RETURN SHIPPING COSTS

The buyer will be responsible for paying shipping costs for returning items unless the issue is an error on Telescopes Canada's part or manufacturing defect, or previously agreed upon.

 

SHIPPING REFUND

DUTIES, TARIFFS AND TAXES ON INTERNATIONAL SHIPMENTS

Telescopes Canada is not responsible for estimating or paying any costs associated with shipment of goods outside of Canada and cannot refund these costs.  It is the customer's responsibility to know the import policies and regulations of their respective country or territory.  These costs are assessed and billed by the customer's government upon import and Telescopes Canada has no visibility or control over this process.  If we provide an estimate of costs of import, it is simply a rough estimate based on experience and we hold no responsibility for costs which differ from this estimate.

Risk of loss and title for items purchased from Telescopes Canada pass to the seller upon delivery by the carrier or pick up.  Telescopes Canada insures deliveries through the shipping carrier.
