarantee that any item will be in stock, restocked, or continuously available.

 

4. Pricing and Listing Errors

We make every effort to ensure that product descriptions, pricing, and inventory information are accurate. However, errors may occur. Nerdy Related reserves the right to correct any error, inaccuracy, or omission at any time, including after an order has been placed.

If an order is canceled due to a pricing, inventory, or listing error, any approved refund will be issued to the original payment method.

 

5. Orders and Acceptance

Submission of an order does not guarantee acceptance. Nerdy Related reserves the right to refuse, cancel, or limit any order at its sole discretion, including after an order confirmation email has been sent.

We may refuse or cancel orders for reasons including:

  • Product unavailability

  • Payment authorization failure

  • Billing or shipping information issues

  • Duplicate orders

  • Suspected fraud

  • Violations of store policy

  • Purchase quantity limits

  • Obvious pricing or content errors

 

6. Payment Terms

Payment must be received and successfully processed before an order is fulfilled unless otherwise expressly stated. By submitting payment information, you represent that you are authorized to use the selected payment method.

We reserve the right to delay shipment or cancel an order pending payment verification or fraud review.

 

7. All Sales Final

All sales are final. Nerdy Related does not offer returns, refunds, or exchanges on any merchandise unless otherwise required by applicable law.

This policy applies to all merchandise, including but not limited to:

  • Sealed trading card products

  • Opened trading card products

  • Booster packs, boxes, bundles, tins, and decks

  • Singles

  • Accessories

  • Collectibles

  • Apparel

  • Event-related merchandise

  • Preorders

  • Special orders

 

Because TCG and collectible products are sensitive to tampering, condition disputes, market volatility, and allocation constraints, we maintain a strict no return, no refund, and no exchange policy.

 

8. Preorders and Special Orders

Preorders, reservation products, and special orders are final and may not be canceled, returned, refunded, or exchanged unless required by law.

Preorder release dates, ship dates, allocation amounts, and product availability are estimates only and may change due to manufacturer delays, distributor decisions, or allocation reductions.

If Nerdy Related cannot fulfill a preorder because inventory was not received or was materially reduced, we may cancel the affected item or order and issue an appropriate refund for the unfulfilled merchandise.

 

9. Shipping Terms

We aim to process and ship orders within the timeframe stated on our website, at checkout, or in product listings. Any shipping or delivery date is an estimate unless expressly guaranteed. Under the FTC’s Mail, Internet, or Telephone Order Merchandise Rule, sellers must have a reasonable basis for advertised shipment timing and, if no time is stated, generally must ship within 30 days or obtain the buyer’s consent to a delay or refund the unshipped merchandise.

Once an order has been transferred to the shipping carrier, risk of loss and responsibility for transit issues pass to the customer to the fullest extent permitted by law.

Nerdy Related is not responsible for carrier delays, lost packages, stolen packages, delivery exceptions, or misdeliveries occurring after carrier acceptance, except where required by law.

Customers are responsible for providing accurate shipping information. If a shipment is returned due to an incorrect address, failed delivery attempt, refusal, or non-collection, the customer is responsible for any additional shipping costs.

 

10. In-Store Pickup and Local Pickup

If local pickup is offered, customers must pick up orders within the timeframe communicated by Nerdy Related. We reserve the right to cancel pickup orders, restock items, or apply store credit or other resolution at our discretion if an order is not collected within the stated pickup window.

Valid identification and proof of purchase may be required for pickup.

 

11. Condition of Products

Due to the nature of collectibles and TCG merchandise:

  • Packaging condition may vary

  • Manufacturer sealing, collation, print quality, and packaging consistency are not guaranteed

  • Minor cosmetic imperfections in external packaging may occur

  • We do not guarantee specific pulls, rarity distribution, centering, grading outcomes, or investment value

All collectible products are sold as retail merchandise, not as guaranteed investment assets.

 

12. Manufacturer Issues

Nerdy Related is not responsible for manufacturer defects, collation errors, misprints, print lines, factory damage, packaging inconsistencies, or missing components in sealed products. Such issues must generally be addressed with the manufacturer or publisher where applicable.

13. Event Participation

Participation in any in-store or online event, tournament, league, or promotion hosted by Nerdy Related is subject to additional event rules, conduct expectations, age requirements, capacity limits, and organizer discretion.

We reserve the right to:

  • Refuse entry

  • Remove participants

  • Modify pairings, prizing, structure, start times, or event format

  • Cancel or reschedule events

  • Enforce code-of-conduct standards

Unsportsmanlike conduct, cheating, harassment, abusive behavior, theft, hygiene issues creating disruption, or violation of event rules may result in removal without refund.

14. Promotions, Giveaways, and Discounts

Any promotion, giveaway, coupon, discount, or limited-time offer may be modified, suspended, or canceled at any time unless prohibited by law.

Promotions:

  • May not be combined unless expressly stated

  • May exclude certain brands, sealed product, preorder items, event entry, or limited releases

  • Have no cash value unless required by law

  • May be revoked in cases of abuse, fraud, or error

15. User Accounts and Site Access

If account creation is offered, you are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and restricting access to your device or account.

You agree that you are responsible for all activity occurring under your account and that you will immediately notify us of any unauthorized use.

We reserve the right to suspend, terminate, or restrict access to accounts or site features at our discretion.

16. Prohibited Conduct

You agree not to:

  • Use the website for unlawful or fraudulent purposes

  • Attempt to interfere with site operation or security

  • Scrape, copy, exploit, or misuse site content without permission

  • Use bots or automated tools to bypass limits or gain unfair access to products

  • Submit false information

  • Impersonate another person or entity

  • Attempt chargeback abuse or payment fraud

  • Harass, threaten, or abuse staff or other customers

17. Intellectual Property

All website content, including but not limited to text, logos, graphics, branding, product photography, layout, design elements, and original content created by Nerdy Related, is owned by Nerdy Related or used with permission and is protected by applicable intellectual property laws.

You may not reproduce, distribute, modify, republish, display, or exploit any content from this site without prior written permission, except for ordinary personal, non-commercial use of the website.

18. Reviews, Feedback, and User Submissions

If you submit reviews, comments, suggestions, ideas, photos, testimonials, or other content to Nerdy Related, you grant us a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide license to use, reproduce, publish, display, and share that content in connection with our business, subject to applicable law.

You represent that any content you submit is accurate, lawful, and does not violate the rights of any third party.

Nerdy Related may remove user submissions that are unlawful, abusive, fraudulent, obscene, misleading, infringing, or otherwise inappropriate. However, these Terms do not prohibit or penalize honest customer reviews. The FTC states that the Consumer Review Fairness Act makes it illegal for businesses to use standardized terms that threaten or penalize people for posting honest reviews.

19. Privacy

Your use of our website is also governed by our Privacy Policy, which explains how we collect, use, and disclose information. California requires operators of commercial websites that collect personally identifiable information from California consumers to post a conspicuous privacy policy.

20. Accessibility

Nerdy Related is committed to improving website accessibility and usability. Please review our Accessibility Statement for information about accessibility features, limitations, and how to contact us if you encounter barriers.

21. Disclaimer of Warranties

To the fullest extent permitted by law, all products, services, website content, and materials are provided on an as is and as available basis without warranties of any kind, express or implied, except where such warranties cannot be disclaimed by law.

We do not warrant that:

  • The website will be uninterrupted or error-free

  • Product descriptions or listings will always be complete or current

  • The site will be free of viruses or harmful code

  • Any product will meet speculative, collectible, or resale expectations

22. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Nerdy Related and its owners, officers, employees, affiliates, agents, and service providers shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, special, exemplary, or punitive damages arising out of or related to:

  • Website use or inability to use the website

  • Product purchases

  • Product defects attributable to manufacturers

  • Lost profits or lost business opportunities

  • Shipping delays or carrier issues

  • Event cancellations or schedule changes

  • Data loss

  • Technical errors

  • Third-party services or platforms

To the fullest extent permitted by law, our total liability for any claim relating to a product or order shall not exceed the amount actually paid by the customer for the specific product or order at issue.

23. Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Nerdy Related and its owners, staff, affiliates, and service providers from and against claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses arising out of:

  • Your breach of these Terms

  • Your misuse of the website

  • Your violation of applicable law

  • Your infringement of any third-party rights

  • Your conduct at a Nerdy Related event or in-store location

24. Third-Party Services and Links

Our website may use or link to third-party services, including payment processors, social media platforms, shipping carriers, email or SMS providers, analytics tools, or embedded content. We are not responsible for the content, availability, or practices of those third parties.

Your use of third-party services may be governed by their own terms and privacy policies.

25. SMS, Email, and Marketing Communications

If you opt in to receive marketing emails or text messages from Nerdy Related, you consent to receive promotional communications subject to applicable law and our posted disclosures.

You may opt out at any time using the unsubscribe link in emails, by replying STOP to text messages where applicable, or by contacting us.

If you ever offer automatic renewal memberships, subscriptions, or recurring paid plans, California’s automatic renewal law imposes specific disclosure, consent, and cancellation rules that should be addressed in separate subscription terms rather than assumed by this general terms page.

26. No Waiver

Our failure to enforce any provision of these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of that provision or any other right.

27. Severability

If any provision of these Terms is found to be unlawful, void, or unenforceable, that provision shall be deemed severed and the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect to the fullest extent permitted by law.

28. Governing Law

These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California, without regard to conflict of law principles.

29. Dispute Resolution

Any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms, your use of the website, or any purchase from Nerdy Related shall be resolved in the appropriate state or federal courts located in California, unless otherwise required by applicable law.

If you want to add arbitration or a class-action waiver, that should be drafted carefully and presented conspicuously. Recent cases continue to focus heavily on whether users had reasonably conspicuous notice and clearly manifested assent to online terms.

30. Changes to These Terms

We reserve the right to update, modify, or replace these Terms at any time by posting revised Terms on our website. The updated version will be effective as of the posted “Last Updated” date unless otherwise stated.

Your continued use of the website or continued purchases after updated Terms are posted constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms, to the extent permitted by law.
