1. When does my order ship?
Shipping timelines are written on the individual product pages, they can be found towards the bottom.
Take note of the Pre Order release month right at the top, followed by the timeline required once released. (Release XX Month to XX Month = anytime between the 1st day of xx month to last day of xx month)
Even if released earlier, assume the full length of pre order "Last day of release month + shipping timeline)
Timelines are for orders placed now, so if ordered earlier - will be shipped earlier.
Order updates will also be posted on the product description so make sure to check back before reaching out to CS
If you purchased multiple items together, there is a chance for them to ship individually or shipped together.

2. Are there any delays in these times? DHL / PANDEMIC DELAY
https://www.facebook.com/thepachstore/posts/1579016715584144
All packages shipped economy were caught in a pandemic delay due to the insufficient amount of flights, lockdowns etc.
We are asking for a updated timeline but have not gotten a response from the postal service.
As per the description please expect 2-3 times the original shipping timeline.
Or as soon as the pandemic tides over, vaccine is found and flights return the timeline will reduce drastically.
3. Why did the timeline on the product page change?
The timeline shifts to a later date for those who purchase later.
If you purchased in May, it would usually show MAY to June. If you purchased in June, by then the timeline would have changed to show June to July etc.
You will receive it per the timeline when you purchased it. Our timelines are accurate. Once it ships you will receive a tracking email.
4. When do we restock?
We only reveal restock dates closer to time -
You can sign up for the mailing list on the main page but usually by the time you receive the email it is sold out,
best to follow the main FB page for updates.
5. How to replace the electronic kit
1) Unscrew all screws on the hilts, unscrew pommel
2) Push recharge port and power button until it clears the hilt from below, pull electronics out from the pommel.
3) Insert new kit, tighten screws
6. How do I use my saber?

7. Why did my tracking say - Return to shipper?
Our packages are combined with others and sent via truck to cross the border to DHL Hong Kong, this usually happens when a package in the truck was rejected and therefore the whole truck has to go back.
Once it is reshipped in the next couple of days your tracking will be updated
8. What happens if my package is lost?
In the unlikely event that your package shows as delivered or has stopped moving for 7 working days, please first begin to contact the Shipping company (National Post or DHL/Fedex) based on the tracking information provided.
File an inquiry with them on why it has not been delivered to you.
After which, reach out to us with your Order Number AND Case ID provided by the shipping company after you have filed the inquiry. We will follow up from there.
Please note that National Posts only allow us to submit a claim after 30-60 working days depending on your country and refunds/replacements can only be processed after a claim has been submitted on our side. (It is possible that the item can still be found and delivered once a investigation begins) After a claim is approved, an automatic email will be sent to you once the refund is processed.
9. What if my package arrived damaged?
If you received a damaged package (dented box) and the product is obviously damaged through shipping please first begin to inform the shipping company (DHL/Fedex etc)
Head to the website and submit a Inquiry, let them know that the package arrived damaged. (Inquiry and not a claim)
Following which in their email response to you, send them the pictures of the damage and ask them for a CASE ID.
After which, please contact us via the Facebook Page Chat with the pictures and Case ID.
Once we have that, we will submit a claim and be able to process a replacement or repair options for you.
