How does delivery work?
We Ship from Melbourne and use Australia Post for all our deliveries, we currently ship only within Australia. For all express shipping options you can expect your parcel to arrive within 2-7 business days and for standard shipping options you can expect your parcel to arrive within 5-12 business days once dispatched.
​
When we ship the order you will receive a confirmation email with a tracking number. It is important to provide an email address when placing your order as Australia post send tracking notifications via email once it is on the way and ready to be delivered. Please don’t stress if there are no scan events within the first 48 hours – the system can take a day or so to catch up.
If your order does not arrive within 12 business days, please contact us so that we can follow it up with Australia Post.
Please note we are not liable if your parcel is lost or stolen once the tracking confirms that the parcel has been delivered to your address. If you require some assurance then we recommend adding insurance cover (price amount varies on the order value) or signature on delivery on top which is an additional $3. If Australia post lose a parcel in transit or deliver it to an incorrect address then we can only compensate you once they give us a refund, e.g. if your order is worth $50 then they can compensate that back however if it more than $100 Australia Post can only compensate upto $100. If the total value of your order is higher than $100 we recommend buying insurance cover as we will not be liable. Australia Post may contact you offering safe drop – if you accept this we do not take responsibility for the package. We pack all your items with very secure packaging, however If you have received an item that is damaged or a liquid item that has leaked the process for compensation is to take it to the nearest post office with the contents and packaging as it is. Once they assess and deem our packaging was done correctly they will process a damaged item claim and give us compensation back so that we can replace/credit/refund the item for you. If you do not take this to the nearest post office for assessment we will not be able to replace/credit/refund you for the item.
​
The Cello Platinum V2.0 is not part of any sale period and we recommend when purchasing that to add signature on delivery or insurance or both due to the high value. Once you place your order please contact us as soon as possible to add signature on delivery or insurance coverage or both if you like.
​
Shipping may take additional time during holidays, busy sale periods and extreme weather events. Please allow additional time for regional and rural deliveries in case of any delays.
