**** CHANGE AS OF JAN 1st, 2026** ADDITIONAL PAYMENT MUST BE MADE FOR CUSTOMS/DUTIES PRIOR TO SHIPMENT: 

  • $30 CAD flat rate shipping to the US 
  • FREE SHIPPING on ORDERS OVER $300 CAD
  • *****PLEASE NOTE***** as of January 1, 2026 a SECOND PAYMENT for custom/duties will be invoiced to all AMERICAN customers subsequent to purchase which equates to approximately 30% of the order cost
  • How it works (ONLY FOR AMERICAN ORDERS):
    • Place your order and pay as per usual 
    • After your order is placed, I will input your items into an app called "Zonos Prepay", this is Canada Post's calculator for customs & duties that MUST BE PAID PRIOR to shipment to the USA. The custom/duties are calculated individually based on the country of origination of EACH ITEM. Given the nature of my secondhand business, everything I sell has a different origination. Hence why I am unable to determine the custom/duty total until AFTER your purchase. 
    • After I have calculated the customs, I will send you a screenshot of the  Zonos calculation so you can verify the total. 
    • I will send you an invoice via Shopify or Paypal for the customs amount. Custom/duties are the responsibility of the CUSTOMER to pay. Once I received your payment, I will pay via the Zonos app. 
    • Once your payment for the customs is submitted to Middle Child Vintage, I will ship out your order and provide a tracking number.
