Smythe Canada buying agent
This article is independent and not affiliated with Smythe. Trademarks belong to their respective owners. We are not an authorized dealer.
Smythe pieces sold in Canada are often easier to find on a Canadian site than abroad. Canada Buying Agent buys from the retailer you choose. We are independent of Smythe.
Smythe is the Toronto label Andrea Lenczner and Christie Smythe started in 2004, still known first for women's blazers. The Canadian site is shopsmythe.com, priced in CAD, and Holt Renfrew has carried the line for years. Send the size chart, not only a US or UK size guess. Blazers are easier to ship than coats but still need a clean fold. We are not Smythe. If the size is gone, we stop. You approve the USD total before we buy.
From a Canadian checkout to our warehouse
Canadian sites often expect a domestic card, a local billing address, or a postal code inside Canada. Those checks fail for a shopper sitting in another country. Canada Buying Agent pays the domestic checkout after you approve USD lines. The seller ships to our warehouse in Canada. We inspect the box against your order page. If a promo ends or a bundle changes, we stop and write the new total. We do not quietly pay a higher price than the one you approved.
Service fee and the two payments
The service fee is published on pricing. We apply it when we write your order page. You see item totals and the service fee in USD before the first payment. International shipping is not guessed on this page. After the goods are at our warehouse, we weigh them and write a second USD total. Planning aids, not final bills, sit on the shipping calculator. Enter the price you saw in CAD. We convert the working total to USD. Tax added at Canadian checkout is part of the charged amount we reflect.
Combine sellers, then ship once
A coat from one Canadian shop and books from another do not need two international labels. Ask us to hold pieces at the warehouse. We combine them when the products and the paperwork allow it. Glass maple bottles, liquids, and lithium batteries may still need their own handling. Fragile jewelry and bulky furniture can force a separate carton. Service fee rules stay on pricing. Rough weight bands are on the shipping calculator. Final shipping is the weighed parcel, written in USD, using the CAD shelf prices only as the reference you entered.
Details that save a rejected order
Canada uses about 120 volts and the same flat plugs as the United States. A dryer or kettle that is fine in Toronto can be wrong in a 220 volt home. Tell us the destination voltage before you approve a powered item. Winter coats are bulky, and fur or shearling on a hood may be restricted at your border. Chocolate and maple candy soften in heat. Mention that if the goods will sit before the second payment. We buy only the item you approved, matched to the listing that day.
