What being a member actually gets you

10% off your first order

A code that belongs to you, not a public one anyone can find. It works once, on your first order, with no minimum, and it’s good for 30 days.

First look at new drops

We announce new series to the list before they go on the site. Our fastest blind box series sell out in days, and short runs don’t always come back — knowing first is the whole point.

Restock alerts on sold-out boxes

Every sold-out product page has a notify me box. Drop your email there and we’ll tell you the moment that exact item lands, before it goes anywhere else.

Where we’ll be

We’re at conventions and markets around Louisiana most months. Members know before we set up.

That’s about one email a week. No daily blasts, no fake countdown timers, and you can unsubscribe from any email in one click.

Who we are

Collector Life started because collecting had become annoying. Fakes everywhere. Six-week waits from overseas. Surprise customs charges on a $20 figure. Listings that quietly turned out to be a different product than the photo.

So we built the store we wanted to buy from. We’re based in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, we hold our own stock, and we pick what we carry by hand — every product and collection chosen for material quality, artistry and consistency rather than whatever a distributor is clearing that month.

We sell blind boxes and designer toys from Pop Mart, Nanci, Suri, Kaleido Creative, Funism and others, alongside Gundam and anime model kits from Bandai, Kotobukiya and the 30MM and 30MF lines. If we wouldn’t put it on our own shelf, it isn’t on the site.

Authentic, or we make it right

Everything we sell comes directly from the manufacturer or a verified, approved distributor. We don’t dropship, and we don’t buy from unverified marketplace sellers.

That matters more in this category than most. Counterfeit blind box figures and bootleg Gunpla are genuinely widespread, and the tells are subtle — paint slop, soft box printing, plastic that snaps together wrong. Price is often the giveaway: legitimate discounts in this hobby rarely run deeper than 10–15% off, so a figure at half price usually isn’t the figure.

If anything you receive from us isn’t what it should be, contact us and we’ll sort it out — see the returns terms below.

Shipping and returns, plainly

Free shipping on orders over $50. Orders under $50 ship at a flat $8 rate.

Ships from Baton Rouge, Louisiana. No overseas transit, no customs charges, no import surprises.

30-day returns. You have 30 days from receiving your item to request one. If your return is accepted we send you a return shipping label and instructions.

Refunds within 10 business days of us receiving and approving your return, back to your original payment method.

Damaged or wrong item? Inspect your order when it arrives and contact us straight away so we can make it right.

Questions

What does membership cost?

Nothing. It’s an email list. There’s no fee, no account required, and no catch.

How do I get my 10% code?

It appears on screen the moment you join, and we email it to you as well so it’s there when you need it.

What are the terms on the code?

One code per customer, valid on your first order only, no minimum spend, and it expires 30 days after you receive it. It can be combined with free shipping but not with other discount codes.

How often will you email me?

About once a week — new drops and restocks. If we don’t have anything worth telling you about, we don’t email.

How do I know your products are authentic?

We source directly from manufacturers and verified approved distributors, and we hold the stock ourselves in Louisiana rather than passing orders to a third party. If you ever receive something you have doubts about, contact us.

Can I unsubscribe?

Any time, in one click, from the bottom of any email we send. Unsubscribing doesn’t affect an order you’ve already placed.
