Payment

All credit card payments are processed by PayPal, a leading online payment processor.

Credit card details are shared exclusively between yourself and our payment processor, PayPal merchant services.

Credit card details are never stored on this website and Britnell Books staff do not have access to your credit card information.

When you make a payment on this website your credit card details are sent directly to PayPal over an industry standard SSL/TLS encrypted connection.

In turn, PayPal gives us an instant notification about the status of the payment without actually sharing any credit card details.

Your credit card will be charged immediately upon placing your order. If it turns out that we cannot ship your order right away we'll be in touch to discuss details about the backorder or to offer a refund.

Shipping

All orders ship from our facility in Toronto, Ontario.

Presently we fill orders shipping to destinations in Canada.

Orders placed before 3:00pm (Eastern time) are typically shipped the same day. If we can't ship the same day then your order will be shipped on the next business day.

Your order will ship by Canpar courier when addressed to commercial or business addresses. Your order will ship by Canada Post when addressed to residential addresses or addresses in the Yukon Territory, Northwest Territories, or Nunavut.

You will receive an email notification as soon as your order has shipped.

Please contact us with your order number and we will send you the tracking number for your shipment.
