Where to Buy Gundam Card Game in Ireland
The newly launched Gundam Card Game from Bandai, shipped from our UK warehouse to Ireland with tracked UPS delivery, quoted per order.
Quick Answer
Ireland has a sizeable Gundam fanbase from the mecha/anime community but virtually no dedicated card game retailer for this brand-new Bandai TCG. Irish collectors importing Gundam sealed currently have three options: Cardmarket sellers (slow), Amazon listings (variable quality and stock), or direct from a UK shop. Packrat is the tracked-shipping option with proper packaging for thin Gundam boxes.
Why Irish Gundam players come out ahead
- Tracked UPS delivery, quoted per order. Gundam orders to Ireland ship with UPS Standard. Ask for a UPS delivery quote from your cart and we email the price within 2 working days; you then pay for your goods and delivery together by card.
- Launch-window availability. European Gundam Card Game allocations are tight. We received launch stock and hold it for international dispatch.
- No Irish Gundam TCG shop. There is essentially zero dedicated Gundam Card Game retail presence in Ireland, meaning tracked UK shipping is the only consistent option.
- Protective packaging. Gundam sealed is thinner than most TCGs and easily dented on the way. We pack every order ourselves and use rigid cardboard outer boxes for every international shipment.
Shipping Gundam Card Game to Ireland
How Europe shipping works
Every international order leaves our UK warehouse with UPS, using UPS Standard wherever it is available for your country, and is tracked from the moment we ship until it is delivered. We send from our own fulfilment desk, not a third-party drop-ship service, so stock is accurate and dispatch is 1-2 business days.
Delivery to Ireland is quoted per order rather than priced at checkout. Request a UPS delivery quote from your cart (a free Packrat account is required) and we email you the UPS price within 2 working days. The quote shows the UPS service and expected delivery time. You then pay for your goods and delivery together by card from the link in that email. You have 48 hours to pay once quoted, and we hold your items for you in the meantime.
- •Weight limit:Orders up to 30 kg can ship to every European destination we serve.
- •Tracking: Every UPS parcel is tracked, and the tracking number is emailed to you at dispatch.
- •Import charges: Import VAT, any customs duty and the UPS clearance (brokerage) fee are paid by you to UPS on delivery and are not included in your order total.
- •Currency: Checkout is in GBP. Your bank converts at their rate, which is usually better than the Eurozone markups most EU retailers charge.
Irish VAT and UPS clearance
About import VAT and customs
Your order total covers the items and UPS delivery only. It does not include any import VAT or customs duty your country may charge on entry, because those are set by your own government, not by us, and it does not include the UPS clearance (brokerage) fee. Packages are sent Delivered Duty Unpaid (DDU), which is standard for cross-border retail and means you pay these charges to UPS on delivery.
In practice: UPS asks you to pay the import VAT, any duty and its clearance fee on delivery, and your parcel is then handed over. Since July 2021 there is no minimum value for EU import VAT, so budget for it on every order, not just large ones. Customs duty is a separate charge that only applies above €150, and trading cards do not normally attract it.
For Ireland specifically: Ireland is an international destination for us, not a UK-rate one. UPS delivers and collects Irish VAT at the standard rate, plus the UPS clearance fee, on delivery. This applies to orders of any value, including small ones, because we ship DDU rather than charging EU VAT at checkout. Customs duty is only a factor above €150. The Revenue Commissioners publish the current rates if you want to work out your landed cost before ordering.
You can always reach us if a package is stuck at customs and we'll help you resolve it. Contact support.

We pack and dispatch within 1-2 business days of payment. Transit time depends on your country and the UPS service available there, so your UPS delivery quote shows the service and the expected delivery time before you pay.
International delivery is quoted per order rather than priced at checkout. Request a UPS delivery quote from your cart (a free Packrat account is required) and we email you the UPS price within 2 working days. You then pay for your goods and delivery together by card from the link in that email. You have 48 hours to pay once quoted, and we hold your items for you in the meantime. Orders up to 30 kg can ship to every European destination we serve.
We ship Delivered Duty Unpaid (DDU), which means your order total does NOT include any import VAT or customs duty your country may apply on entry, or the UPS clearance (brokerage) fee. You pay these to UPS on delivery. Since July 2021 the EU applies import VAT at your country's standard rate with no minimum value, so expect it on every order regardless of size. Customs duty is separate, only applies above €150, and trading cards do not normally attract it. See the "About import VAT and customs" section above for details.

Checkout is in British pounds (GBP). Your bank or card provider handles the conversion to your local currency at their interbank rate, which is usually better than the in-store Eurozone markups most EU retailers charge. International orders are paid by card from the link in your UPS delivery quote email.
Yes. EU consumer rights give you a 14-day right to cancel after delivery for any reason, and we honor that for all European customers. You cover the return postage; we refund the item cost once we've received and inspected the package. If the order was damaged or sent in error we cover the return shipping. See our Returns page for the full process.
A few reasons, depending on what you're buying. First, GBP checkout is often 10-15% cheaper than EUR-denominated EU retailers on the same product, because we price in the weaker currency. Second, we stock Japanese TCG booster boxes at 30-50% below English prices, which are hard to find at EU retailers. Third, our range across 9 TCGs (Pokemon, Yu-Gi-Oh!, MTG, Lorcana, One Piece, Dragon Ball, Gundam, LoL, Star Wars Unlimited) means one order covers the whole collection, not three separate shops. Every international order ships tracked with UPS, and you get real buyer protection throughout.
