Why does my order cost so much to ship?

All orders are shipped via Canada Post and the shipping price at checkout is reflective of the price we pay to Canada Post.

I got an email saying my address can not be verified. What do I do?

Before we ship your order to us we verify your order against the Canada Post database of recognized Canadian addresses. If Canada Post does not recognize your address this means your order will not be delivered to you.
