Profits & Supporting PaperMC

This store isn't here to make a profit, it's just here so the community can buy official PaperMC gear. If your primary goal is to financially support the project (and you don't care to have merch), consider donating directly through our OpenCollective instead.

Pricing & Transparency

We sell everything at the absolutely minimum price our storefront platform allows. Because of this, you might notice that some of our prices look a little random.

To keep things completely transparent, every item's description lists its base manufacturing cost so you can see the exact markup. On average, this markup is only about $1.50 USD (the platform minimum, which covers variable taxes and fees). Any actual profit that do make their way to us after taxes and fees are treated as direct contributions to our OpenCollective.

 Shipping & VAT

Our items are printed and shipped by different vendors across varying international locations, which means shipping costs and VAT will fluctuate depending on what you buy.

• Check the origin: Always look at the "Ships from:" section of the item description on a product page to get an idea of shipping distances and potential import fees.
  
• Vendor locations: We try our best to select vendors with wide global shipping footprints, but that isn't always possible for every single product.
  
• Global availability: There are no restrictions on who can order what. However, please be aware that shipping costs may be significantly higher if an item's vendor is far from your location. In some cases, we may offer location-specific variations of items when a single vendor can't cover every region efficiently.
