RETURNS
Veggie Paws accepts returns and exchanges in accordance with the Australian Consumer Law. Returns and exchanges are provided for faulty products only – Veggie Paws does not accept returns or exchanges for change of mind purchases. If you believe that a product you received is faulty you must contact Veggie Paws with proof of purchase and photographic evidence of the fault. We reserve the right to ask you to send the item back to us for assessment, before providing a refund/exchange. Your return or exchange will be processed within 7 days of us receiving the item and/or receiving photographic evidence, and agreeing to its fault. If we deem that the item is not faulty, it may be sent back to you at your expense.
SHIPPING
We highly recommend that you choose signature on delivery to ensure that your parcel reaches you safely. If you have chosen standard/express shipping with authority to leave, Veggie Paws will not take responsibility for the cost of replacing lost/stolen parcels.
Orders that have been ‘returned to sender’ by Australia Post are at the customer’s expense. Redeliveries are at the customer’s expense. If Australia Post’s attempt to make delivery is unsuccessful (due to incorrect address, failure to collect, or any other reason) and your parcel is returned to sender (RTS), you must pay any RTS fees that were charged to us by Australia Post, and a redelivery fee to resend your parcel (redelivery is on a cost-recovery basis starting at $10 depending on your location, parcel size, etc). You must contact us to initiate redelivery of your parcel. We are not obligated to refund your order if delivery was unsuccessful, but any negotiated refunds will be minus RTS fees, original shipping fees, and a 10% administration fee.
If your parcel has arrived damaged, please take photos immediately and send them to sales@veggiepaws.com.au.
If your parcel has not arrived after the estimated arrival date, you may launch an investigation with the courier provider or contact us so that we can initiate an investigation.
If your parcel has been marked as delivered, but you believe it is missing, you must raise this issue with the courier provider, as they will have information on the location of the parcel (i.e., where it was left if given authority to leave).
