DELIVERY TIME
Delivery times are for metro/city areas. Orders may be delayed due to customs clearance or if outside metro areas. Littlelace takes no responsibility if such a delay occurs. For same day dispatch please ensure orders are placed before 12pm (aest) on a business day. Delivery times exclude weekends and public holidays. Please note, during sale periods or special promo sales, there could be a slight delay with shipments due to the capacity of orders. We will try to do our best to get all orders out within 3 business days during sale periods.
Occasionally and/or during peak season, our shipping carrier Australia Post cannot guarantee their usual delivery time frames so please expect delays for both domestic and International orders.
INTERNATIONAL CUSTOMS FEES & RETURN SHIPPING COSTS
In the event that any customs fees, taxes and duties apply, they are the sole responsibility of the customer, this is not included in our shipping cost. Littlelace is required to state the full value of your order on the package, and this will then usually determine the applicable fees. We suggest you contacting your local customs office if you are unsure of the applicable taxes and customs fees prior to placing an order with us.
In the event where a parcel is not claimed or refused by the receiver for whatever reason, our shipping carrier will attempt redelivery. If our shipping carrier are unable to get in contact with the receiver to arrange a re-delivery and Littlelace receive no response from the receiver, the parcel may be abandoned/destroyed by authorities in the receiver's country. Consequently, if a parcel is not claimed or refused due to tax/duties, Littlelace is not obliged to issue a refund.
For orders that are not claimed and get sent back to us, we will only offer a store credit for the order less original shipping costs and RTS (return to sender) fee, this fee is not the same value as the original shipping costs.
Please note that the International cost that Littlelace offer do not reflect the cost of return shipping from countries outside of Australia. It is the responsibility of the customer to enquire about the cost of return shipping from their country to Australia in the event that they need to return their order as this charge is not the responsibility of Littlelace. For further information please contact our customer care team on hello@littlelace.co
