Customer Service
Payment, Shipping, and Returns
We accept VISA for payment of merchandise. All prices are in Canadian dollars. We do not actually charge your credit card until your order is shipped.
All items are shipped as Expedited Parcels Canada Post. Please allow 3-8 days for delivery within Canada, and 7-11 days for delivery within the US.
If you want faster shipping, we will send items Expresspost for an extra charge. Expresspost takes 2-3 business days within Canada and 3-6 business days to the United States. The Expresspost charge outside of BC is typically a little more than double the regular postage, and varies based on the size and weight of your purchase. Please contact us for more information about this option.
Shipping in Canada and the US
Packages are insured and sent by Canada Post. The charge calculated by the website for shipping is based on the overall value of your order. However, for items that are lighter such as jewelry, the shipping charge is typically adjusted to our minimum shipping and handling charge of $8.
