- Per our 'Ordering & Shipping Info' webpage, all orders are shipped via Sendle Couriers or Australia Post. Orders take up to 6 business days to be receipted within Australia and up to 10 business days to be receipted Internationally. Please note that during peak times (such as Christmas / New Year, or Public holidays), this time frame may be longer. We cannot be held responsible for any delay in your order being receipted due to local/international holidays or delays in the our/your local postal service.

Should you select the Direct Debit option, orders are not shipped until your funds have cleared in our account. If your payment has not been receipted within 14 days of purchase, then your order will be cancelled and returned to stock.
- We highly recommend that customers purchase INSURANCE on the shipping of their purchases (wholesale or regular) in order to safeguard their order. Whilst customers can Track their orders on-line through Australia Post (our Flat Rate & wholesale shipping charges include tracking), should customer orders go missing (this is rare, but in can happen), then Universal Life Tools is subsequently not responsible for the loss. Whilst every care is taken by Universal Life Tools, should your package(s) be lost in the mail or stock arrives damaged due to ill treatment by Australian or International postage services then Universal Life Tools accepts no responsibility. Should you wish to INSURE your order, please request this in the comments box during checkout or via email (additional charges to insure apply based upon Australia Post rates) and Universal Life Tools will provide you with an Australia Post Quote for Insurance. You also may like to visit the Australia Post Shipping Calculator yourself to estimate the cost of Insurance.
- Should customers stock arrive that is damaged (due to ill-care by Australia Post, International postage services, Customs etc), then you must notify Universal Life Tools via email within 7 days of receipt of damaged goods. In your email please include photos that clearly identify the damage associated with your shipment and outline in full detail ALL the damage. Universal Life Tools will then take the necessary steps to help you claim on insurance for your order. However, if you did not insure your order, then Universal Life Tools is not responsible for the loss and nothing more can be done her at our end, though based on your country you may have limited recourse with your local postage service.
- Should customers stock arrive which is faulty in nature, then these will be replaced at a cost to Universal Life Tools if notification is given via email within 7 days of receipt of goods. Please include in your email a photo(s) and a full description of the fault and our office will provide you with a return address for the return of your faulty product(s) to our office.

Universal Life Tools accepts no responsibility for parcel(s) stolen from billed addresses. Some international (including Australian) postal services do not deliver parcels directly to your door - rather a 'collect at postoffice' note is delivered. It is the responsibility of all customers to ensure that parcel(s) are collected from their postoffice within a reasonable period of time. Should the parcel not be collected and hence is returned to Universal Life Tools, then Universal Life Tools will bill the customer for any postage charged to Universal Life Tools and the full Australia Post postage charge to once again ship the parcel(s) to the customer.

- International Post laws/rules/regulations vary from country to country.

In addition, if you then require your order to be shipped to an alternate country then additional charges will apply based on the Australia Post Shipping Charges to that country.
- All customers are responsible for the payment of any taxes, fees, charges, import duties etc on receipt of their order in your particular country. Universal Life Tools accepts no responsibility for any of these charges, thus customers must make themselves familiar and aware of these charges within their own country. No refunds are offered on orders where customers do not accept shipment of their order due to charges enforced within their country.
