Orders & Shipping

How much is shipping?

Shipping is calculated based on the delivery address and your requested delivery method (i.e., USPS Priority Mail and Next-Day Air Saver).

Do you ship internationally?

We currently only ship within the United States, U.S. Territories, and APO/FPO/DPO, and U.S. PO Boxes.

Do you ship to APO or PO Boxes?

We can ship to APO/FPO/DPO and PO Boxes and locations within the United States and U.S. Territories. 

Do you offer pick-up?

AreYouGame's warehouse is not open to the public, but we can accommodate local (Kansas City, MO) customer pick-ups with orders placed directly through our website.  Please reach out to our Customer Service team prior to processing an order so we can provide you with a promotional code for free shipping.  Without the promotional code you will be subject to shipping fees (non-refundable) and standard shipping delivery times.    

What are the available shipping methods?

We provide you with the best rate through UPS and USPS and offer:

  • UPS Next-Day Air Saver
  • USPS Priority

Rates are calculated based on your delivery address and cannot be modified.  

If I choose to ship to multiple locations, will I be charged extra shipping?

Multiple orders with different delivery addresses will need to be placed as separate orders.  Each order will be charged individually for shipping. 

Rates are calculated based on your delivery address and cannot be modified.  

When can I expect my order to ship?

Orders received Monday through Friday before 12:00 pm (CST) will ship the same day. Orders received after 12:01 pm (CST) will ship by the end of the next business day. Orders received after 12:01 pm (CST) on Friday through Sunday will ship by the end of the day on Monday. Please note that Saturday, Sunday and holidays are not considered business days for order shipping, except from the day after Thanksgiving to December 23rd we have pickups on Saturdays as well.

How long will it take to get my order?

UPS Next-Day Air Saver

  • Orders received by 12 Noon CST Monday – Friday will be shipped the same day**, and you should receive the package the following business day. UPS Next Day Air Saver promises next-day delivery between 3:00 and 4:30 p.m. to commercial addresses, and at the end of the day to residential addresses. 

USPS Priority

  • Orders received by 12 Noon CST Monday - Friday will be shipped the same day**, and USPS states that Priority Mail should be received between 1-3 days. We believe this is in actuality 1-5 days.  

Carrier Delays

  • Our policy is to ship all orders received by 12 Noon CST Monday – Friday to ship the same day**.  Once the carrier has picked up the package, the delivery time may vary due to many reasons – from natural disasters to holiday shipping to employee shortages, we have notice all of the carriers have been struggling to keep up with the demands – so we cannot be responsible for carrier delays once the order has left our warehouse. We can only guarantee when we will ship your order. 
**Please note that Saturday, Sunday and holidays are not considered business days for order shipping.  With the exception: From the day after Thanksgiving to December 23rd, our cut-off time for shipments is for orders received by 4PM.  We will have pickups on Saturdays as well. We will be here on Sundays during those times, but we don’t have carriers picking up the packages until Monday evening. 

Where will my product ship from?

Products ship from our warehouse located at 11201 N Airworld Dr., Kansas City, MO 64153.

How can I track my order?

A tracking number for each order placed will be emailed directly to you.  Most orders should arrive within 5-7 business days.  Orders shipped to AK, HI, U.S. Territories, or APO/FPO/DPO addresses may be subject to additional transit time.  Orders may be subject to additional delays during peak holiday shipping seasons or due to carrier capacity issues.  

What should I do if the tracking number says my package was delivered but I didn't receive it?

Please first check around the general vicinity of your front door, mailbox, garage, side gate, or yard for your package. Many times mail carriers will hide packages out of plain sight to prevent theft. You might also check with your neighbors to ensure the mail carrier did not leave your package with them. If after checking these areas, you do not find your package, please contact us at orders@areyougame.com.

I would like to place a bulk or corporate order, how do I do this?

Please complete this form and we will be happy to assist you with your order.

Returns

What is your return policy?

Products that are unopened or unused (in new, re-sellable condition) may be returned within 30 days of receipt for a full refund minus the cost of shipping.

If your product has been used or opened and there is a defect, missing pieces, or damage, please contact our Customer Service team about resolving your issue.

What is your policy on shipping damage?

Please provide documentation (pictures) to our Customer Service Team at orders@areyougame.com so we can process your damage claim and approve your return, replacement or refund.  We will send you a pre-paid return shipping label so that you can return the damaged item (as either a PDF you can print or we can print it for you.) If you would like us to replace the item, please let us know when you are submitting your documentation. If you are unable to provide pictures, ask us for a pre-paid shipping label and we can process the damage claim when we receive the damaged item back.

I opened the item, played it, and didn't like it. Can I return it?

We strive to provide our customer with the best quality games and if you aren’t satisfied we want to know what we could do to make your experience better. Please contact our Customer Service team at orders@areyougame.com to see how we can improve your gaming experience.

When can I expect my return to be processed?

Return requests will be processed within 48 hours of the request. Once we have received your return, we’ll issue a refund towards the original payment method used on the order for the item that has been returned, depending on the condition of the return, unless you have already contacted customer service for resolution. This normally will take a week to process, but during the holidays it may be longer.  The process time to your original payment method will be dependent on the credit card company.  Please reach out to our Customer Service team prior to returning your item(s).

What is your return policy during the holidays?

During the holiday season, we extend our 30-day return policy to cover purchases that may have been purchased as gifts. Orders placed from November 1st through December 31st may be returned until January 31st.

Will I be charged shipping for my return?

If the product is damaged, defective, or you received the wrong product, AreYouGame.com will provide you with a pre-paid shipping label.  Please contact our Customer Service team before processing any returns.  Returns that are not sent to our Customer Service team will be subject to additional delays. 

What do I do if I receive the wrong product?

If you received the wrong product, please contact our Customer Service team at orders@areyougame.com and provide us with your order number, product you did receive, and the product you should have received. We will work with you directly to resolve the issue and get your gaming experience back on the board.

Can I return a part of a bundled item?

We understand you may discover that someone already has one of the items in the bundle.

Items bundled together received a special discount, and you would lose the discounted price if we need to break the bundle.

If you return one or multiple unopened product(s) in good condition within the return window, we would need to charge you full price for the remaining items, and you would be refunded the difference for the item(s) you returned. 

I have other questions.

Please check out our Return Policy for any additional questions.

We accept all major credit cards and PayPal. At this time we are unable to accept checks, e-currency, or any other forms of payment. e-Gift cards purchased through AreYouGame.com can only be used through our website at the time of purchase.
