TERMS OF SERVICE, STORE POLICIES, AND PRIVACY POLICY

Effective Date: July 3, 2026

Last Updated: July 9, 2026

Welcome to the business premises and digital platforms of YOTT Club LLC, a Minnesota limited liability company doing business as “Mythic Mercantile” and “The WarpCore Arcade” (collectively referred to herein as the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”).

By entering our physical storefronts, purchasing tokens, participating in our Buy-Sell-Trade program, utilizing our arcade amusement devices, registering for tournaments, renting our event spaces, or interacting with our digital services, you (“Customer,” “Guest,” “Host,” “Player,” “you,” or “your”) expressly agree to be legally bound by the following Terms of Service, Store Policies, Liability Waivers, Media Releases, and Privacy Policies. If you do not agree to these terms, you must immediately exit the premises and refrain from using our services.

SECTION 1: BUY-SELL-TRADE (BST) & PROPERTY POLICIES

The Company operates a secondary-market retail program for vintage and modern pop culture collectibles, toys, apparel, and games. Participation in this program is strictly governed by the following provisions:

1.1 Age and Identification Requirements

In strict compliance with state and local secondhand dealer laws, you must be at least eighteen (18) years of age and present a valid, unexpired, government-issued photo identification card (e.g., Driver’s License, State ID, or Passport) to sell or trade merchandise to the Company.

1.2 Valuation and Absolute Discretion

All valuations, pricing offers, and determinations regarding cash payouts or store credit are made at the sole and absolute discretion of the Company’s management and staff. Valuations are determined based on real-time market volatility, item condition, completeness, and current store inventory levels. Offers are non-binding until a transaction receipt is executed and are valid exclusively at the exact time of evaluation.

1.3 Warranty of Title and Authenticity

By offering items for sale or trade, you expressly warrant, represent, and covenant that:

  • You are the sole legal and rightful owner of the merchandise.
  • The merchandise is entirely free and clear of all liens, encumbrances, security interests, or third-party claims.
  • The items are genuine, authentic, and authorized original fabrications of their respective manufacturers. The Company maintains a zero-tolerance policy for counterfeit, bootleg, or unauthorized reproduction merchandise. If an item is determined to be counterfeit subsequent to a transaction, the Company reserves the absolute right to demand a full financial reversal, cancel outstanding store credit, and pursue all available legal remedies for fraud.

1.4 Finality of Transactions

Upon the mutual execution of a Buy-Sell-Trade transaction and the issuance of cash or store credit, legal title of the merchandise transfers irrevocably and completely to the Company. All BST transactions are final. Transactions cannot be canceled, rescinded, reversed, or amended by the Customer under any circumstances once payment or credit has been issued.

1.5 Store Credit Policy

Store credit issued by the Company possesses no independent cash value, is completely non-transferable, and cannot be redeemed or converted to cash at a later date, except where expressly mandated by applicable state law. Customers may not independently convert store credit into arcade tokens; however, the Company reserves the absolute right, at the sole discretion of management, to permit the conversion of store credit into physical arcade tokens on a case-by-case basis.

1.6 Abandoned Goods and Unclaimed Evaluations Policy

Customers frequently bring in collections or inventory bins for staff evaluation.

  • If you leave your items on the Company premises to be evaluated, you must return to finalize the transaction or retrieve your items by the close of business on the same calendar day.
  • Forfeiture of Unclaimed Property: Any merchandise left on the Company premises for evaluation or trade review for more than forty-eight (48) hours without a finalized transaction, executed agreement, or an explicit written extension approved by management will be legally deemed abandoned. The Company reserves the unilateral right to dispose of, donate, or absorb such abandoned property into store inventory without further notice, liability, or financial compensation to the original owner.

SECTION 2: THE WARPCORE ARCADE OPERATIONAL RULES & PAYMENTS

The WarpCore Arcade is a dedicated, token-operated amusement space. Access to and use of the arcade floor are subject to strict adherence to our payment architecture and operational guidelines.

2.1 Token and Quarter Architecture Only

The WarpCore Arcade operates strictly and exclusively on a physical currency basis utilizing quarters or proprietary arcade tokens.

  • The Company does not offer timed admission passes, free-play wristbands, or flat-rate entry fees during standard public operating hours.
  • All amusement cabinets, pinball machines, claw machines, and gachapon units require the insertion of physical tokens or quarters to initiate gameplay.
  • No Refunds on Tokens: Tokens purchased via cash or electronic payment at our token changers or cash registers are non-refundable, hold no cash value, and cannot be exchanged back into legal tender. Unused tokens remain valid for future visits to The WarpCore Arcade.

2.2 Equipment Etiquette and Property Damage

Our arcade floor features highly sensitive, vintage, and irreplaceable electro-mechanical and digital components.

  • Guests must treat all property with respect. Rough handling, physical abuse, tilting, shaking, hitting, or slam-tilting of cabinets, glass displays, coin mechanisms, or pinball machines is strictly prohibited.
  • Financial Liability for Vandalism: You assume full personal financial liability for any damage caused to our equipment resulting from negligence, intentional misconduct, or failure to follow posted game rules. The Company will pursue full restitution for parts, specialized labor, and business interruption losses from any individual who damages property.

2.3 Chance and Skill Machine Disclaimer (Claw Machines & Gachapons)

The WarpCore Arcade operates amusement devices driven by specialized physical skill, mechanical manipulation, or randomized chance, including but not limited to claw machines, skill-cutters, and Japanese gachapon dispensers.

  • No Winning Outcome Guaranteed: All such devices are provided strictly on an “As-Is, Play-at-Your-Own-Risk” basis. Your payment inserts a credit for a gameplay attempt or a single randomized capsule draw.
  • The Company explicitly disclaims any contractual guarantee of a specific prize, physical payout, or winning outcome. Staff members are not authorized to issue token or cash refunds due to a user’s failure to capture or win a desired item.

SECTION 3: PRIVATE EVENTS AND ARCADE RENTALS

The Company offers private facility and space rentals for birthdays, gatherings, and special events. All private bookings are strictly governed by the following operational terms:

3.1 Rental Allotment of Tokens and Game Credits

For private events and facility rentals where gameplay is included in the booking package, physical arcade tokens or game credits will be provided to the Host and their guests by the Company in lieu of a standard cash currency transaction or open “free-play” administrative bypass.

  • These event tokens are structural components of the facility rental service fee.
  • No Cash Value or Redemption: Included event tokens carry zero standalone cash value, are entirely non-refundable, and cannot under any circumstances be redeemed, returned, or exchanged for cash or retail store credit, regardless of whether they are left unused at the conclusion of the rental period.

3.2 Booking, Deposits, and Cancellations

All private event reservations require the execution of a separate Rental Agreement and the payment of a specified, non-refundable deposit to secure the date and time. The remaining balance must be paid in full prior to the start of the event. Cancellations made outside of the contractually designated window will result in the forfeiture of the deposit.

3.3 Host Responsibility and Attendee Liability

The individual or entity booking the private rental (“Host”) assumes primary responsibility for the conduct of all attendees during the event window.

  • The Host agrees to ensure all guests comply with the Company’s equipment etiquette and facility rules.
  • The Host may be held jointly and severally liable with their guests for any property damage, excessive clean-up costs, or structural vandalism occurring during the rental period.

SECTION 4: TABLETOP TIMELINES & COMPETITIVE TOURNAMENTS

The Company hosts structured community activities, Trading Card Game (TCG) tournaments (e.g., Pokémon), and tabletop roleplaying sessions (e.g., Dungeons & Dragons).

4.1 Independent Tournament Status and Intellectual Property

The Company operates competitive gaming environments as an independent retail storefront. All tournaments, events, and gameplay leagues are completely independent operations. All trademarks, character names, game designs, logos, and related intellectual properties belong exclusively to their respective copyright holders (e.g., The Pokémon Company, Wizards of the Coast) and no corporate endorsement or legal affiliation is implied.

4.2 Absolute Authority of Tournament Rulings

To ensure a fair and balanced competitive structure, all rule interpretations, match pairings, player disciplinary actions, or active table judge decisions issued by the Company’s event staff are final and non-appealable.

4.3 Prize Structure Adjustments

The Company reserves the unilateral right to amend, alter, or scale posted tournament prize structures (including booster box distributions, promotional cards, or prize-allocated store credit) based on final recorded player turnout, distributor inventory allocations, or registration numbers. Promised payouts are non-negotiable and carry no standalone cash-out value.

SECTION 5: LIABILITY WAIVERS, SURVEILLANCE, & SOCIAL MEDIA CROWD RELEASE

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT CONTAINS A RELEASE OF LIABILITY, SURVEILLANCE DISCLOSURE, AND MEDIA RELEASE THAT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS.

5.1 Assumption of Inherent Risks

By entering the premises of Mythic Mercantile and The WarpCore Arcade (including attendance at a private event or tournament), you acknowledge and agree that your participation in arcade gaming and community gatherings involves inherent risks of physical injury, illness, or property damage. These risks include, but are not limited to, flashing lights capable of triggering epileptic episodes, repetitive motion injuries, trips, slips, falls, and collisions with equipment or other patrons. You voluntarily, knowingly, and freely assume all such risks, both known and unknown, even if arising from the negligence of the Releasees (defined below).

5.2 Specific High-Exertion Game Waiver (Dance Dance Revolution and Interactive Equipment)

You explicitly acknowledge that utilizing high-exertion, rhythm-based, or physically interactive amusement devices—specifically including, but not limited to, Dance Dance Revolution (DDR), dancing platforms, and driving simulators—requires rigorous physical movement, balance, and cardiovascular exertion.

  • Physical Condition Representation: By stepping onto a DDR platform or interactive game, you warrant that you are in proper physical health, free from any medical conditions that could be aggravated by physical exertion, and physically capable of safely engaging in such gameplay.
  • Injury Waiver: You assume full responsibility for any and all injuries sustained while utilizing these devices, including muscle strains, joint sprains, fractures, falls off the elevated game platforms, or cardiovascular distress. You agree to use the safety bars provided on the machines appropriately and to clear the platform area of all personal property before beginning play.

5.3 Continuous Closed-Circuit Video Surveillance Notice and Consent

For the safety of our guests, protection of rare inventory, prevention of fraud, and security of our equipment, the physical premises of Mythic Mercantile and The WarpCore Arcade are under continuous 24-hour closed-circuit television (CCTV) video and audio surveillance.

  • By entering our premises, you understand, acknowledge, and explicitly consent to being photographed, video-recorded, and audio-recorded by the Company’s security systems.
  • You grant YOTT Club LLC the absolute right to use, copy, and review such surveillance footage for safety investigations, liability defense, asset protection, and cooperation with law enforcement agencies without further notice or compensation to you.

5.4 Social Media Content Creation and Crowd Media Release

The Company frequently captures video and photographic content within our physical premises for promotional marketing, live streams, tournament coverage, and organic social media publishing (including but not limited to platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok).

  • Blanket Likeness Waiver: By entering our storefronts or arcade spaces, you understand that you are entering a public accommodation where recording occurs. You hereby grant YOTT Club LLC the irrevocable, worldwide, perpetual, and royalty-free right to use, publish, broadcast, edit, and distribute your appearance, voice, image, and likeness within any social media content or marketing materials created on-site.
  • Minor Protection Notice: While blanket entry signage covers crowd atmosphere recordings, it is the standard policy of the Company to seek verbal or written verification from a parent or legal guardian prior to filming intentional, close-up, individual marketing features of a minor child.
  • Compensation and Approval Rights: You waive any right to financial compensation, royalties, or the right to inspect or approve the finished video, photo, or audio asset prior to its public distribution online. If you do not wish to be featured in marketing or social media content, it is your responsibility to inform filming staff or step out of the designated filming area.

5.5 Complete Release and Hold Harmless

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, you, on behalf of yourself, your heirs, executors, administrators, personal representatives, and assigns, hereby RELEASE, WAIVE, FOREVER DISCHARGE, AND HOLD HARMLESS YOTT Club LLC (d/b/a Mythic Mercantile and The WarpCore Arcade), its parent companies, subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, directors, members, managers, employees, agents, and landlords (collectively, the “Releasees”) from any and all liability, claims, demands, actions, causes of action, damages, costs, or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of or related to any personal injury, bodily injury, illness, death, or property loss/damage you or your minor children may sustain while on our premises, whether caused by the active or passive negligence of the Releasees or otherwise.

5.6 “As-Is” Equipment Condition

The Company provides access to its arcade amusement devices entirely on an “As-Is” and “As-Available” basis. While we perform regular preventative maintenance, the Company makes no warranties, express or implied, regarding the mechanical or electrical safety of vintage machinery during active operation.

SECTION 6: RETAIL RETURNS, SHIPPING, & E-COMMERCE CONFLICTS

6.1 General Return Policy (All Sales Are Final)

Except as expressly provided otherwise in this Section, all sales of merchandise at Mythic Mercantile—including vintage toys, action figures, apparel, comic books, trading cards, and collectibles—are strictly final. The Company does not accept returns, cancellations, or exchanges for change of mind, buyer’s remorse, or variance in vintage item condition.

6.2 Rare Exceptions and Absolute Management Discretion

The Company reserves the absolute, unilateral right to authorize a return, exchange, or refund on a strict case-by-case basis under extraordinary circumstances (e.g., a catastrophic internal component defect hidden in a modern item).

  • Any such exception is granted at the sole and absolute discretion of store management.
  • Authorized exceptions may be subject to a 15% restocking fee, or may be issued exclusively as store credit rather than a reversal to the original payment method, at management’s determination.

6.3 Shipped and E-Commerce Orders

For any items purchased through our digital channels and shipped directly to the Customer, the following strict terms apply:

  • Return Shipping Responsibility: In the rare event that management explicitly authorizes a return or exchange for a shipped order, the Customer assumes 100% of the financial and logistical responsibility for shipping the item back to the Company. The Company will not provide pre-paid shipping labels, nor will it reimburse shipping fees.
  • Condition of Returned Items: Authorized returns must be safely packed and arrive back at our facility in the exact same condition in which they were originally dispatched. If an item is damaged or lost in transit during a return shipment, the return will be nullified, and no refund or credit will be issued.
  • Shipping Damage Claims: The Company is not responsible for damages, delays, or losses caused by third-party shipping carriers (e.g., USPS, UPS, FedEx). It is the buyer’s responsibility to inspect packages upon arrival and file any necessary damage claims directly with the transit carrier.

6.4 E-Commerce Inventory Sync and Cancellation Clause

Because the Company deals heavily in rare, unique, one-of-a-kind vintage items, our stock is frequently cross-listed simultaneously across our physical retail showroom floors and our digital e-commerce storefronts.

  • You acknowledge that a marginal data-sync delay may occur between our physical point-of-sale registers and our digital networks.
  • Right to Cancel Orders: The Company explicitly reserves the absolute, unilateral right to cancel any digital order, cart checkout, or e-commerce purchase and issue an immediate, prompt, full financial refund to the digital buyer if a piece of merchandise is sold in-person to a physical storefront customer immediately prior to, or simultaneously with, the processing of an online order. The Company bears zero liability or penalty for structural stock outages resulting from real-time omnichannel sales overlap.

SECTION 7: GENERAL LEGAL PROTECTIONS

7.1 Right to Refuse Service and Expulsion

The Company reserves the absolute, unilateral right to refuse service, deny entry, or immediately expel any individual from the premises without a refund who, in the sole judgment of store management:

  • Exhibits disruptive, erratic, or aggressive behavior toward staff or other patrons.
  • Intentionally misuses or damages arcade equipment.
  • Violates any posted rules or instructions provided by staff members.

7.2 Limitation of Liability

UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHALL THE COMPANY OR THE RELEASEES BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, OR USE, ARISING OUT OF YOUR VISIT TO THE PREMISES, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER SUCH LIABILITY IS CLAIMED IN CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), OR STRICT LIABILITY, EVEN IF THE COMPANY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

7.3 Governing Law and Venue

These terms, policies, and waivers shall be governed by, interpreted, and enforced strictly in accordance with the laws of the State of Minnesota, without regard to its conflict of law principles. Any legal action, lawsuit, or judicial proceeding arising out of or relating to these terms or your visit to our premises must be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in St. Louis County, Minnesota.

7.4 Severability and Integration

If any provision or specific clause of these Terms is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, such provision shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it valid and enforceable, and the remaining provisions of these Terms shall remain in full force and effect. This document constitutes the entire agreement between you and the Company regarding your physical presence on the premises and supersedes all prior oral or written representations.

SECTION 8: PRIVACY POLICY & DATA PROTECTION

The Company is committed to handling your personal data responsibly. This Privacy Policy details our transparent collection and protection frameworks.

  • Contractual Fulfillment: To process retail transactions, manage event rentals, calculate store credit, and manage your account.
  • Premises Security & Asset Protection: Surveillance footage is reviewed exclusively to ensure the safety of patrons and employees, prevent theft or vandalism, resolve transaction disputes, and defend against fraudulent liability claims.
  • Brand Marketing: Social media photography and video content are utilized to engage the community, highlight store events, and promote the business.
  • Legal Compliance: To maintain transaction ledgers strictly required by local law enforcement and regulatory bodies governing secondhand and collectible goods trade.

  • Restricted Disclosure: Personal information and security recordings are disclosed outside the organization only to verified payment processors executing your transactions, secure cloud infrastructure hosts, legal counsel representing the Company, or to law enforcement agencies upon the presentation of a valid subpoena, warrant, or statutory mandate under local secondhand dealer ordinances.

Security camera footage is stored on a continuous rolling overwrite schedule and is automatically deleted within a standard operational window (typically 30 days) unless flagged for an active security, fraud, or legal investigation.

The Company reserves the right to amend, alter, or update these Terms of Service and Privacy Policies at any time without prior individual notice. Any modifications become effective immediately upon being posted within our retail spaces or on our digital platforms. Your continued entry into our storefronts, registration for events, or purchase of arcade tokens following such updates constitutes your binding acceptance of the revised terms.
