FAQs
ORDERING & PAYMENT
Do you have rush service available?
What payment methods are accepted?
Can I order without payment?
Will I be subjected to any fees?
There is a tiny possibility of an additional shipping charge. This is extremely rarely the case. If however you live in a very rural area within the mainland area of Canada or the United States, shipping could be significantly more, and we will chat with you prior to shipping. This is also true for places on islands like Hawaii where it costs a small fortune to ship to.
The only other possibility is if you provide us with an improper shipping address, or fail to retrieve your parcel from either the postal system or the courier, should you not be available at the time of delivery. In this case, the courier/post office holds the parcel for quite some time before sending it back return to sender at OUR cost. This cost will be transferred to you. This is exceedingly rare and in over a decade of shipping, we have only had this happen 4 times.
I placed an order but I need more! HELP!
Yes! If your order has not been labelled for shipping (you are sent shipping info once it is to the email address you used when you checked out), simply place a secondary (or third, fourth, fifth, etc!) order and choose the "pick up" shipping option. We will see this and automatically flag it for shipping combined with another order. We have customers utilize this every single week, and it works very well. We are happy to accommodate it.
BUT, please ensure your order has not yet shipped. Please check your email for a shipping confirmation, or log into your account, click Orders and check the status in the top right corner of the order. If it's shipped, it will say "Fulfilled" and is no longer eligible for this free service.

Do you ship internationally?
Do you offer free shipping?
Can I provide my own shipping label?
In October, Canada Post offers up free small business shipping for one modest sized package every Tuesday. We encourage you to make the most out of his program and any other program like it to reduce your shipping charges.
If you are providing your own Canada Post shipping label, you can use this information for your label:
From/return address:
Bright Swan
PO Box 97
Parry Sound, ON
P2A 2X2
Use YOUR phone number in the contact information for both shipper and receiver.
The parcel size for vinyl transfers is rarely larger than:
3.5kg, 39 x 36 x 2cm.
Can I pick up from you instead?
Please be aware, Bright Swan is an online store and no longer has a warehouse for entrance for pickup. We have a pick up location at hour home, and we live at an active marina. During the spring, summer and autumn months, there are vehicles moving about constantly and three active dogs that live on the property that are off-leash. Therefore, watch for cars, kids, animals, trailers, and doggy wiggle butts.
