Yes. Everything on this site is a real, functioning object designed by Matty Benedetto, made in small limited runs. When a run sells out, it may not come back.

Runs are limited by design. Some items return, many don't. The product page is the source of truth, and the email list hears about restocks and new drops first.

Pre-orders are tied to an upcoming production run. The estimated ship date is on the product page and at checkout. If a run slips, we'll email you rather than leave you guessing.

Items like the Intersection Opener ship as a mystery — you know the product, not which variant you'll pull. No swaps on blind-box pulls. That's the fun part.

Burlington, Vermont, USA. A real person packs every order, Monday through Friday.

In-stock items leave within 1–2 business days. Once shipped, transit usually runs 4–30 business days depending on where you are and how quickly local customs moves.

Yes, we ship worldwide. Most destinations ship duties-paid (DDP) — the total at checkout is the final total, nothing extra at your door. A small number of destinations ship duties-unpaid, and checkout tells you up front when that applies.

You'll get a confirmation email when you order and a tracking link the moment it ships. Give tracking 24–48 hours to start updating — carriers are slow to wake up.

30 days from delivery. Items must be unused, with tags, in original packaging. Email thatwasmadebymatty@gmail.com to start a return and we'll send you a return shipping label. EU customers also have a 14-day no-questions cooling-off period.

Inspect your order when it lands and contact us immediately with a photo. If it's defective, damaged, or the wrong item, we'll make it right.

Fastest path: return the item you have, and once the return is accepted, place a separate order for what you want.

Double-check your address at checkout — once an order ships, rerouting is nearly impossible. If you catch a mistake, email us fast and we'll try to grab it before it leaves Vermont.
