Notice to US residents

Since 2025 August 29, Donald Trump has signed a decree requiring you to pay a 20 to 35% tariffs on all purchases made in Canada. In addition, we must pay these fees ourselves before we can ship your package and charge you for them at the time of your purchase. Since we are unable to program these highly complex new tariffs (we have more than 2000 differents items) on our website, we are forced to suspend all shipments to Donald Trump's new strange country until further notice.

In all other countries the tariffs are paid to the carrier (who has the knowledge to act as a customs broker) when the buyer receives their order. Making the shipper pay the tariffs is nonsense because traders are not customs brokers and they don't have to deal with the crazy wishes of a foreign president who change their minds every week.

We are very sorry for our American customers who do not support Donald Trump's policies.
