Shipping and Return Policy
SHIPPING
All orders are shipped through Australia Post both within Australia and International.
All items are carefully packaged in a strong mailing box with plenty of tissue paper and bubble wrap to protect them.
Despatch is from the MidWest, Western Australia 6531
Within Australia
Regular shipping is 2 – 6 business days within Australia. However, regional areas may be longer.
Express post is next business day delivery within the Express post network which covers 80% of Australian private addresses, business addresses, and Post Office boxes. Service operates between all capital cities (except Darwin and in Perth CBD only) and in some major centres. Outside metropolitan areas guaranteed service is to and from townships only. Post codes outside the next day delivery network are fastest possible delivery (this is still faster than regular in most cases, usually in 2 business days, but occasionally it can be 3).
International Delivery
International delivery is via Australia Post International standard delivery.
Please note we cannot deliver to post office boxes for International deliveries.
RETURNS
A refund cannot be given if you simply change your mind.
Items that are damaged in transit or on receipt are not the responsibility of MidWest Hatters.
Our policy lasts 30 days. If 30 days have gone by since your purchase, unfortunately we can’t offer you a refund or exchange.
