Shipping charges
Shipping charges vary according to the weight and number of packages in your order, as well as the delivery address. We can only determine the shipping charges on the day your order is ready to leave our warehouse.
For deliveries within Quebec, add 15% of the subtotal, or a minimum of $15.
A surcharge may apply for deliveries to remote regions, the Maritimes or Western Canada.
There are no shipping charges for customers who wish to pick up their purchase at our store, located at 4118 Industriel Blvd., Sherbrooke, Quebec J1L 2S6.

Products designed at your request and according to specific specifications cannot be returned.
For hygiene reasons, dolls, plush toys, puppets, weighted products, clothing and robotic animals cannot be returned.
If, within 30 days, you are not completely satisfied with one of our products (other than the exceptions listed above), we will do everything we can to make sure you are happy with your purchase. For hygiene reasons, we do not accept returns of unsealed products. To return an item, please call our customer service team at 819 340-1193 or email us at info@cdsboutique.com to obtain a return authorization number. IMPORTANT: we will not accept any return without this number. You must then carefully package the product and return it to us at your own expense, along with a copy of the invoice, the reason for the return and the return authorization number. A handling fee of 10% of the product value will be charged for returns. Once we receive the merchandise in perfect condition, we will issue a credit note, or a refund if you paid by credit card.
Back orders
Back orders
If a product is not available when your order is delivered, we will send it to you as soon as it becomes available. These products and their delivery charges will be billed separately. If you wish to cancel the order for this product, you must do so as soon as you receive your initial order to avoid receiving it in the meantime.
Damaged goods
Damaged goods
Once the merchandise leaves our warehouse in good condition with the carrier, we are no longer responsible for it. When you receive your order, it is very important to check the condition of the box and its contents. If the box appears damaged, you may refuse the delivery. If you decide to accept it anyway, ask the driver to note the damage in their system. If the products are damaged when you open the box, it is your responsibility to call us within 48 hours of delivery. After that, the carrier may refuse to pay compensation. You then have up to 3 weeks to complete your claim. To limit any inconvenience to you, we will handle the claim with the carrier. In all cases, you must keep the shipping box for inspection. If a product is missing or there is an error in your order, you must call us within 2 weeks. After that, claims will be refused.
Warranty
