Buying Products

Sign In / Sign Up

If you are not already signed in you will be prompted to enter your username and password. If you have not already signed up, you will be asked to do so. This will require that you provide some personal information such as your name and email address.

Handling Time

Payment Options

We accept payment by Visa, MasterCard and American Express (AMEX). Canada Post commercial customers can also pay by account. If you have bought products online previously and stored your credit card information, that credit card will be available to you. If you are using a new credit card, you can save the details by selecting Add to saved cards before you select Continue.

Note: All purchase prices are displayed in Canadian dollars. For international customers, the appropriate exchange rate will be applied by your credit card company or bank at the moment it processes the online transaction.

Credit Card Verification Number

This 3- or 4-digit code (located on the back of your Visa or MasterCard or on the front of your AMEX card) is a security feature for “card not present” transactions. It is a way of verifying that the card is legitimate and actually on hand during online transactions.

Special Offer Codes

Discounts and promotions that we advertise online or by mail, or offer by product or total order include a special offer code. If you have a code, enter it in the designated box when you place your order and select Apply Code to receive your discount.

Once you have placed your order you will receive an order confirmation by email. You will receive a second email once we ship your order and process your payment.

Estimated Delivery Time
