Christmas Processing Times November 1 to January 31 ("the Christmas Period")

The above processing times relate to non-Christmas periods. During the Christmas Period processing times can be extended due to back logs caused by Christmas demand. While in most cases Goki Toy Store will be able to adhere to normal processing times, delays from our suppliers and general demand make it difficult.  We ask for your patience and rest assure all orders placed before our Christmas cut off times will reach you prior to the big day.

If your order is for a birthday or you are going away, and you require your order as a matter of urgency, please email your order confirmation to customer service and we will attempt to prioritise it, but please only do this if it necessary.

Prior to Christmas is a stressful time for everyone and our Warehouse and Customer Service teams are working their hardest to make sure your presents arrive. Remember, we're on your side.

(ii) Shipping Policy

So, what is Gokitoys Shipping Policy?

Australia is a vast country and our population is spread all over in isolated patches. As such, shipping can be costly.  Shipping costs for parcels are not standard across weights and distances, they vary according to where you are and how much your parcel weighs.

How much will Shipping Cost me?

Flat rate delivery fee $10.90* Australia wide.

*Heavy or bulky items may incur additional charges, as may certain destinations. You will be contacted to confirm delivery costs prior to your items being sent.*

In other words please note that if an order is successfully placed, it does not necessarily mean that the flat-rate shipping fee applies. We reserve the right to request additional shipping costs for deliveries to rural or remote locations and/or bulky items.

Please note "Metropolitan", "Regional" and "Rural" are determined by our courier partners and may not necessarily match the government designations.

(iii) Delivery Guide

We use established courier companies and Australia Post to ensure the fastest possibly delivery to you.  Australia is a vast country and shipping sometimes can be beyond our control. The below table is a guide only as to when you can expect to have your goods delivered to you after Goki Toys Store has processed your order. We will endeavour to contact you should there be any delay in the below delivery times.

Notes on Delivery Guide:

• We do not ship to Post Office Boxes or Parcel Lockers.
• Orders will require signature on delivery.
• Delivery times are based on working days and are approximate only.
• No liability is accepted for late delivery.
• Delivery times may vary according to weather, road conditions and seasonal overload such as Christmas.
• Orders are shipped with Fastway Couriers and StarTrack within Australia.
• You will be given a Tracking Number to track your goods.
• NT & WA (Northern Territory & Western Australia) orders may be subject to a freight surcharge, customers will be notified for approval before sending any goods, and orders may be cancelled if freight charge is deemed too high by either customer or management.

(iv) What if no one is there to receive the Goods I have ordered?

We have taken the effort to pack and ship your goods to you, so please make the effort to have someone there to sign for them. The best way to ensure this is to have them delivered to a business address or follow the tracking and make sure you or someone else is available.
