Shipping Terms

Shipping:
The shipping price includes processing, postage and robust packaging. Books are wrapped in a plastic inner-bag and then packed in a custom cardboard book box sized to help protect corners from bumping in transit.
The fastest shipping speed is via Australia Post Express. The lowest priced option is via Australia Post Regular parcel post. Both services include tracking.

The shipping prices listed are generated by an automatic calculation on this database based on a packaged book weight of 1 kg for a single book, increasing by 500 g for each additional item in the same package. They should be taken as a guide only. Some books may require additional postage and, if so, a request for the additional amount will be sent before processing the transaction.

**US Resident please note: ** We are currently unable to ship to the US and Puerto Rico. As a result of the recently introduced changes to the import tariff requirements set out in US Executive Order 14324, Australia Post has joined a number of international postal operators to temporarily suspend partial postal services to the United States (US) and Puerto Rico, effective immediately until further notice. We regret this inconvenience and hope that the issue will be resolved as soon as possible.
