ITEMS BROKEN DURING SHIPPING

Where an item has been broken during shipping, the following applies:

Massage Warehouse endeavours to package all items to prevent breakage through carrier handling.  From time to time - breakages may occur.  You must notify us within 24 hours of receipt of goods if a breakage has occured. 

Please note Couriers and Australia Post do not insure you or us against breakage or loss - to insure your goods against breakage or loss you will need to apply for transit insurance with your order.  This can be done in the comments section of your order.

However, we know how annoying things like this can be.  We will refund the cost of the damaged goods or replace the damaged goods if you notify us within 24 hours of delivery and return the damaged goods to our warehouse.  Return costs and redelivery costs are not included in this offer. .

If you wish to accept a store credit, then the cost of the damaged goods will be credited toy our account..  We will require you to forward the damaged goods to our warehouse for authentication. The return delivery charge is not covered as part of the store credit arrangement.

 

SHIPPING


We offer domestic and international shipping.  We do not include international shipping on the shopping cart as there are restrictions on some products in some countries. Please call or email for international orders.

If paying by PAYPAL, all goods will be shipped to your registered paypal address.  If you require goods to be shipped to a location that is different to your PAYPAL address, please pay using one of our other payment facilities at checkout.

When you place an order, we will estimate shipping and delivery dates for you based on the availability of your items and the shipping options you choose. Depending on the shipping provider you choose, shipping date estimates may appear on the shipping quotes page.

Please also note that the shipping rates for many items we sell are either weight-based or cubic weight based. All couriers and Australia Post use this method.  We do not set the charge. 

SHIPPING OPTIONS

All our goods are shipped with tracking numbers.  This is to ensure your goods arrive safely or can be found if misplaced by the carrier.  It also means someone needs to be at home to receive and sign for the order when it arrives.  If the property is unattended, a calling card will be left with details for you to PICK UP at your local Post Office.

If you request an item to be left at the premises, without signing, and in your absence you also understand that once the carrier has  placed your order at your location - we can take no further responsibility for the items being stolen, lost, missing or damaged through environmental conditions. 

 

For more information see 'TERMS AND CONDITIONS'

You should expect to receive your refund or replacement item within four weeks of giving your package to the return shipper (ie Aust Post), however, in many cases you will receive a refund/replacement more quickly. This time period includes the transit time for us to receive your return from the shipper (5 to 10 business days), the time it takes us to process your return once we receive it (3 to 5 business days), or the time it takes your bank to process our refund request (5 to 10 business days).
