Policies and FAQs:
COUPONS
For every dollar spent in store or online, before taxes, you earn a point! After 300 points you are issued a $20 coupon on your account. Coupons never expire! You can redeem 1 (one) coupon per transaction. We reserve the right to limit the number of coupons earned on a single item. Purchases $6000 and over earn a maximum of 20 loyalty coupons ($400).
MACHINE PURCHASES
We are dealers for both Bernina Canada & Brother Canada. Every machine sale at East Coast Quilt co comes with a FREE machine orientation lesson!
HOW LONG BEFORE MY ORDER IS SHIPPED?
It will take us 1-3 days to get your order out the door!
SHIPPING:
Ah, a necessary evil! We do not attempt to make money with our shipping charges & in fact are held hostage by our carrier which is CANADA POST. Shipping is a magic combination of weight and dimension and the cost of it, especially from Newfoundland, can be gobsmacking! We will ship the cheapest way possible in an effort to make it a win/win situation; so if we can slide it into an envelope & ship it as lettermail we will.
However, most parcels go by Expedited Post with a tracking number. Once it goes into CP's hands it is all up to them so if it is running late you just have to sit tight. And if it goes astray, we'll get on them but again you just have to sit tight until we work it out. That being said, in our dealing with CP over the last 20 years (in this business & previous ones) they have NEVER lost a parcel! And that is pretty darn amazing!
PLEASE NOTE: There are several locations across Canada designated as 'remote areas' by Canada Post and, unfortunately, these locations do not qualify for our shipping rates as posted. If we discover you are one of locations while we are processing your order, we will reach out to you prior to shipping with a revised shipping quote and work out a solution to get the goods to you.
CLASS CANCELLATION POLICY:
If you cannot attend a class and it is 7 or more days before class, you will receive a store credit for 75% of the value of the class with a 30-day expiry date. If you cancel less than 7 days before class, you will NOT receive a refund or store credit. No credit or refund will be given for a "no show" in class regardless of reason. So please ensure that you are able to attend before signing up. East Coast Quilt Co reserves the right to cancel classes/events for any reason. If this happens, you will be refunded your full class fee.
