Australia Post Services
All Australia Post shipping options are collected from us roughly 1:20-1:45m (AEST). Around 12:30pm we cut off in printing and processing new orders to ship via Australia Post the same day.
Aramex Couriers
All Aramex Courier shipping options are collected from us twice a day, at both 10:00-10:30am and again roughly 1:20-1:45pm (AEST). Around 12:30pm we cut off in printing and processing new orders to ship via Aramex Couriers for dispatch.
E-GO.com.au
E-go is an economy courier service, and one should not expect them to break any records. They pick up ad-hoc when we load up orders for them, and at times pick up the following day. One should not expect miracles and only use E-go when time is not critical.
Toll Fast
Our priority/express across town shipping supplier is Toll Fast. Orders using Toll Fast have the highest priority and are continually processed throughout the day. However currently it is not given as an option as we have some coding issues to work out, so if you do want an item faster than normal, it is best to order what you want selecting Aramex as your shipping provider, and once placed, call us immediately to discuss shipping the order with Toll Fast and the difference (if any) to be settled after the order has shipped and amount calculated.
Post Charges
Our shopping cart calculates your shipping charge based on the weight and size (volumetrics) of your order. You can go into "MY CART" at any time and see the estimated shipping cost using any of the shipping options available - and play with adding and removing items to maximize on the shipping costs.
The carriers available for you to choose from are: Australia Post using E-Parcel, E-Parcel Express, Regular Satchels, Express Satchels, Aramex and E-Go Couriers.
Our cart will also tell you the size box it estimates your order fitting in to, and how much space is left in this box before you bump into another weight bracket, helping you to maximise the bang of your shipping buck.
Tracking
When your order is sent with Au Post E-Parcel or E-go, you'll automatically be emailed the tracking information. This means you can go onto the Au Post or E-go website at any time and see where your order is at on it's way to you. If your order was sent with Couriers Please! or in an Express Satchel, you can find the tracking information in the order details by going into your "My Account".
Signature on Delivery
Currently the Australia Post site defaults to no signature required for delivery, so the postie will leave your parcel if you are not home. If you would like a signature to be required on delivery, please add a note in the comments and we will select this on booking for you.
Pick Ups
Order pickups are currently disabled as we move warehouses. When we have a new order pickup location and service arranged, this option will be enabled again
"Pick Up" is offered as a shipping option as you process your order through the shipping cart. You can select to pay cash (only) on pick up, or to prepay with bank deposit or paypal/credit card. Either way you will receive an email to let you know when your order is ready for collection.
Faulty, defect, or mis-shipped Items
If you have received the wrong product or faulty goods, contact us via email, within 5 days of receipt of your order. We will work with you to remedy the situation as quickly as possible.
Exchanges
If you have changed your mind about your purchase, contact us within 5 days of receipt of your order to arrange an exchange. Items for exchange must be sent back in unused, as delivered condition. When returning an item for exchange, you will be asked to:
