SHIPPING & DELIVERY

  • Do you ship Internationally?

    • Yes we do!
    • Since 2006, we have shipped to well over 40 countries around the world. We love our overseas customers, and have some have become dear friends.
    • Note that certain countries have customs charges on entry, and these charges are solely your responsibility. This is especially important if you are purchasing from the U.K., France or Germany or getting us to ship there as a gift on your behalf. Please check local GOVT. import websites before deciding to purchase please. 
  • Do you ship to PO Boxes?

    • Yes we do.
  • How long will it take to receive my order?

    • Your order will always leave same day, or next business day.
    • If you live in Australia, transit time depends on what method you choose. Normal E-Parcel post takes 3-7 business days to most capital cities, and E-Parcel Express Post takes 1-3 business days. In 90% of the time, Express is usually overnight to most capital cities and metro areas, but we cannot guarantee it. You must order and pay before noon SA time for us to have a chance of shipping same day.
    • If you live outside of Australia, then the shipping time varies from approximately 7-10 business days to New Zealand, to 10-12 business days to places like the UK and USA. Other countries, can take up to 21 business days (but usually less). We prefer to give you the outside estimates, and then surprise you if it arrives sooner.
    • We have a full page with more specific information on shipping here.
  • Where do you ship from?

    • We ship from Adelaide in sunny Australia. Though we are generally very far away from most other countries, our shipping rates to other countries are some of the cheapest around, and we can get your toys to you quickly, and with tracking.
  • How do I track my order?

    • As soon as your toys are prepared for shipment, we send out a Despatch Notice to you via email. Please wait up to 24 hours before trying to track as they need to be scanned in by Australia Post.
    • All tracking instructions are on that notice.
    • Australian customers, simply click on the tracking link.
    • International Buyers, note, that online tracking links, do not work for all countries, and instructions are on the notice, along with more information on this page. In 9 out of 10 emails we get from customers asking about tracking, their question was answered on the despatch email. It can save a day due to time differences for us to get back to you with the same information. If you really are at wits end, just get in touch, we are always here to help.
  • What if I am not home when parcel is delivered?

    • From April, 2017 all Australian parcels delivered by Australia Post will be left at the premises if deemed safe by the postman, and a photo will be taken of the location.  If the delivery driver deems the location unsafe, package will be sent to your local Post Office for collection. You can now create an account via the Australia Post MYPOST site and redirect parcels to another location, or work address or your local Post Office for collection and safe keeping. From April, this will be the ONLY WAY to guarantee a parcel is awaiting collection at the local post office.
    • All international deliveries require a signature on delivery, as we include insurance on almost all parcels, for your security. Your postal system, may, deem a delivery safe enough to drop at the home, and you should check your local Post System if they have a system in place to counter this. International deliveries, generally go back to the local Post Office if no one is home, so you should check tracking regularly, in case your postman forgets to leave a card.
  • My package is overdue / late, what can I do?

    • Check the tracking, and make sure, there isn't some delay due to customs or natural weather patterns.
    • Check we have the correct delivery address for your order and your contact details are up to date by logging into your account.
    • Check to see if you have an attempted delivery card from one of our carriers. Your parcel may be awaiting collection at a local post office.
    • Look in any safe areas the driver may have left your parcel, such as behind plant pots or bins, or in a shed, garage or porch.
    • If none of the above work, please get in touch making a note of your order number and we will start investigating immediately.
  • I entered the wrong address when I ordered what can I do?

    • If you have not had a despatch notice by email, get in touch with us immediately, noting your order number, and the correct address and we will try and change the details for you.
    • Australian customers, if your order has already shipped, and you have registered on MyPost, you can re-direct parcels up to an hour before delivery by logging on.
