Origami Orders - International

Orders are processed within 48 hours of the receipt of your payment.
Order delivery uses international airmail using Australia Post.
Shipping charges are based on the overall weight of the parcel and will be calculated and added to the total cost of the ordered items.
The shipping cost calculated is the actual costs to send the parcel to you plus sometimes an additional small packaging fee may be required if special packaging supplies are used for your order (additional AUD $1 or $2 only.......example - if a postage tube is required to be used).

Tip: The best way to keep international shipping costs low is to avoid choosing heavy or large products (large products require additional packaging which adds weight to the order).

IMPORTANT NOTE (International Buyers): IMPORT/CUSTOM TAXES
Your order may be subject to customs charges and/or import fees if you are having an item delivered to a location outside of Australia.
We cannot estimate if or when these charges will be applied, how much they will come to if applied and we regret that we cannot pay these charges. For more information about customs charges please contact your local customs office.

Any charges incurred must be paid by the receiver of the order (not the seller), if an item is refused by the receiver the item will be abandoned by the carrier and the customer will be wholly liable for the order and the return of the goods to us otherwise the item will not be refunded.

Question: How can I pay for my order in Australian dollars when I have a USD or EURO, (non AUD$) credit card?
Answer: Your credit card account will be debited in your home currency. This conversion is looked after by the international credit card / banking systems/ PayPal. For example if you have a USD$ credit card account, your account will be debited for the USD$ equivalent of the AUD$ amount of your order. The conversion rate and AUD$ amount is normally displayed on your normal credit card statement - so you can see that you were charged the correct amount. It works the same as if you were overseas on holiday and purchased something with your credit card.
When making a payment using PayPal - PayPal will convert your "home" currency into Australian AUD$.
