Secure transactions tailored for high-end mecha collectibles
At MECHA REALM STORE, we understand that premium collectibles deserve premium payment solutions. Our global clientele of serious collectors demands both convenience and ironclad security when acquiring their display-worthy masterpieces. Below you’ll find detailed information about our carefully curated payment methods, each selected to provide seamless transactions for our exclusive mecha figures and limited-edition combiners.
Accepted Payment Methods
Visa
The world’s most recognized payment network is our default recommendation for international collectors. Visa’s robust fraud protection and widespread acceptance make it ideal for:
- Securing pre-orders for limited-run figures (e.g., FansToys or APC Toys releases)
- Large purchases of combiners or museum-quality pieces
- Collectors requiring purchase protection on high-value items
Note: Some banks may flag unusually large transactions for verification when purchasing multiple premium figures. We recommend notifying your card issuer in advance for orders exceeding $500.
MasterCard
Preferred by many of our European and Asian clients, MasterCard offers competitive foreign exchange rates for international collectors acquiring:
- LED-enhanced display pieces from Azure Sea Studios
- Articulated action figures with die-cast components
- Complete sets of 3rd/4th party Transformers figures
Our system automatically processes MasterCard transactions in your local currency when possible, minimizing conversion fees.
JCB
Specifically added to serve our dedicated Japanese collector base who seek:
- Rare variants not available in domestic markets
- International exclusives from studios like BadCube or DX9
- Early access to pre-orders before Asian distribution
JCB transactions benefit from enhanced security protocols perfect for high-ticket items like museum-quality mecha or limited-edition combiners.
PayPal
The choice for collectors who value an additional layer of purchase protection, especially when acquiring:
- Fragile resin statues and delicate display pieces
- First-time purchases from independent studios
- Oversized items requiring custom shipping solutions
PayPal’s buyer protection program complements our own quality guarantees, though please note it adds approximately 1-2 business days to order processing.
Strategic Payment Tips for Serious Collectors
For pre-orders: Consider using credit cards (Visa/MasterCard) to delay actual payment until shipment while securing your place in limited production runs.
For immediate shipments: PayPal offers the fastest processing once items are in stock.
For Asian collectors: JCB often provides the most favorable exchange rates when purchasing Western-market exclusives.
Transaction Security
Every transaction at MECHA REALM STORE benefits from:
- 256-bit SSL encryption matching banking standards
- Tokenization that never stores raw payment data on our servers
- PCI-DSS compliant processing through certified payment gateways
- Manual fraud screening for unusually large or complex orders

Special Considerations
Pennsylvania residents: Applicable state sales tax will be calculated during checkout.
International collectors: While we don’t charge customs fees, your local import regulations may apply. We recommend:
- Checking duty thresholds before ordering multiple high-value figures
- Considering separate shipments for large collections to avoid exceeding limits
- Using tracked shipping methods for customs documentation
For any payment-related inquiries, our Philadelphia-based collector support team (fellow enthusiasts themselves) are available at [email protected]. We typically respond within 24 business hours.
Remember: At MECHA REALM STORE, we don’t just process payments – we facilitate the acquisition of collectible dreams, with the same attention to detail that goes into crafting the premium mecha figures we’re honored to deliver to your display cases.
