Notice to US residents

Since 2025 August 29, Donald Trump has signed a decree requiring you to pay a 5% to 50% 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 before the shipping of your order. Since we are unable to program these highly complex new tariffs (we have more than 2000 differents items) on our website, we will send you an additional invoice with the amount of the tariff we will have to pay.

You will have to pay this new invoice before we will ship your order. If you don't agree with the new invoice we will cancel your order and refund you the full amount of your order including the shipping and taxes.

We can send you an estimate of the customs fees to pay before you place your order. Simply send us an email with the desired items and we will respond as soon as possible.

We are sorry but this is the only way we can ship your order.
