Product Types
FMC sells two types of items:
Merchandise (physical goods)
Products such as mugs, apparel, tote bags, and accessories are manufactured and shipped through third-party providers. Shipping rates and delivery times vary based on destination and carrier.

- FMC reserves the right to refuse or cancel orders if fraud is suspected or information is incomplete.
Shipping (Physical Goods Only)
- Shipping fees are calculated at checkout.
- Delivery dates are estimates and not guaranteed.
- FMC is not responsible for delays caused by carriers, weather, or fulfillment partners.
- Lost or damaged items will be addressed on a case-by-case basis; we will assist you in working with the fulfillment provider.

Taxes
Applicable sales tax will be calculated at checkout based on your location.
International Orders, Duties & Customs Fees
For orders shipped outside the United States:
- Customs duties, import taxes, VAT, and any additional fees imposed by the destination country are the responsibility of the customer.
- These charges are not included in the product price or shipping costs shown at checkout.
- FMC and our fulfillment partners (including Printful) cannot predict or control these fees.
