SHIPPING & RETURNS
TraumaSim Group are excited to be able to offer you an online shopping platform and want the experience to be as simple as can be!
Orders
In respect of each product listed in your Checkout Summary, your order is an offer from you to the TraumaSim Group to buy that product from our organisation. TraumaSim Group will be bound to supply you the product once payment has been processed and our system has sent you an email order confirmation.
- TraumaSim Group is responsible for dispatching products to you under these Terms of Sale.
- All accepted orders supersede all previous quotes/estimates.
Information about Products
Due to our products being made to order and hand-painted, and the varying limitations of users monitors or screens (PC, phone etc), some products may differ very slightly in visual appearance (eg. colour & detail) from the way they appear on the website.
Pricing and payment
- You must pay for all online purchases at the time of online checkout prior to order confirmation in accordance with one of the payment methods offered on the Website. Our system tracks inventory and stock on hand and should not allow users to purchase items that are not available. However, if this occurrence eventuates, a refund will be provided.
- The prices of products, and any delivery or other charges, shown are in Australian dollars, inclusive of GST.
Delivery to your door
- Where the product is being delivered, delivery options are listed on at the checkout before payment is processed. Currently, our website will offer freight options available via Australia Post only. Other options are available and we recommend you contact a team member to identify the best delivery option for you.
- Available delivery options, terms and charges for each product will be shown on the relevant Checkout/Cart page. The option selected by you and the applicable estimated delivery times will be shown in your Checkout Summary.
- You will be notified via email once your products have been dispatched.
- TraumaSim are unable to accept liability for delay in delivering goods which is beyond our reasonable control (e.g. if stock is unavailable or if freight delays by the service provider). If the product has not been delivered within a reasonable time (depending on the nature of the product and the delivery address), please contact us if you wish to cancel your order for that product and request a refund.
- You must ensure there is clear and safe access for delivery. Please ensure there is a person present at the delivery premises who is authorised by you to accept delivery. If there is not, the freight provider will endeavour to deliver the product if safe and appropriate to do so.
- If the delivery contractor arrives at the agreed time but is unable to deliver the product or considers that it is unsafe or inappropriate to do so, you may be required to pay for re-delivery later, or we may cancel your order and provide you with a refund.
- Some products may require extra delivery personnel which may incur an additional charge as advised to you before you submit your order. In this instance, TraumaSim will ensure the freight contractor delivers your goods at ground level at the delivery premises unless you have arranged otherwise. The goods are at your risk after delivery.
How long will my delivery take?
In most cases, delivery for products purchased online will take 2–5 days, but for some products, such as Special Orders items, it may take 7–14 days.
The TraumaSim Group team work hard to ensure stock is on the shelves so that online orders can be fulfilled at the time of receipt and dispatched the same day, if possible.
For items that are custom made, manufacture of the product could take up to 2 weeks plus freight/shipping time additional. Availability of each product and the estimated lead time is visible on each product page prior to selection.
For large bulk items that are outside of Australia Post’s services, we utilise independent freight providers and customers are welcome to source freight and shipping services at their cost should this be more suitable.
How much does delivery cost?
All freight and shipping is calculated using the weight and dimensions of the individual products and can vary based on these measurements.
At the time of placing your order online, the Australia Post API plug-in will calculate the options for you and provide a price. Should the option be too large or heavy for Australia Post’s services, the TraumaSim Group team will provide a quote through a 3rd party provider.
All items that are too big and bulky for Australia Post have been identified and this is communicated in the description on each page of each relevant product. Our system will not allow you deliver something that is not suitable and will advise you to contact a TraumaSim team member for purchasing assistance. A quote will be provided for review and approval prior to acceptance of the order.
