Quantity limits may apply in relation to orders for certain products. We reserve the right to refuse at any time, without prior notice, orders exceeding a certain number of authorized products.
Order Process
The order process of the Platforms involves adding items to a shopping cart (availability not guaranteed until order confirmation), proceeding to checkout as a guest or registered user, reviewing and confirming your order details (including delivery, personal, and payment information), and finally placing the order. For guest orders, we may still create an account on our internal systems to record your purchase(s).
In the case of an order being placed through the Client Relations Center or Remote Boutique, our ambassador will guide you through the steps above and verbally ask you to confirm the details of your order.
We will refuse, cancel and terminate orders at any time if we have reasonable grounds. For example, if there is an ongoing dispute concerning payment of a prior order or if we suspect, in our sole discretion, that you have engaged in (i) fraudulent activities; (ii) the import of product activities which we have not intended; or (iii) have otherwise violated these Conditions of Sale.
Personalized Services
Personalization services (for example, engraving or hot stamping) may be available on a selection of products.
We will refuse acceptance of any order for personalized products that contain language that is objectionable, unlawful or contrary to our policies. You are responsible for ensuring that any wording you provide for personalizing products is correct.
Orders for personalized products or products made to your bespoke specifications cannot be cancelled and cannot be returned to us for exchange or refund (except where defective) and are considered final upon receipt of a written Acknowledgement of Order. This does not affect your consumer rights under the law.
Prices, Taxes and Shipping Costs
All prices shown or quoted by the applicable Sales Channels are in Canadian Dollars unless otherwise stated and exclude sales tax, shipping costs and other taxes unless otherwise stated.
The final price in applicable currency and including sales or other taxes, and any shipping costs, will be displayed in your shopping cart or confirmed to you after you enter or confirm your delivery address and select your shipping options.
We reserve the right to modify prices and delivery costs at any time without prior notice. The price of a product or services and delivery costs indicated at the time we provide you with a Confirmation of Order & Shipment, will be honoured by us unless the product or service has been incorrectly priced in error.
We take reasonable care that the prices of products and delivery costs are correct when the relevant information is communicated to you via the Sales Channels. However, it is possible that, despite our reasonable efforts, some of the products offered or shipping and handling costs may be incorrectly priced and/or applicable laws have changed that may impact taxes associated with your order. If any of the products or any delivery costs are incorrectly priced and/or a different tax applies, we will contact you as soon as possible to reconfirm the order and new amounts. If we are unable to contact you using the contact details you have provided during the order process, we will cancel the order and notify you in writing. If we mistakenly accept and process your order where a pricing or delivery cost error occurs, we may cancel the order and refund you any sums you have paid.
Please note that changes to applicable law between the date on which your order is placed and the date on which you are sent a written Confirmation of Order & Shipment may result in changes to the taxes, duties or tariffs associated with your order. If the resulting change is an increase in the taxes, duties or tariffs that you are charged, we will contact you and ask that you reconfirm your order.

You expressly authorize us to perform security checks, where we deem necessary, to transmit or to obtain information (including any updated information) about you to or from third parties, including but not limited to your payment card details, to authenticate your identity, validate your payment card, obtain an initial payment card authorization, and authorize individual purchase transactions.
Where we offer partial or full prepayment as an advance payment method to reserve or pre-order a product or service, the prepayment amount will be disclosed in writing with your order and taken immediately following the placement of your order. We will reserve your product or service for the period specified in your order after which we reserve the right to sell the reserved product or service. Where you use a payment card or any instant or early capture payment solution offered on the Platforms as a payment method, the full amount of your purchase may be taken immediately or blocked on your payment method following the placement of your order.
Prepayment shall not impact any of your legal rights under these Conditions of Sale. Once your order is shipped, you will be sent a Confirmation of Order and Shipment.

You will have the opportunity to acknowledge and agree to the finance provider’s terms and conditions before confirming the finance option as your method of payment. Note that any selected product(s) and/or service(s) will be held for a limited period of time to permit you to complete the financing process and will be released if you fail to complete the purchase within the time limits.

We do not charge a fee for bank wire transfers, however, some financial institutions may charge a fee for using a bank wire transfer. The order will not be processed until the payment has been received and confirmed by us by e-mail. Please be advised that payments by wire transfer require additional processing through our ambassador and that there might be an additional waiting period before a product or service can be released depending on the value of the product or service ordered. If your wire transfer payment is not credited into our bank account within seven (7) days after you have placed your order, your order will be cancelled.
Acknowledgement of Order
Once your order is placed you will receive a written Acknowledgement of Order (confirming the details of your order, the order reference number and these Conditions of Sale). This Acknowledgement of Order is not an acceptance of your order.
Confirmation of Order & Shipment
Upon shipment of your order, we will send you a Confirmation of Order & Shipment in writing (by e-mail or otherwise). This Confirmation of Order & Shipment constitutes our acceptance of your order and indicates the existence of a binding sales contract. You also will receive an invoice by e-mail. If you have chosen to collect your order in a boutique, the invoice will be shared by e-mail after collection.
We reserve the right not to accept your order for any reason at our discretion. Such non-acceptance may result, for example, from the fact that the product ordered is out of stock or that we are unable to obtain authorisation for your payment or that you do not meet the terms of eligibility above.
Shipping Policy
We only accept orders for delivery to Canada. We do not ship to certain addresses, such as hotels, military, certain restricted areas, pick-up points, freight forwarders or PO boxes. Boutique pick-up may be offered, free of charge, to certain locations. We will inform you when the product is ready for pick-up at the boutique. Only the person who placed the order is authorised to collect the purchased item. To collect your order, you will be required to present a valid photo ID (passport, driving licence, or ID card) and your order collection e-mail. The name on the ID must match the name on the order.
If you order several products, we will ship the order only once all products are available (unless we communicate to you that there will be partial shipments).
Delivery
We will use reasonable efforts to ensure delivery by the carrier within the estimated delivery time from the date of our written Confirmation of Order & Shipment except if your purchase relates to a product or service that we have explained to you will take additional time to deliver, for example in the case of products or services that we personalize or produce to your specifications.
When estimating your delivery time, please allow time for credit approval, address verification, security checks and order processing. Please note that delivery is always subject to receiving your full payment.

We will require a signature by you or an adult at the delivery address (unless arranged by you otherwise), to confirm the delivery of each product, at which point risk and responsibility for your purchased goods passes to you. If you have specified a recipient who is not you for delivery purposes (for example, as a gift), then you understand and accept that evidence of a signature by such recipient (or at that delivery address) is evidence of delivery and fulfilment of the sales contract and transfer of responsibility to the recipient in the same way as if the product had been delivered to you. We reserve the right to deliver products only to the person who is the intended recipient of the order as stated on the label of the parcel and to request ID check for verification purposes at the time of delivery for certain categories of products.
If delivery of products is delayed by an event outside our control, we will inform you as soon as possible and will use reasonable efforts to minimise the effect of the delay. If we do not deliver within thirty (30) days from the date of the written Confirmation of Order & Shipment or any other time limit as indicated by us, you may contact us to cancel the relevant order and we will refund you any payments made for any products which you have not received as your sole remedy.
