When you pay in 4 interest-free instalments with Klarna, your purchase is split into 4 payments automatically charged to your debit or credit card every 2 weeks. There is no interest and no fees when payments are made on time. It’s that easy.
SHIPPING
I’m worried about my order reaching me. How can I be sure that I will receive my order?
We only use secure delivery methods that deliver straight to your door. Depending on the size of you order, it will be delivered either by Australia Post (registered delivery) or by courier service.
What if I’m not home when my order arrives?
The best way to ensure prompt delivery is to provide an address that is attended during the day. If you are not home during the day, we recommend selecting a work address for delivery. We also deliver to PO boxes.
If you do provide a residential address, and you happen to miss the delivery, a calling card will be left to indicate that delivery was attempted. If you are happy to have the item left in a secure location please indicate so in the comments section of your order.
How are your delivery fees calculated?
Delivery fees are based on cubic size. The fee will appear at checkout before you complete your order.
Do you deliver to countries other than Australia?
Sorry, at this time we only deliver within Australia. Orders from international customers for delivery within Australia are welcome.
How long will it take to receive my order?
Each product listing on our website provides an estimated shipping time. For example, if a product says “usually ships in 2 days” this means that it usually takes two days for us to have your order ready to despatch from our warehouse. How long it will take to reach you, of course, depends on your location.

GIFTS
Do you offer gift-wrapping?
Yes, gift-wrapping is available as an option on the checkout page. When you select gift-wrapping the charge is automatically calculated for you, and itemised separately from the rest of the invoice.
I am ordering a number of gifts for more than one child. Can you wrap these individually?
Yes, the option to have the gifts wrapped separately appears on a pop-down menu in the same gift-wrapping section on the checkout page.
What about a card?
Any gift-wrap purchased receives an optional hand-written gift tag, free of charge. Simply enter your gift tag message, and this will be hand-written for you to personalise your gift.
I don’t want the receiver to see the invoice. Can you deliver my order without an invoice?
We have this option built into our ordering system. Simply select the “please do not include an invoice with delivery” tick-box when you checkout. The invoice will not be sent to the recipient.
What if I don’t select gift-wrapping and gift-tag? How will the receiver know who sent the gift?
Even if you elect to have no gift-wrapping, no gift tag, and no invoice included with your gift, all deliveries contain a packing slip (this itemises the products without any prices). The packing slip will also include the name of the sender.
