Refund Policy

At BBCR we work tirelessly to source only the best equipment on the market when it comes to coffee. Whether you buy a brewer or an accessory you can be sure that it is the best available and the same equipment we use ourselves.

As a result of our exceptional products, we trust that you are happy with your purchase of coffee, brewing equipment, supplies and other coffee related products from BBCR.

Unfortunately we cannot accept returns on any coffee or equipment.  However, we will offer exchanges on equipment should the item be broken in shipment. 

We ask you to read all descriptions and make your purchase in good faith, meaning that you are not purchasing with the intention of returning: this is devastating to any small business like ours.

Please email us with any comments, questions and complaints as we are confident that we can work something out. Should you wish to exchange an item to us, after discussing your concerns with our qualified staff, please note that you will be required to ship the item to us in its original package, free from water, at your own cost. We highly recommend insuring the shipment, as you will be responsible for the package until we receive it in good condition. Also note that should you wish to exchange an item after you have used it and have gained approval from our team, you will be assessed a 25% restocking fee.

Please be aware that much of the equipment we sell is ONLY intended for home use. By using it for a purpose other than the one it was intended for; you will void the manufacturer's warranty. If equipment you purchase from BBCR fails prematurely please contact us.

Defective items must be returned with all original parts, accessories, manuals, etc., and must be re-packaged in the original retail display box. We are unable to accept returns without all of these pieces. 

To return a defective item, you must contact us via phone or email info@bbcr.ca to obtain a Return Merchandise Authorization Number. You must ship returns via a courier or mail service that provides insurance and tracking. You must also provide BBCR with the tracking number. You will be responsible for paying the shipping costs for returning merchandise to us.  If a returned item is lost or destroyed in transit, your account will not be credited for the return, and you will be responsible for obtaining reimbursement from the courier. Therefore we strongly recommend that you purchase insurance from the courier for returned items.

Please note: We cannot accept collect or postage-due return shipments, and are not responsible for uninsured packages that are lost in transit. We strongly suggest that you insure your package.

Upon receipt of your return merchandise in the above described condition, we will promptly process it.

Payment and cancellation policy

Please note that our e-commerce web site processes your payment immediately upon submission. In other words, as soon as you submit your order, your Visa or Mastercard will be debited the amount indicated on your receipt.

Orders can be cancelled at no cost to you (within 24 hours of the purchase) providing the item has not yet shipped. Please call or e-mail us as soon as possible if you decide to cancel an order, so that we can cancel shipment. Your credit card will be immediately credited when a cancelled item has not yet shipped.

If the item has shipped, you will be responsible for paying the shipping costs for returning the merchandise to us. When returning a cancelled order, you must ship via a courier that provides tracking, and provide us with the tracking number. If the item is lost or destroyed in transit, you will be charged for the item. Therefore it is recommended that you purchase insurance from the courier so that you can be reimbursed for an item if it is lost or destroyed in transit.

For items that are cancelled after they are shipped, your account will not be credited until we receive the returned item in good condition. Cancelled orders that have shipped must be returned unopened.

Our back order policy

If we are out of stock on an item that you ordered - whether it is merchandise or coffee - or policy is to hold the order and contact the customer about the delay. You can then decide to make substitutions or delete an item - we will not ship partial orders. On merchandise, we rely on our suppliers to tell us when an item ought to be back in stock - but we have no control over when it might actually arrive.
