By placing an order for any of our products, you represent that you have read this policy and that you agree to and fully accept the terms of this policy. If you do not agree with or fully accept the terms of this policy, please do not place an order with us.

Delivery 

All orders will be processed and shipped as soon as possible. Once we have handed your order over to the carrier, you will receive a shipping confirmation by email. Our parcels are usually delivered within the below indicated shipping times. Orders placed on a Saturday, Sunday or public holiday will not be dispatched until the next working day. 


Delivery Charges

Our delivery charges are calculated and displayed on your screen when you place the order. 


Delays

If we are experiencing a high volume of orders, shipments may be delayed by a few days. Please allow additional days in transit for delivery. If there will be a significant delay in shipment of your order, we will contact you via email or telephone. We do not ship on Saturday, Sunday, or Local/Public Holidays.

Import duties and taxes

If you order goods on our website for delivery overseas, additional import duties and taxes may apply and will be charged once the order reaches the specified destination. Any additional charges for customs clearance should be borne by you. We have no control over these charges and cannot predict what they will be. If these charges are not paid, your order may be returned to us and we will not be able to refund the shipping charges.


There may also be charges for returning your order, which will be deducted from any refund amount. In certain situations, your order may be destroyed by customs if duties and taxes are not paid. In this case, we will not be able to refund the product or shipping charges for these reasons.


Please note that there may be restrictions on shipping to you in relation to certain items and order value. You may also be required to provide certain documentation to clear your order when it arrives in your destination country. This may vary from country to country, and we encourage you to check with your local customs office for further information before placing your order. We cannot refund any shipping costs if your order is returned for any of these reasons.


Risk of loss

All items purchased are delivered under a shipping contract with our carriers. This means that the risk of loss and title for these items passes to you upon delivery of your order to our carriers. If you have not received your order within 25 working days of the dispatch date, please contact us. We ask that you contact us as soon as possible and within 45 days of placing your order. If you contact us outside of this time frame, we will not be able to track your order or issue a refund.


My delivery is damaged, what can I do?

If you have received a damaged item, please email us within 14 days of delivery and include pictures of the damaged item so that the damage can be verified.
