Ordering On Line
If you are an international customer looking to place an order, please place the
order online as per usual. When going through to the 'check-out' section of the
website, please enter your details and the country that you live in. Please put
any other neccessary delivery details into the 'delivery comments' section.
In the
shipping section of the website, the only option should be 'shipping quotation'.
This means that a special shipping quote and costing will be organised for your
order.
PCX's web site will always include Australian GST (tax) however international
orders do not need to pay GST. The pricing for your order quote will be adjusted
to remove Austrlian GST. To calculate the price excluding Autralian GST, you may
divide the prices by 1.1. This quote will be emailed to your email address and require
approval.
Order Payment (Excluding NZ & Norfolk Island)
Generally PCX does not accept credit cards from International Customers due to the
risk of credit card fraud. PCX does not accept PayPal.
We accept Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) payment which carries an additional AUD$20.00
which is charged by banks for all international transfers.
Where your payment method is EFT (bank transfer) you will need to arrange the funds
transfer for the total amount including bank fees.
Note that transfers do not appear in our account for a few days from international
bank accounts.
Shipping & Insurance
The only shipping method is Express Post International which enables insurance and
tracking for parcels.
Postal Insurance is a mandatory extra for international shipping. Insurance is charged
at $7.00 AUD per $100 order value. For example, an order value of $200 will have
an insurance charge of $14 AUD added. Additonally parcels will require a signature
upon delivery to you.
It is possible for you to organise an alternative shipping method from your end
(E.g. DHL, FEDEX). Payment will still need to be made by EFT prior to PCX releasing
goods. If you choose to use your own courier company, you are liable if goods get
lost. PCX does not take responsibility for other freight companies reliability.
