Answers
1. The prices on your site are in Australian dollars. Can you tell me how much I will be paying in my own currency? Top
We charge your credit card in Australian dollars. Your bank will convert this to your local currency when they process the charge at their end. As the exchange rate varies daily we cannot give you an exact amount, however, the following currency converter will provide you with a reasonable estimate of the cost.
2. What payment methods do you accept? Top
We accept major credit cards including Visa, MasterCard, American Express using the Commonwealth Bank merchant credit card processing service. You can also pay via Direct Deposit, Cheque or Money Order. For more information, go to our Payment Options
3. How secure are my credit card details? Top
Your card details are encrypted using SSL encryption technology which is the same security used by many banks. The secure server software, Secure Socket Layers (SSL) is among the best available for secure commerce transactions. When exchanging personal data such as your credit card number, your name, email address, etc., this data is encrypted so that it is incomprehensible when sent across the Internet. When you purchase online, credit card purchases are generally protected against fraud by law, and your liability is limited.
4. What happens if no-one is home when my gift basket is delivered? Top
As a guide only, our couriers attempt to deliver to business and home addresses between 9am and 5pm, Monday to Friday. Unfortunately, we are unable give a guaranteed time of delivery. If no-one is home to accept the delivery, the courier may leave the goods with a trusted person (if authorised by you) if it is safe to do so or a card will be left asking the recipient to contact the courier to arrange re-delivery. Re-delivery may incur an additional fee of $15 if goods are returned to CoastShop becuse they could not be delivered. We recommend that you enter a delivery address where someone will be available between the hours of 9am and 5pm on the delivery day.
5. I gave you the wrong address for an order I placed. Can you resend it? Top
It is your obligation to provide us with the correct delivery address details at the time of ordering. Should you enter the wrong address, we are not obliged to re-deliver the order to the correct address at our expense. Any additional delivery charge will be paid by the customer for re-delivery when the address given on the original order is incorrect.
6. What happens if you are out of stock of a product I ordered? Top
Where an item is not available, due to circumstances beyond our control, we will give you a full refund if product can not be obtained within 7 days. If we cannot fill your order within our usual time frame we will contact you immediately.
7. What is your policy for the return or exchange of products?

Goods that are received in a condition that is not acceptable (e.g.damaged or spoiled or DOA) can be returned to Coastshop if the recipient/customer contacts Coastshop within 7 days of receipt of the goods.
When you return goods via an registered Australia Post or courier, please keep the appropriate proof of return. Otherwise, if the returned item goes missing in transit, we will deem you have not returned the product to us.
