Payment
Orders are released for dispatch only upon receipt of cleared payment in full. The website supports International Shipping however delivery times will vary depending on exact location. Prices and the transaction currency are all in Australian dollars (AUD) and are listed excluding Goods and Services Tax (GST). GST will be applied during the checkout process for Australian purchases. Shipping costs are calculated in the checkout process. All costs associated with dishonoured cheques or credit card transactions are borne by the purchaser.
Shipping practices and delivery policy
We aim to dispatch in-stock items within three (3) working days of receipt of payment. For orders within Australia allow 7 days from the placement of order to receive goods and for International orders 14 days. International orders will vary depending on exact location.
For larger orders, custom orders and back-orders, please allow 3-4 weeks for delivery or as negotiated with Richard Woodward & Associates. Unfortunately, delivery dates depend on a number of factors outside of our control and we therefore cannot accept responsibility for delays. We will, however, endeavour to keep you informed at all times as to the progress of your order.
Unless you instruct us otherwise, orders which are unable to be filled from in-stock items may be delivered in instalments.
We generally ship by way of Australia Post for domestic orders and Australia Post Air Mail for International orders. However, for large orders we may elect to utilise an alternative carrier without prior notice. Additional charges will apply if you require expedited or special delivery.
The deposit of goods with our nominated carrier for shipment constitutes supply for the purposes of this agreement, and, as a consequence, all risk associated with the loss of, or damage to, goods in transit rests with the purchaser. Similarly, the costs of, and sole responsibility for, transit insurance rests with the purchaser.
If goods are not available we will notify you within two business days.
Refunds and Returns
We will happily refund or exchange if the product is damaged and returned to us.
