Colours

We have made every effort to display as accurately as possible the colours of the products that appear on the website. However, due to monitor discrepancies, we cannot guarantee that your display of colour will be accurate.

Although we will make every effort to respond quickly to your email messages, www.bigreams.com.au is under no obligation to respond to all pieces of correspondence received through this site, or to maintain your submitted comments in confidence, or to pay compensation of any kind for your comments or submissions.

Promotional Codes and Price Markdowns.

From time to time Big Dreams will offer online sales which will either require a promotional code or products will have prices already marked down. All items purchased under these conditions are final and there will be no exchanges or returns.  Promotional codes must be used at checkout before a sale is finalised. Promotional codes will not be applied after a sale has gone through. Only one promotional code can be used at a time. Promotional codes will have an end date and will not be extended. 

COLLECT IN STORE

Locals may choose to collect rather than pay for freight. You will be notified by phone or email when your order is ready to collect. Collection times are during normal trading hours.  

Standard Shipping

Big Dreams offers a flat rate shipping & handling fee of $14 to all AUS customers. Orders placed before 12pm Mon-Fri EST on in-stock items will be shipped the same day. 

Shipping times are dependant on the carrier and time of year. We use Australia Post or couriers depending on the location. Locations outside capital cities and major regional centres may require 2 to 3 extra working days for delivery. Very remote locations will take longer.  Your order will leave our store with the utmost urgency but transit time is out of our control and will be dependant on the carrier. You will always be provided with a tracking number that you can use to trace your order.

Express orders placed during a promotion, will be sent when the promotion has ended, so may not be the same day. Parcels will be sent express the day after the completion of the promotion if customer has paid for this service. 

Orders placed over the weekend or on public holidays will be shipped on the next business day when our store re-opens. If a product happens to be unavailable at the time of your online purchase, we will contact you via email to notify you of its expectant date. You, the customer, reserve the right to omit that product from your total order. Big Dreams will credit your method of payment to reflect the correct price of the unavailable product.

International Shipping

Big dreams offer an 'Economy' shipping through Australia Post that includes tracking. 

Delivery times are dependant on Australia Post and given the added pressure of Covid 19, delivery times are often delayed. You can lodge an enquiry directly with Australia Post if you are concerned with your tracking details, or contact us directly at online@bigdreams.com.au

When orders shipped internationally reach the destination country, they may be subject to customs clearance procedures which can cause delays beyond original delivery estimates. You may also be subject to local customs, duties and taxes. The customer is wholly responsible and liable for these charges.
