Now here’s some serious stuff- We understand you might expect your order based on the time frames you see above, these are only rough estimates and as the goods go via road the couriers cannot always meet these times although they will do their best. Refunds will not be given for late delivery outside our stipulated delivery time frames. Orders also cannot be refunded once they are with our couriers for delivery.

 

Can items in one order be sent to different addresses?

Our transport system is automated and can only read the one shipping address per order. To send to multiple addresses this will need to be done as individual orders.  

 

What happens if I’m not at the address when my delivery arrives?

We recommend providing a suitable daytime delivery address to ensure someone is available to sign for your order. 

The Australia Post app gives the receiver an option to manage their own delivery and address simply click on the delivery from Flaschengeist and you can press the REDIRECT IT button if you are not home upon the delivery day. 

If a parcel is not able to be found on the premises, and Flaschengeist can provide evidence of delivery from the courier, then unfortunately this will not entitle the purchaser to a refund or replacement, as the order has been delivered.

 

Can I change my delivery address after I have ordered?

We are quick so call the office or shoot us an email straight away to have the address changed. Once your order is processed and leaves our office, we can’t really change the address and the couriers can’t re- direct your order either unfortunately. 

 

Managing the tracking of your order

It is your responsibility to inform Flaschengeist if an order has not arrived. We will then trace and lodge an enquiry with Australia Post and provide you with a case file no.

 

I’m sending my order as a gift will there be an invoice with the order?

We never include invoices with our deliveries, only the packing slip. If you have purchased online, rest assured that your lucky recipient won’t see any pricing within the delivery box.
