We Always Sell New Items Unless Stated Otherwise

We follow common practices in the music retail industry in that we often open original packing sent from our manufacturers and suppliers. This is the case because our technicians need to set up and test for Quality Assurance or because items are produced in limited numbers and may be set up for display purposes. When we ship orders we re-pack in the original packaging when possible. Items that have been refurbished or were returns go through our inspections and will be clearly indicated. Our 100% Satisfaction Guarantee ensures that you are satisfied with every purchase.

Shipping and Pick-Up

We only ship to Canadian addresses. To keep things easy and to avoid surprise extra costs, we don’t charge shipping or handling on orders over $99 (before tax and shipping calculation). There are a few reasonable exceptions like very large or heavy items as well as shipping to remote areas. We also offer Curbside Pick-up and pick up in-store.

Returns and Exchanges

You may exchange or return for full refund items within 30 days if in unused new condition and in original packaging (100% Satisfaction Guarantee).

Layaways (in-store only)

Cosmo Music offers a layaway program for those who want to secure the hold of a desired item and/or make monthly instalments when a complete upfront payment cannot be made. Cosmo Music retains the item on hold and only releases the item once payment in full is received or the payment plan is complete.

• The minimum down payment/deposit required to place an item on layaway is 20% (minimum does not apply to print music)
• The maximum length of time available to pay the full balance outstanding on the item purchased is 60 days. After 60 days has expired, the item will be returned to regular stock and sold. Once expired, the deposit is either forfeited or a reimbursement can be requested for the total amount paid less a 20% restocking fee

Special Orders (in-store only)

Cosmo Music’s large purchasing power allows us to buy almost anything you can imagine (provided we are a licensed dealer of the product) and we’ve even created a quick and easy process to make it as effortless as possible. Once items arrive, you will be contacted by your salesperson to come and pick it up or even arrange to have it shipped. Easy as 1-2-3!

• The minimum down payment/deposit is required to place an item on special order is 20% (minimum does not apply to print music). If the item is a "custom order" (customized for the individual) and/or is not easily sellable if returned, 50% down payment is required and is non-refundable
• Special Order requires a 20% refundable down payment
• Custom Order requires a 50% non-refundable down payment
• The maximum length of time that a special ordered item will be held once it arrives is 30 days. After 30 days has expired the item will be returned to regular stock and sold or returned to the supplier. After the hold period has expired deposits may be used towards the purchase of another product, or the same product if still in stock
• Regular return privileges apply (see return policy) unless the item is a custom order (a product arranged as a custom order are not returnable)
