Shipping Policy

AVAILABILITY & DELIVERY

1. We aim to dispatch your order within 1-4 working days of receipt and it should be with you within 1 to 7 business days of dispatch Ontario or 3 to 10 business days for the rest of Canada. 
2. If a product is out of stock we will offer you a refund.
3. All descriptions, product images and weights are those of the original manufacture and are intended to give a general description of the goods. The weight to be shipped includes the weight of packaging for the goods.
4. Product images are for illustrative purposes only, and whilst representative of the product exact packaging detail may vary from time to time, subject to changes by the manufacturer. Equally, manufacturers occasionally change their recipes or item weight. Again, we strive to keep our pictures up to date but we do only use them for illustrative purposes. You will always receive the current product available to us at the time of your order.
5. If purchasing chilled items, these will be delivered separately. You will be supplied with an estimated delivery date, and subsequently a tracking number which will enable you to access accurate details of the delivery progress and status of your parcel online. You agree that either yourself or another person will be in to accept delivery of chilled items, and that The Great British Shop cannot be held responsible for chilled goods that spoil as a result of nobody being available to take delivery of the goods.
6. If purchasing chilled items and a parcel should arrive damaged, the driver will give you a document reporting the damage and may ask to stay and witness you open the box to check the contents. In this scenario, you must report it to The Great British Shop immediately and send The Great British Shop a copy of the papers.
7. We reserve the right to use whichever carrier is best suited to any unique delivery. We will always try to use the customer selected carrier, however in events where a carrier is facing delays, or has a considerably longer delivery time, we will use an equivalent service if available and provides faster delivery. This is especially true in December, we will always use the fastest service to ensure your order has the best chance of arriving before December 24th.
8. Our couriers are UPS, Canpar, Purolator, FedEx, Canada Post (PO Boxes) and Loomis. We cannot be held responsible for parcels once in their possession. 
9. We cannot be held responsible for delayed delivery once a parcel is taken by a courier. Storms, staff shortages and other factors are out of our control. All shipping times are estimates and not guarantees. Orders from December 1st typically see delays due to the high volume shipping season.
10. We cannot refund orders if they do not arrive by the estimated delivery date, regardless of which carrier has the parcel.
