Shipping policy
2025.04.01 IMPORTANT NOTICE FOR U.S. CUSTOMERS
We are a Canadian-based company. We manufacture some products in Canada, and import some others from China.
Please note that orders shipped to the US will be subject to customs duties, tariffs, or other import fees. These charges are imposed by the U.S. government and are the sole responsibility of the recipient. Unfortunately, we have no control over these fees and will not waive or reimburse them.
Due to this situation, all U.S. sales are final and we do not accept returns from the United States. We encourage you to review your order carefully before completing your purchase.
Thank you for your understanding, and know we truly regret this unfortunate situation. Like many of you, we hope for a peaceful resolution to this trade conflict so we can all get back to doing business as usual — fairly and freely.
