Shipping

All orders are shipped from our store in Vancouver, BC, Canada.

For Canadian orders, GST/HST and PST are applicable based on your province or territory.

For US and International orders, international taxes, customs, and duties, if any, are paid by the customers to their post offices or couriers when they receive their orders.

A flat rate of $14.99 (CAD) applies for each shipment within Canada and to the US. (For some oversized items, product description may specify additional S&H fee.)

Free shipping is available for in-stock orders over $300 (CAD) within Canada and the US. For orders below $300, the standard flat-rate shipping fee applies.

For international shipping to countries other than Canada and the United States, shipping rates are usually much higher as they are calculated according to the size and the weight of the order. Please also be aware that for international pre-orders, shipping costs are not invoiced until the order is ready for shipment. You are encouraged to contact us to get a shipping quote before placing an international order.

Your collectibles are valuable, so we want to make sure they’re delivered safely. That’s why we require someone to be there to receive the package. If you're not home, the carrier will either try again or leave a notice for you to pick it up at a nearby Canada Post office or UPS Access Point. This way, your package is secure and won’t be left unattended.

Standard shipping options do not include shipping insurance. However, you may choose to purchase shipping insurance at checkout for items valued at up to $400 CAD in total (Coverage for item damages & loss occurred during transit only. Parcel thefts and damaged packaging are not covered). You may also choose to purchase additional insurance on your own.

Please note that damaged or lost packages are the responsibility of shipping carriers. Since we have no control over how carriers handle your packages once they leave our facility, Hobby Bee Canada cannot be held responsible for damages or loss incurred during shipment.
