Order confirmation
After placing an order online, you'll receive a confirmation email from us or our payment provider with your order details (if you've provided your email address). Typically, you'll receive this confirmation within minutes of placing your order. Order by 10 am (Melbourne time) on a business day for same-day dispatch; otherwise we aim to dispatch within 1 business day. If any items are unavailable, delivery might take longer, and we'll contact you with further information.
