System Requirements

Our goal at costco.ca is to create an on-line shopping experience that is exciting, easy, and secure, from the minute you go on-line at our site to the time you receive the order at your door. To ensure this, there are a couple of system-related issues we need to explain to make sure your computer and our computers work properly together.
