Delivery - Australia
We use Australia Post to send out all orders made in Australia, using standard Parcel Post (unless an Express service is selected). Tracking numbers are provided via email, so please ensure that your email address is entered correctly and that your email is monitored, including junk mail. We use an automated delivery system, so please ensure that your address details are correct when making your order as Kippins is not liable for any lost or damaged parcels. We deliver to both PO boxes and residential/business addresses. If you have special delivery instructions we can pass these on to Australia Post/our chosen delivery service but we cannot guarantee they will be followed.
Standard delivery (with tracking) - $11.95
Express Delivery (with tracking) - $14.95
Standard Delivery in Australia is free when you spend $100 or more in one transaction, including discounts (final amount must be $100 or more.)

Incorrect address or returned parcels
If we are unable to deliver your parcel due to an incorrect delivery address, or if the parcel is returned to us as undeliverable, an extra postage fee will apply to send it again. If this occurs, we will contact you to consider your options.
Undelivered packages or packages with missing items.
In the event that your package is undelivered or items are missing, we require that you complete our Missing/Undelivered Items Declaration.

Please ensure that 14 days have passed before contacting us regarding a lost package. If you would like to fill out a Missing/Undelivered items declaration, please email hey@kippins.com including your order number.
Refunds for missing items shall be credited to the original method of payment, for the value of the original payment. Replacements will be made for the same value of the good originally purchased.

INTERNATIONAL CUSTOMS CHARGES (WHERE APPLICABLE)
Some orders may incur a customs or import duty charge. Kippins do not have any control over these charges or are unable to advise what they will be, as it is based on your own countries regulations & compliances. For further information, please contact your local customs office.
All charges are to be paid by the customer on delivery of order. Orders cannot be returned to sender and Kippins will never pay these customs charges on your behalf. If you refuse to pay these charges your parcel may be abandoned, and Kippins will not be held responsible for any loss of funds as a result of this occurrence. We cannot mark International orders as a gift in order to bypass or reduce any customs fees. This is an illegal practice and as an established business we will not do this.
