Payment Terms

Prices in US Dollars are valid only on orders to the USA. Prices in Canadian Dollars are valid only on orders to Canada. Taxes charged to Canadian customers. Please see the item description on our site for a breakdown of taxes charged to you. We are not responsible for any taxes charged to you for shipments outside of Canada.


At this time we do not accept orders on our website for customers outside of North America.

Customers from the USA or overseas pay NO CANADIAN SALES TAX on any purchase shipped to a destination outside of Canada. Some customers using a US-based credit card may have a small "Foreign Transaction Fee" applied to their credit card billing statement by the issuing bank, which is beyond our control. If you have a credit card which is based in the United States, prior to ordering you should check with your card issuer to find out any fees involved with dealing with a store in Canada. The amount charged by your credit card issuer can be as high as 3% in some rare instances, and is completely beyond our control.

Payment by cheque, money order, draft, VISA, or MasterCard. VISA and MasterCard purchases are charged directly in US Funds for Americans, Canadian Funds for Canadians. We cannot accept Visa or MasterCard credit cards which are issued outside of North America, or those which are issued by an instituation which resides outside of North America. Customers in the United States sending US Postal Money Orders must send the 'PINK' ones, the green 'Valid only in the US and possessions' are NOT valid for us.

Orders for bullion cannot be paid by credit card or personal cheque, and must be paid for by certified funds payment (ie: bank draft, wire transfer, money order, etc.). A higher shipping charge applies to bullion orders. Because bullion orders cannot be paid for using a credit card, you cannot place a bullion order online. Orders for bullion must be phoned-in. Payment terms for bullion will be outlined during your phone call. In general, payments for bullion orders will be required within between 24 and 72 hours of confirming the order, as outlined with our representative on the phone. All bullion orders will be required to have a deposit placed to secure the transaction. This deposit will be refunded once payment is received. Failure to send payment for a bullion order will result in forfeiture of the deposit, and any fees or costs incurred by the difference in the value of the bullion confirmed will be absorbed by the buyer.

Orders submitted by Credit Card are processed onsite, and are first charged as the first part of order processing. Due to security policy and fraud prevention with Visa International and MasterCard International, we MUST ship to the verifiable billing name and address as it appears on the cardholders' statement. We will take the proper steps necessary to ensure information is correct.

If any verifiable information is not correct, we will need to contact you to obtain the correct information. This WILL delay your order accordingly. Should we feel that any order is being placed to circumvent our policy, it will be cancelled.

Payment by cash for any order for shipments by mail is not accepted. Cash is accepted for payment in-store, in-person, for individuals (non-corporations) only.

We do not accept American Express, Discover, Billpoint, or PayPal (for website orders). We absolutely do not accept PayPal credit/debit/MasterCards (those starting with 5581).

Unless otherwise specified, we do NOT accept credit cards from outside North America. We reserve the right to refuse to accept a credit card for any reason.

All cheques must clear. Please allow at least 4 weeks for the cheque to clear [Canadians, allow atleast 2-3 weeks for clearance] from the date we receive it.

Security, fraud, and anti-money laundering reviews may delay the processing of, and your receipt of, your order, at any time.
