Shipping charges at CTshop.com.au include the following costs that we incur;

Packaging - includes boxes, tapes, internal padding (bubble wraps, paper, internal boxes for small items etc). We tend to over package all orders to protect the products in the mail as parcels may be abused depending on the care of your local delivery man.

Postage - The postal cost is calculated at checkout based on the weight of items in the cart and the destination post code and the type of postage chosen e.g. standard postage or express.

Extras (if selected) - Signature, Insurance etc

Time - This involves the preparation of orders at varying times of the day and night to carefully pick, pack and dispatch each order as quickly as possible.

When taking all of the above costs into consideration and customer purchase patterns we have decided to introduce a Shipping Trial Period subsidising flat rate shipping for all our customers and rewarding customers for placing larger orders. During the 60 day trial period the following shipping options will be available at the checkout;

*Australian Shipping Address

Flat Rate: Regular Parcel (Including Insurance) - $15.50
Orders Over $500 Free Regular Shipping

Flat Rate: Express Parcel (Including Insurance Signature Not Required) - $20.00

Flat Rate: Express Parcel (Including Insurance Signature Required) - $23.00

*International Shipping Address

Flat Rate: Regular Parcel International to New Zealand (Including Insurance Signature Required) - $37.50  (below 5kg)
Orders Over $500 Free Shipping (below 5kg)

Flat Rate: Express Parcel International (Including Insurance Signature Required) - $55.00 (below 5kg)

At the end of the trail period we may decide to extend the offer if it is viable to do so and customers have made good use of the subsidised shipping offer.

We hope you enjoy our new Flat Rate Shipping Options.

Kind Regards
Andrea
