LOST PACKAGES

While it happens rarely, packages sent via Postal Mail are occasionally lost in transit.

For deliveries sent by Xpresspost, claims can be submitted within 1-2 days after the anticipated delivery arrival date.

For deliveries sent by surface or air mail, the Post Office requires a minimum of 45 business days from the date of mailing before a shipment can be deemed as lost in transit and a claim submitted.

We apologize in advance for any inconvenience due to the delay if your shipment goes missing, but we are bound by the Post Office rules and regulations.


DAMAGED PACKAGES

Most packages sent by the Grand Toy Wizard Store include insurance against damage. However, coverage against damage is NOT available on glass, ceramic, or perishable items. If your package has been damaged during shipment, please contact us immediately. We will work with you and with Canada Post to help resolve the situation.


CUSTOMS

For shipments to destinations outside of Canada, you will be responsible for any customs or import duties or taxes that may be levied by your country, as well as any customs clearance and/or brokerage charges. Customs policies vary widely from country to country. Please contact your local customs office for further information.

All orders shipped by The Grand Toy Wizard Store to destinations outside of Canada will contain a packing slip noting the package's contents and value. If the order is a gift, it will be noted as such on the declaration, but the content and cost of the item(s) must still be declared.


PACKAGING & HANDLING STANDARDS

There is a $1.00 handling charge on all Xpresspost and Expedited Parcel shipments. This nominal charge helps to offset our packaging costs. Whenever possible, we ship using environmentally-friendly, recyclable and/or reuseable packing materials. This means we also re-use what we have salvaged from previous shipments. It may not make for the prettiest package in your mailbox, but it definitely makes for a prettier world (and in no way reflects on the quality of the contents or the quality of the packaging). When you receive a shipment from us, please take the next step and reuse or recycle whatever you can. Thank you!
