  <body-html>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Payment&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;All prices on this website are in $US. A currency converter is provided for your convenience, to be used as a guideline only.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;All transactions are secure and encrypted, and we never store your credit card information.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We accept Visa and Mastercard through our secure server or by phone or fax. For your security we recommend you do not send credit card information through email.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We also accept American Express, Discover, Visa and Mastercard through PayPal. You can also pay using your Paypal balance. Sorry, we are unable to accept Paypal payments by e-check.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You do not need a Paypal account to send credit card payment using Paypal.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sales Tax&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;There is no sales tax on purchases being shipped outside of Canada.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Within Canada &amp;#8211; &lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;GST&lt;/span&gt;/&lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;HST&lt;/span&gt; will be added to your total invoice (item plus shipping).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Within Ontario &amp;#8211; 5% &lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;GST&lt;/span&gt; and 8% &lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;PST&lt;/span&gt; will be added to your total invoice (item plus shipping).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;PST&lt;/span&gt;/&lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;GST&lt;/span&gt;/&lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;HST&lt;/span&gt; is calculated based on the &lt;em&gt;shipping&lt;/em&gt; address for all Canadian orders.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Shipping&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Orders are generally shipped within two business days.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We personally pack and ship your purchases with great care so that your package arrives safely. You might say we pack the way we would like to receive all of our own purchases. We do not ship crystal in bubble envelopes &amp;#8211; only in boxes &amp;#8211; to ensure that your item arrives in the same condition as when it left.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We are always happy to combine shipping costs when two or more items are shipped together. Shipping costs are automatically calculated at checkout, based on shipping weight of each item, when you place your order. If you order multiple items and the shipping cost charged is incorrect, any shipping overage paid will be refunded to you once the actual combined shipping charges are calculated.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Please note that due to size and weight, some items must be shipped separately.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Shipping within Canada&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;All packages within Canada are shipped by Canada Post Expedited Parcel with tracking and delivery confirmation. Canada Post Xpresspost Parcel is also available. Insurance is always included at no additional charge.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Shipping to the US&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;All packages to the US are shipped by Canada Post Expedited Parcel with tracking and delivery confirmation. Insurance is always included at no additional charge.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Please note that shipping from Canada to the US by Expedited Parcel can take up to 2 weeks (10 business days) to arrive, as packages can take up to a week to clear US customs.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Canada Post Xpresspost Parcel is also available, and generally takes a week (5 business days) to arrive.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Other shipping options are available upon request. If you require faster delivery, please &lt;a href=&quot;mailto:info@purpleunicorncollectibles.com&quot;&gt;contact us&lt;/a&gt; for an alternative shipping quote to your destination.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Buyers outside of Canada are responsible for any applicable duties or taxes charged by your country. Customs documents will reflect the actual purchase price, excluding shipping cost. Please do not ask us to undervalue the shipment or to declare your purchase a gift.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;International Shipping&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We are happy to ship worldwide, but as international shipping costs vary greatly by destination we cannot always provide flat shipping rates on our website. Please &lt;a href=&quot;mailto:info@purpleunicorncollectibles.com&quot;&gt;contact us&lt;/a&gt; for a shipping quote before purchasing.&lt;/p&gt;
