the buyer is responsible for return shipping costs unless we agree differently beforehand.

please do not send anything back for a return/refund until we have discussed via etsy convo.

**STORE CREDIT. store credit given is valid in my shop only and not etsy wide or any other etsy shops.

purchases can be made either through paypal -paypal balance, credit card or etsy's direct checkout for credit cards and other payment options.

for aussie buyers I can also take direct bank deposit just contact me to for details.



RESERVE HOLDS- lots of my items are one of a kind treasures. so if you'd like something but can't pay today you can request a hold to be placed on the item/s for you.

** for new buyers, holds can be placed for up to a week.
** for return or repeat buyers longer holds of several weeks can be placed.

if items haven't been purchased by the end of the hold time I will have to remove the hold so others can have a chance to purchase.

AUSSIE BUYERS can expect their parcels in about a week after posting. i'm in NSW further states like Tassie and WA could take the full week, closer states will take less time. all aussie parcels now come with tracking included.

INTERNATIONAL BUYERS parcels are sent australia post airmail which is normally up to 2-4 weeks after posting. it can take slightly longer for postal service or customs delays.

if you need your item faster or want tracking/registered post let me know and i'll find out the costs for you.


i do not pay import or customs duties, taxes, tarrifs and charges. these applied by your country when you buy internationally and go to your government.

the buyer/person recieving package is responsible for any duties, taxes or charges. if you aren't sure about customs limits and costs please check with your local post office.

i do not mark parcels as "gift" on customs forms. i also do not give a false $$ value on customs forms. it is illegal to give false information and if found out a very heft fine and possible jail time are the consequences for me so please do not ask.

please make sure your etsy and paypal addresses are the same to avoid confusion about shipping. if they aren't the same i will contact you and the item won't be sent until i get a confirmation of the correct address so they aren't sent to the wrong place.
