Shipping & Distribution FAQ

Spirit Magicka maintains a shipping center in Donghai, China. And yes, all of our crystals and stones are ethically sourced.

Our warehouse maintains good working conditions. We have a small team of 2-4 people to manage all orders and shipping logistics for nearly 10 years.

With that being said, Let's talk.

China has a bad reputation because a lot of big companies HAVE taken advantage of the people in China (and the lower wages there on average). I won't name any names, but you are probably using one of their smartphones to view this page right now.

For OUR PART, here at Spirit Magicka, we ship out of China because from China we are able to ship to the entire world, quickly, efficiently and at some of the best shipping costs. China offers the best shipping services in the world.

Our employees are paid near to North American wages. Our goal is to see everyone prosper. We enjoy the access to the markets of China, and the shipping logistics, but we don't take advantage of our people.

Shipping from China

This is the important part.

A lot of North American companies realize that China has a bad global reputation and want to distance themselves from being associated with China.

But, they still buy their goods FROM China - the common practice is to first ship to their local warehouse in their local country, IE, the USA, and then ship from their local warehouse to your address. Which allows them to bypass the stigma of shipping from China.

The problem with this, is that it increases the cost for shipping #1, and it actually also increase the environmental impact #2. It's twice as much shipping, it adds expense, and it doesn't really save any time anymore, since direct China shipping has become so effecient.

China is a global HUB for the entire worlds markets. In-fact most items in your home / business / shopping mall first bounce through Chinese marketplaces. Even if they aren't manufactured in China, they are often shipped into China and then distributed.

Don't get me wrong.

Yes, many people in China do get taken advantage - especially by big companies (those big billion-dollar companies that SHOULD be fairer, are usually the worst at actually being so).

We are doing our part!

As a company, here at Spirit Magicka, are doing our part to elevate our employees. We aren't a mega company and we can't help everyone - but we can take care of the people who work for us directly.

And ultimately, that is all that anyone can really do in this life. Do the best that you can do for your own circle of friends (employees) or whatever the case may be.

So, don't worry. At Spirit Magicka, we take care of our people, and you can FEEL GOOD about your order.
