Enginediyshop

Enginediyshop is an online retailer of engine models and engine kits that hobbyists assemble themselves. Its About page says the business was established in 2009 and later grew into a store serving buyers around the world. Returns are processed at an address in Shenzhen, China, the store profile gives Garner, North Carolina, and a separate collection groups models held in a US warehouse.

What Enginediyshop sells

• Steam engine models, plus boilers, pumps, whistles, regulators and steam kits for vehicles and boats
• MOC brick engine kits, from V2 twins and inline-six L6 builds to V8, V12, V16, turbofan and gearbox models
• Stirling engines, hit-and-miss engines, retro engines and gasoline engine models
• Models from Retrol, Enjomor, Kacio, Toyan, Musa and Teching, along with dismantling, welding and power-generation tools

Beyond retail orders, the store runs a drop-shipping service that sends parcels straight to a reseller's own customers, and it recruits distributors for engine-model kits.

Delivery and returns

Enginediyshop says shipping is free to every country it serves. Its shipping page puts delivery to the United States at 3 to 15 business days, with the total time counted as processing plus transit, and a second email with tracking details follows dispatch. The same page warns that express parcels are more likely to be stopped by customs officers and to attract higher import duties.

Returns are accepted within 30 days of receipt for unused items in the original packaging with every accessory included. The buyer pays return shipping, which is deducted from the refund, and money goes back to the original payment method 1 to 3 business days after the parcel is inspected. Gift cards, opened media and items bought on sale cannot be returned (checked October 2026). Defects or damage found on arrival are handled within the same 30-day window.
