Price Match Policy

We will match the price on a new identical product found at any other company. Simply show us the lower price at the time of purchase and we will match the price.

The product must be identical, including model number and components. The product must be in stock and available for purchase at the lower price from an authorized Canadian reseller. Please note we do not price match taxes, typographical errors, delivery charges, and discounts (i.e. rebates, gift cards, or equivalent). We will only match the price you pay at the point of purchase. We may limit the quantities of price–matched items, particularly if the other company does. In addition, we reserve the right to limit quantities sold to a customer.

We reserve the right to amend or update this policy without prior notice.

Shipping Information
We aim to send standard orders to you in a timely manner. We send parcels via Canada Post (Expedited Parcel Post) from our warehouse to arrive within 14 to 21 days of receipt of the order pending on product availability. Parcels being sent to the United States may require a delivery date of 21 days. Certain products from our suppliers may require a more lengthy delivery date, and items ordered together may arrive in separate parcels. Customers are subject to a shipping and handling fee of $15.00 per order ($20.00 for U.S. orders). Due to the heavier weight of larger items, additional shipping charges may apply (also applies to any orders that qualify for free shipping), which the customer is responsible for. Special handling fees might also apply to certain destinations. If this is the case, we will notify you by email or telephone. We do not offer shipment of merchandise outside of Canada and the United States.

For an additional charge per order within Canada, we can arrange for an Express delivery by Canada Post. The Express Post shipping costs are listed below:

• Ontario: $14.00 per order, expected delivery date 3 business days.
• Manitoba, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Quebec, Nova Scotia, Newfoundland, New Brunswick, and Prince Edward Island: $21.00 per order, 3 to 5 business days.
• British Columbia, Northwest Territories, Yukon Territory, and Nunavut: $26.00 per order, 3 to 5 business days.

Please be aware that the Express service is not always available for oversize or items that are out of stock. Unfortunately, we do not offer the Express service outside of Canada.

We make every effort to maintain a sufficient stock and to ensure that you receive your order as quickly as possible. However, we cannot guarantee the availability of all products due to unexpected levels of demand alongside the time required to manufacture products to replenish stock. As a result, the arrival of your order may extend past the expected delivery date.
