Shipping Policy

AUSTRALIA WIDE DELIVERY. UNFORTUNATELY AT THIS TIME WE DON'T SHIP INTERNATIONALLY.

 

Our shipping policy is to keep our product prices as low as possible and charge customers just the actual costs based on the weight of your order, and the postage method you have selected.  
We do not profit on shipping costs or charge handling fees.  Parcels are not insured by us – if you do want insurance added to your order please contact us at the time of ordering to request the extra fee be added to cover the value.
If shipping seems excessive please query it.

Shipping Turnaround Time

We ship orders as quickly as possible in the order they are received.  Orders will normally be shipped within 2-5 business days depending on the volume we are receiving.  
At certain busy times of the year processing may be 4-5 days 
If an item is out of stock or unavailable, you will be contacted to advise how long it is likely to be & it will either be refunded or backordered.

Made to order items can take up to 14 days to be made, you will be advised when item is shipped.

Parcel Post with Tracking Delivery (via Australia Post eParcel)

Generally 1-4 days within Melbourne once shipped, 3-5 business days to Sydney, Adelaide or Canberra, approx 5-7 to Brisbane, approx 7-14 days to Perth or remote areas

Rates:  Large letter rate will display as an option but only when items are flat and below 50gm total weight (please note large letter does not have tracking).  Rates will vary according to weight and where you are located.  eParcel parcel post is usually the most economical postage method however it does take longer than Express Post.  For bulky orders to areas outside main cities this is the most economical option.

Please note that if this option is selected you also waive the right to claim for any lost orders that are insured once delivered. If you have special requests as to where you would like an order left please write these in the comments box at checkout so tht we can add them to your label.

Please check your address carefully when placing an order.  If an order is returned to sender due to an incorrect address being entered by the customer, the sender (Jessi Owl & Kitty Designs) is charged a return to sender penalty fee of $11.00 per parcel by Australia Post.  If this occurs we will need to recoup this cost from the customer as well as the cost to re-ship the order.
