SHIPPING POLICY
Australian Orders
Standard Delivery is complimentary on all orders over AUD$150 delivered within Australia. All orders under AUD$150 will be charged a flat shipping rate of AU$10 for standard delivery and $25 for express delivery.
All orders require a signature upon delivery. If someone is not on the premises to sign and receive your order, it will be taken to the nearest post office or courier depot for collection.
*Delivery times are based on Metro areas, please allow an additional 1-2 days for regional deliveries.
**Please be aware that Dispatch and Shipping times can be longer over seasonally busy periods, such as Christmas, and promotional periods, and delivery times cannot be guaranteed.
International Orders
All international orders are processed within 48 hours and are sent using DHL Express courier services. Delivery generally takes 3-7 business days. Shipping times are based on our best estimate, however, delays can occur in transit or due to holds at your local custom office, so it may take longer for an order to be delivered.
Shipping costs are calculated at checkout when you enter your shipping address. If you do not see your country listed at checkout, we do not currently ship to that location.
Once your order has been collected by the couriers, we cannot be held responsible for any delays that may occur. Please allow for extended shipping times when ordering during busy seasonal or promotional periods.
If you notice a delay with your order, we are happy to provide further assistance and can lodge an enquiry on your behalf. You may also need to lodge your own enquiry, and if you wish to dispute a delivery or a delay, it is up to the customer to do so with DHL.
All deliveries require a signature upon receipt.
Please note that we are unable to ship to PO Boxes.
Please feel free to contact our customer service team if you have any concerns or require further information.
DUTIES AND TAXES
All international orders are subject to the duties and taxes of the country to which they are shipped. This charge will be calculated at checkout and payment is required to complete your order.
Duties and taxes will be based on the value of the order and the tax-free threshold (if it exists) for goods imported. These charges depend on your country’s import legislation.
