Rip & Ship Policy

CardCore Kai’s Rip & Ship option gives collectors the chance to purchase sealed trading card products and have them opened live on camera. You get to watch the break in real time, choose which cards you would like shipped, and earn 20% store credit toward a future CardCore Kai purchase.

By choosing Rip & Ship, you agree to the terms outlined below.

How Rip & Ship Works

Purchase an eligible box, case, pack, or other sealed product from CardCore Kai.
Choose the Rip & Ship option for your order.
Your product will be opened live on the agreed-upon platform.
Watch your cards being opened in real time.
Let us know whether you would like all cards shipped or only selected cards.
Your selected cards will be securely packaged and shipped to you.
You will receive store credit equal to 20% of the qualifying Rip & Ship purchase, excluding shipping and sales tax, to use toward a future purchase on CardCoreKai.com.

Eligible Products

Rip & Ship is available only on products specifically designated as eligible by CardCore Kai.

Certain product categories are excluded, including:

Singles and graded cards
Toys and collectibles
Trading card supplies
Memorabilia
Any other product that CardCore Kai determines is not eligible for live opening

The availability of the Rip & Ship option on a product page determines whether that item currently qualifies.

Cancellations Before the Live Opening

A Rip & Ship order may be canceled only if CardCore Kai approves the cancellation before the product has been opened.

Once CardCore Kai begins opening the sealed product on the customer's behalf, the transaction becomes final and cannot be canceled, returned, or exchanged based on the contents of the product.

If an order is canceled or refunded before the live opening takes place, no Rip & Ship store credit will be earned or issued.

Live Break Platforms

Rip & Ship breaks may be streamed on:

Instagram Live
YouTube Live
Whatnot

The platform will be determined between CardCore Kai and the customer before the break whenever possible.

Customers are encouraged to follow CardCore Kai on our live platforms so they do not miss their scheduled break.

Once Your Product Is Opened

By choosing Rip & Ship, you authorize CardCore Kai to open your sealed product on your behalf during the live event.

Once a product has been opened, the sale is considered final and the product cannot be returned, exchanged, or canceled based on the cards pulled.

CardCore Kai cannot guarantee the contents, value, rarity, condition, centering, grading potential, or resale value of cards contained inside sealed products. These factors are determined by the manufacturer and the contents of the product itself.

Manufacturer defects, damaged cards, missing cards, or other product issues may be subject to the individual manufacturer’s policies.

Live Stream Interruptions

CardCore Kai will make reasonable efforts to provide a clear live broadcast of each Rip & Ship opening.

Internet outages, platform interruptions, technical problems, or other issues outside our control may occasionally affect a live stream.

If a live broadcast is interrupted, CardCore Kai may continue or resume the opening as appropriate. A technical issue with the live stream does not invalidate the purchase or opening of the product.

Shipping Your Cards

Unless otherwise requested, all cards pulled from your Rip & Ship purchase will be shipped to you.

You may also choose to receive only selected cards, such as:

Hits
Inserts
Parallels
Numbered cards
Autographs
Memorabilia cards
Other cards you specifically request

Please let us know before your order is prepared for shipment if you do not want your base cards shipped.

All shipments are subject to CardCore Kai’s standard shipping rates, processing times, and shipping policies.

Cards You Choose Not to Receive

If you choose not to have certain cards shipped, including base cards, you are voluntarily relinquishing those cards to CardCore Kai.

Whenever possible, cards not selected for shipping may be donated to new or young collectors to help introduce more people to the hobby.

Once you tell us that you do not want those cards shipped and they have been processed for donation or other use, they cannot be reclaimed.

20% Rip & Ship Store Credit

Eligible Rip & Ship purchases earn CardCore Kai store credit equal to 20% of the final purchase price actually paid for the qualifying Rip & Ship product.

If the product price is adjusted through an accepted offer, promotion, or other approved price adjustment, the 20% store credit will be calculated using the final product price paid by the customer.

Store credit is calculated on the eligible product subtotal only and does not include:

Sales tax
Shipping charges
Non-eligible products in the same order
Other applicable fees

For example, if an eligible Rip & Ship product has a listed price of $120 but an accepted offer reduces the final product price to $100, the customer will receive $20 in CardCore Kai store credit.

Store credit:

Is issued after the qualifying Rip & Ship product has been opened
Is added to the customer account associated with the qualifying order
May be used toward a future purchase on CardCoreKai.com
Does not expire
Has no cash value
Cannot be exchanged or redeemed for cash
Is non-transferable
May not be sold or transferred to another customer
Cannot be retroactively applied to a previous purchase

CardCore Kai reserves the right to determine whether store credit may be combined with other promotions, discount codes, offers, or credits.

Store Credit Is Not a Refund

Rip & Ship store credit is promotional store credit toward a future CardCore Kai purchase. It is not a refund, rebate, cash payment, or reduction of the original Rip & Ship purchase price.

The original Rip & Ship transaction remains a completed purchase and is subject to all terms of this policy.

There are also two sections I would add.

Scheduling

Rip & Ship openings may be scheduled based on product availability, staffing, live-event schedules, and the customer’s availability.

CardCore Kai will make reasonable efforts to coordinate the live opening with the customer, but specific dates, times, or platforms cannot always be guaranteed.

Customer Responsibility

Before participating in Rip & Ship, customers are responsible for:

Providing accurate contact and shipping information
Following CardCore Kai on the agreed-upon live platform when applicable
Confirming shipping preferences in a timely manner
Reviewing this Rip & Ship Policy before authorizing the opening

Changes to the Program

CardCore Kai may modify, suspend, or discontinue the Rip & Ship program or its purchase-credit terms at any time.

Any changes will not affect purchase credit already earned under previously completed qualifying Rip & Ship purchases unless otherwise required by law.
