& Returns.

What it costs to get merch to you, how long it takes, and how to send something back. Plus the one thing most stores never tell you: what a return does to giveaway entries you already earned.

EFFECTIVE 15 October 2026 30-DAY RETURNS US SHIPPING ONLY SUPPORT@2SG.US

Under review

This policy is published in full and written to be relied on, but it is with a promotions attorney for review and may change before the giveaway opens. Wording may be corrected, clarified, or tightened; a few details — the sponsor’s legal name, the business address, shipping rates and the effective date — are still being finalised and appear as marked blanks.

Shipping details and this policy can change without notice. The version in force on the day you place your order is the one that governs that order, so a later change never reaches back and alters an order you have already paid for. Questions: support@2sg.us.

A refund reverses the giveaway entries that order earned — even entries you have already allocated to a live contest. Buying merch, banking the entries and sending the goods back is not a way to get free odds.

The short version.

  • 30 days to change your mindUnworn, unwashed, in the condition it arrived. You pay return postage.
  • Faulty or wrong is on usWe replace it or refund it in full, and refund what you paid to post it back.
  • US shipping only for nowThe giveaway is US-only, so the store is too until that changes.
  • Returns reverse entriesThe full amount the returned item earned, whether or not those entries are already in a contest.
  • No restocking feeEver. If we take the return, you get the item price back in full.

Nothing here affects your rights under the law of your state.

§ 01Who you are buying from

The store at 2sg.us is operated by 2nd String Gaming, LLC (“2SG”, “we”, “us”), at [Mailing Address TBD]. Checkout and payment are handled by Shopify. We never receive or store your full card number. The company is in formation and will be registered before the giveaway opens; until then the business is operated by its founder under the same name.

This policy is part of the Terms of Use. Where a giveaway is involved, the Official Rules govern anything they cover.

Plain speak

Merch is print-on-demand through a manufacturer, so it does not ship from us and we cannot pull an order back once it is in production. If you need to change an address, email us the moment you notice — sometimes we can catch it, and we will tell you straight away if we cannot.

Risk passes to you on delivery. Title passes when the order has been paid in full. Delivery estimates are estimates; once a package leaves, its timing is the carrier’s.

If a package is lost or arrives damaged, tell us within 30 days of the dispatch date and we will replace it or refund it. We handle the carrier claim, not you.

§ 03Returns and exchanges

Changed your mind

You have 30 days from delivery to return an item for a refund of the item price. It has to come back unworn, unwashed, and in the condition it arrived, with any tags still on it. You pay return postage, and we recommend a tracked service, because we can only refund what reaches us.

Original outbound shipping is not refunded on a change-of-mind return. There is no restocking fee.

Faulty, damaged, or not what you ordered

That one is ours. Email support@2sg.us within 30 days of delivery with a photo and your order number. We send a replacement, or refund you in full if we cannot replace it. You do not have to prove anything beyond showing us the item.

We do not issue prepaid return labels. You post the item back and we refund your postage along with the refund itself, so a fault never leaves you out of pocket — keep the receipt and send us the amount.

Exchanges

We do not swap items directly. Return the one you have and place a new order — it is faster, and it means you are not waiting on stock we may not have.

What cannot come back

  • Anything worn, washed, altered, or damaged after delivery.
  • Items returned more than 30 days after delivery.
  • Digital items and gift cards.
  • Anything won as a giveaway prize — prizes are not transferable and carry no cash equivalent. See Official Rules §07.

§ 04What a return does to giveaway entries

Read this part before you return something

A refund reverses the entries the returned items earned, in full. Each item carries a fixed entry amount, so returning it takes back exactly that amount — whether or not you have already added those entries to a live contest, and whether or not the draw is close.

If reversing them takes your allocated total below zero, the shortfall comes out of your entry bank first, and then out of your allocation to the current contest. You will be emailed when it happens, with the arithmetic.

This is the same rule as a chargeback, and it exists for one reason: without it, buying merch, banking the entries and returning the goods would be a way to improve your odds for free. That would make the free mail-in path worth less than a paid one, and the whole contest is built on those two being equal.

Entries already consumed in a completed draw cannot be reversed. If you return an order after a draw the entries took part in, the refund still goes through — the entries simply no longer exist to take back. Deliberately abusing that is a breach of the Official Rules §13 and can cost you your account.

§ 05How to start a return

  1. Email support@2sg.us with your order number and what is wrong. One line is enough.
  2. We reply with a return address. There is no prepaid label — you buy the postage.
  3. Send it back. Keep your tracking number, and the postage receipt if the item was faulty.
  4. We refund to the original payment method within five business days of the item reaching us, and email you when it is done. Your bank may take a few days longer to show it.

No forms, no account required, no phone tree. A person reads every one of these.

§ 06Changes to this policy

We may update this policy at any time and without notice. Rates, carriers and dispatch windows in particular move with our supplier, and we will not always announce it.

What does not change is which version applies to you: the version in force on the day you place your order governs that order. A later change never reaches back and alters an order you have already paid for. We keep the previous versions.

Nothing in this policy limits any right you have under the law of your state that cannot be limited by agreement.

Questions about an order, a return, or what a return did to your entries: support@2sg.us.
