How can I trust you?

While there are a number of scammers on the internet who claim to sell legal weed, we can assure you we aren’t one of them.

We have spent years building a solid reputation amongst medical patients and strongly support the use of medical marijuana. We understand the needs of medical patients that may have trouble purchasing their medicine from a dispensary for any number of reasons and believe they shouldn’t be forced to have to buy illegally on the streets.

We have made the decision to offer full access to our site to medical patients in canada so they may have safe access to their medicine at any time.

Please read our reviews or our trustpilot reviews

How does the AA-AAAA rating work?

If you’re new to the world of cannabis you might be asking yourself what the significance of ‘ aaaa ‘ is and why the prices are so high with strains claiming this rank. Aaaa is the highest ranked strains of cannabis currently trumping the long reign of the aaa strains recently.

The a-aaaa cannabis ranking system helps ensure that people understand what grade of quality the strain they are ordering.

If I have never tried a product before, is it a good idea to purchase bulk?

The answer is no. If you have never tried a product before we highly recommend you refrain from purchasing in bulk. It is best to try a smaller amount of the product first to see if you actually like it before committing to a bigger purchase. Otherwise you will be stuck with a lot of something you don’t like.

Just start adding products to the shop and once you are about to check out, there’s an option to create an account. The account is free. Alternatively, you can send us an email.

How do you package my shipment?

We understand that most people require discretion. So, we use generic bubble mailers to package items. We then vacuum seal and bubble wrap the contents for maximum discretion, protection and to seal in the freshness. There is nothing written on the outside of the envelope that would advertise that you are taking medical marijuana so no nosy neighbors would know it is anything other then a regular package from the post office.

Do you ship medical marijuana outside of Canada?

No. We never do and there are no exceptions to this. We only ship to canadian addresses.

Can I place larger orders than those listed on your site?

No. If you desire a larger quantity than what we have listed, you may want to consider placing multiple orders. Multiple orders are always available for you.

No. You cannot directly pick up your order from us. We only can only send your products through mail order at this time.

Can I order for my family or friends?

No, members may not order for their family members or friends. If your family or friend(s) wish to also get products, they need to go through our sign-up process and we will ship to them directly.

We do not allow members to share their accounts.

SHIPPING

How long does shipping take?

It all depends on your location in canada. We send all items via xpresspost. Under normal circumstances your package is expected to be delivered in two to three business days. If you live in a poorly connected rural location, occasionally it may take a day or two longer. Remember these are all estimated time frames as once it is in the couriers hands, sometimes schedule does not go accordingly. There are many things that might affect courier time like covid, weather conditions, and holiday seasons.

I have not received my tracking number.

We will email you your tracking number before its been scanned in at the post office. Until it has been scanned in, your tracking number will not be trackable on the post office’s website.


Please wait till the end of day and your tracking number should appear correctly. If it does not, please email: [email protected]

Please check your email closely. Once your order is shown completed and we have created a tracking number for your order. You will receive an email labeled "Note added to your ganja west order"

Why does my tracking # say electronic shipment received?

We create your tracking number in-house to provide you the most efficient service.

However your tracking number will always update by 7:30pm – 8pm eastern time ontarios that is when we drop off your package at the local post office. There will be times when tracking number will be updated at a later date even though it has gone through the courier system. Please give it some time to update.

Why is my tracking number invalid?

If you’re tracking your package on canada post’s website and it has not updated in some time, it’s most likely due to your package missing a scan, which is fairly common.

It can take up to 24 hours for tracking numbers to be updated with shipping carrier. If after 24 hours and the tracking still does not work, feel free to contact us at [email protected] or use our live chat from 8am pst – 6pm pst.

Status says successfully delivered but I never received it.

Here are 2 likely scenarios:

1. The postal worker put it in the wrong mailbox, or
2. What often happens is that a postal worker will scan in all the packages saying they were “successfully delivered” then spend that day and/or the next day delivering it.

If you do not get your package 2 days after the expected delivery date, let us know and we will file a trace with the post office. We will file an investigation which can take 5 business days to complete. If they can locate the package, they will ship it to you and you’ll get it a few days later. If it’s deemed “unrecoverable”, we will send you a 1x replacement free of charge (up to $125).


From post office

The investigation involves contacting the addressee to confirm delivery, or to better understand how they receive their mail and, as applicable, if they checked with the front desk, security or mail room at the receiving address to see if someone else accepted the item on their behalf; their community mail box for the item or parcel compartment key; around their property to see if the item was left in a safe location or in a mailbox attached to their home.

In rare cases, a delivery scan is entered into our system before the item is delivered. If you become aware that the addressee has received the item before we contact you, simply reply to this e-mail indicating the item has been received.”

My package hasn't arrived yet, what can I do?

If your package does not arrive2 days after the expected shipping carrier stated delivery date, contact us through email

We will then file an trace with shipping carrier in an attempt to locate your package

Once a trace has been filed it may take anywhere up to 5 business days, if the trace is successful the package will be enroute to you. However if the package cannot be located, we will send you a 1x replacement of up to $500.

We cannot issue refunds due to the lateness of the package as that is solely due to shipping carrier and is not within our control.

We are not responsible for lost or stolen packages once shipping carrier marks the tracking “delivered”.

We do not offer postage refunds if your order arrives late due to any postal issues.

My package is going to the wrong destination.

There could be a number of reasons, shipping carrier could have entered the wrong postal code as they see a significant amount of packages everyday

The information you provided us was incorrect, please double check your shipping information and make sure that the information provided is correct.

This may cause a delay in an additional 1-2 business days (note we do not issue refunds if you provide us with the wrong delivery address)

Shipping to Nunavut and Northern Quebec.

Unfortunately, we experience much higher % of postal thefts when shipping to northern quebec and nunavut. We cannot offer any delivery guarantees if you live in these areas and you will be ordering at your own risk. This means you will not receive a replacement package or refund if your package is lost or stolen.

The post office safe drop option.

Some customers ask for the safe drop delivery option. Please understand that if we do select this option that we can no longer ensure your product in the event of a loss.

However, we do continue to ensure and cover the “do not safe drop” delivery option.

Please let us know which delivery option you would like and we will be happy to send it the way you would like!

Is signature required?

Signature is not required but we do have the option for you. However if you wish to do so, we are not held liable once your tracking shows “delivered”.

Lost orders

Ganja west assumes no responsibility for lost orders due to:

Wrong address provided by the customer (including typos or auto-correct errors)
Customer change of address / residence
Theft after delivery
Package being rejected upon delivery (by doorman or other)

We no longer use a return address. Packages with incomplete/ incorrect addresses (missing unit #) will be undeliverable by canada post and not returned to us. No refunds or replacements will be given for this mistake.

Please make sure you enter in your correct address.
Contact us immediately for corrections before paying.

Why don't you ship on weekends?

At ganja west, safety and quality are paramount. We do not drop packages off to be shipped from friday to sunday as canada post does not move packages on weekends. We do this to avoid your package sitting in an uncontrolled warehouse over the weekend.

My shatter or budder turning into wax. Now what?

Please be advised that due to circumstances that are out of our control, such as summer heat, humidity and even time. There is always a risk that the shatter you ordered could turn to wax or budder by the time you receive it.

Unfortunately, shatter turning to wax budder is not uncommon when exposed to heat but it does not make your shatter any less safe or any less potent in any way whatsoever. In fact, the terpenes and aromatics will be more present if this happens and the flavor will actually be increased.

We do not offer any reimbursement or refunds if your shatter turns to budder or wax.

Warm weather edibles & concentrates

We keep all our edibles and concentrates refrigerated, during the warmer seasons there’s a chance your products will melt or separate during shipping, order at your own risk. Melted or partially melted edibles will not effect potency but can be harder to dose accurately. We suggest storing edibles and concentrates in the fridge, safely away from children and pets during warmer months.
