Postage, Returns & Refunds

Postage

In general, postage for the majority of orders placed through our online store will be charged at a Priority Post rate (formerly Express Post) as stated during the checkout section of your transaction. Rates are calculated on the overall weight of your order and you will be charged accordingly.

Please note: A flat postage rate of $50 for any Uniform Orders will apply if your order is placed after the nominated order cut-off date. This rate will automatically supersede any pre-calculated rates available prior to the nominated cut-off date.

Please note : We do reserve the right to contact you and charge a more appropriate postage fee if your order exceeds the reasonable weight or volume covered by our pre-calculated rates. Pre-calculated rates are based on the overall weight of your order. If, however, your order is deemed to weigh above a calculated average, then your order may be placed on hold until will are able to contact you regarding any additional postage fees. Our pre-calculated rates will generally cover postage for an individual athletes order, but may not be adequate to cover the postage cost of multiple/combined athlete orders or team orders.

Orders for events will take up to 3 weeks from the closure of the order window (not the date you placed your order) and this will be communicated directly through Gymnastics Victoria.

All orders are sent as "Authority to leave" as default, unless a request is received at checkout from the customer.
