We’ve compiled a list below of frequently asked questions to make it easier for you to find the answers to your questions. If you still need some extra help, please reach out via email animesgalorestore@gmail.com
ORDERS
All new releases are usually preorders. The estimate ship time can be found in the item description and will be updated frequently. The date displayed is an estimate of when the product will be in stock and shipped to you. When we start prepping your order, you will receive an email notification with tracking. The order is not shipped until the tracking updates and shows in transit.
Your order won't be shipped until ALL the items in your order are in stock. If you want us to ship in stock items first, please place orders seperately.
In the case of order cancellation, you must email us within 24 hours of placing the order because we process orders very quickly.
You may request to change your product size, shipping address, or add products to your order. Requests must be made within 24 hours of placing the order.
You may also request to change products if they are the same or higher price. You just have to pay the difference.
In the case of pre-orders, you may cancel anytime as long as the item has not completed production. Production status can be found in the item description.
Please contact our sales team.
Once you place an order, a tracking will be sent to you via email once the order has shipped. You will also receive text message updates.
In the unlikely event that you do not receive your order after the stated delivery date on your tracking, please contact us within 7 days.
Several reasons:
1. Your billing information was incorrect
2. Too many credit card attempts
3. Incorrect CC, zip code, or expiration date
4. The item you bought is no longer available
In any of the cases, Shopify will flag your order as fraudulent and your order will be cancelled. You will have to place your order again.
You might receive an email saying your order has been shipped, but the tracking hasn't moved yet and will say "waiting on package to arrive at facility".
We pre-print all the labels. This just means we have NOT shipped your order yet. Tracking will update once we ship.
This usually occurs when the address is incorrect or a failed delivery attempt. We will contact you with the reason and process a replacement order for you. In the case that you don’t get an email from us, please contact us for an update.
If you don’t respond after 7 days, we will cancel your order and refund you. Shipping cost is non-refundable. It is the customer's responsibility to provide a valid delivery address.
For international orders:
After 30-40 days your package still has not arrived, please contact us so we can file a claim and reship your order/refund you. International orders have limited tracking.

Sometimes shipping couriers deliver to the wrong address like your neighbors and it may be returned to you in 4-5 days. Or in the case that it is lost, sometimes shipping couriers are able to find it and will complete the delivery in 4-5 days.

Product Information
Most of our collections are limited releases so once they sell out, we will not be restocking.
If a product was really popular, we may re-release.
Our embroidery pieces are made of high quality threads that are meant to last a long time. We recommend turning the product inside out, machine washing cold, tumble/delicate drying on low heat. Another option would be to hang dry, which is the best way to prevent shrinkage.
We have always recommended customers to order their standard size and have not had any issues:)
Some embroidery pieces may have a paper on the back. This is referred to as a stabilizer and is an essential in keeping the embroidery from deforming and intact.
You may cut around it so it is more circular, but it is important you don't remove it or cut the embroidery threads.
