Question: How long will it take to receive my order?
Answer: We normally despatch orders within 3 to 5 days (usually much quicker) of receiving payment confirmation provided that we have stock available. The actual delivery time to receive your order will depend on your location and the type of shipping requested when you ordered. Australia Post & couriers quote anything from 1 to 2 business days delivery to Sydney or Melbourne to 7 to 10 business days delivery to WA and remote Queensland or other remote addresses from when we ship the order. In most cases, the delivery will require a signature, so it may be a good idea to use your work address instead of home address.

Question: What happens if you don't have a product in stock?
Answer: We normally contact the buyer by email if the product will be out of stock for more than 5 days.

Question: Can Goody Goody Gum Drops guarantee delivery by a certain date?
Answer: Once we give your parcel to a courier or Australia Post the delivery is totally out of our control. Because of this, we cannot guarantee that the parcel will be delivered to meet a close deadline. we can guarantee a despatch date but not a delivery date.

Question: How will you send my order?
Answer: We despatch orders by Australia Post or by Courier depending on the delivery location or urgency. (Most parcels are sent by courier even though the Invoice/Receipt may say Australia Post) Posted orders are usually sent by Registered Mail. In most cases, the delivery will require a signature, so it may be a good idea to use your work address instead of home address. Please email us immediately after ordering if you want to change the delivery address.

Question: What if I'm not at home when my order arrives?
Answer: The postie or courier will leave a card so that you can arrange another delivery or collect the parcel from the local Post Office if it is sent by Australia Post.

Question: What are the freight cost?
Answer: As well as our normal delivery costs we offer a flat rate shipping fee and sometimes free shipping for large online orders. Discounted orders are not eligible for free shipping. Normal delivery costs are calculated automatically by our software once you enter your delivery postcode. (Prior to knowing your postcode the software defaults to postcode 2000) The shipping calculation takes into account the weight of your order, the cost of the packaging materials required, the distance your parcel needs to travel and the speed at which you would like your parcel delivered. The freight costs quoted for courier or postal deliveries are set by Australia Post and calculated at Australia Post's Registered Parcel rate and include packaging materials including the box, bubble wrap, etc.

Question: I haven't been charged for freight & my invoice says "Order over 20Kg - Postage charged separately" what does this mean?
Answer: Our Shopping Cart software is linked to Australia Post for accurate shipping costs however, if your order is 20Kg gross weight or over (Australia Post's maximum single parcel weight) the software may not calculate more than one parcel and "Orders over 20Kg" will be shown. We will invoice the postage charges separately. This can be paid by credit card or bank deposit. Our new software usually calculates the total freight costs without using this option.

Question: How can I pay for my order?
Answer: We accept payment by MasterCard or Visa credit cards through our Bank's Secure credit card gateway, PayPal or direct bank deposit. Credit card details are not kept on our servers in fact, we never see your credit card details as payments are made through our bank's secure servers or through PayPal secure servers.

Question: I don't have a PayPal account. How can I pay with my credit card?
Answer: Select "Secure Credit Card payment" at checkout and you will be transferred to our Bank's Secure payment gateway or, if you prefer to pay through Paypal, simply click on "Don't have a PayPal account? Use your credit card or bank account - Continue" on the left hand side of the PayPal Secure payment gateway page, then enter your delivery details & your credit card details.
