The despatch time for you order depends on what you have
ordered. Our service standards are as follows;

cameras, plain boxes, names change kits |
Please allow up to 2 weeks for the items to be dispatched. |

2 working days per proof, then 5 working days for printing

an email from confirming the details.
* Please note our working days are Monday to Friday.
Occasionally items are out of stock, if that is the case
we will contact you.
You should add the delivery times below to the despatch
times above. For example, if you order a product that
has a despatch time of 2 working days and you live in
Hobart, you can expect your order in 6 working days (2
to despatch, 4 for delivery).
|
| |
| How long do orders take
to be delivered once they are despatched? |
|
We use Australia Post for our deliveries. If you are
not home at the time of delivery Australia Post will leave

| What happens if I am not at home when my order is delivered? |
| Kardella Kreations uses Australia Post to deliver parcels.
If you are not at home to receive the parcel, a card will
be left so you can pick it up from your closest post office.
Sometimes cards get accidentally discarded, so if you believe
your parcel should have arrived, check with your local post
office first. |
| |
| What happens if there is a shortages or defect with
my order? |
Please help us to help you by reporting shortages or problems
with your order within 7 days of delivery. This will enable
us to assist you in rectifying the problem without undue
delay. Any faulty or damaged stock will be replaced at no
charge.
Products ordered incorrectly by customer, can be refunded
if informed within 7 days of dispatch and in mint condition
on return. Postage will be paid for by customer and a 10%

| Disposable Cameras |
| What type of film is in Kardella Disposable
Cameras? |
| Our cameras use AGFA 400asa film. They are
24 exposure and have a flash. |
| |
| Storage of cameras |
| Cameras should also be kept in a cool dry
location to ensure the film is not effected by heat. |
| |
| Do Kardella Disposable
Cameras come packaged with a card telling guests how
to use them? |
| There is no card included with our cameras,
usage information is printed on the bottom of the camera.
If you want candid shots taken by your guests, we have found
it is a good idea to get your MC to make an announcement
at the reception ceremony telling guests that the cameras
are on the table, the type of photos you would like taken
and where to leave them so you can have them developed after
the ceremony. |
 |
| Invitations |
| I have already ordered and received my printed invitations
but have realised I did not order enough. Can I have more
printed? |
| We have a minimum order of 30 printed items,
however, if we still have your job on file we can rerun
your job for a setup fee of $10 per stationery item (so
if you have need and RSVP and invite reprinted the setup
will be $20.00), plus the cost of the items. |
| |
| How long does my order take to be printed? |
| We recommend that you order your invitations 3-4 weeks
before you require them. Our service standards are as follows |
| |
| I have placed my order for printed stationery, what
happens now? |
|
Within 2 working days of placing your order you will
receive a proof of your order (any subsequent proofs also
take 2 working days). This proof will come as a PDF
attachment to an email. Please feel free to make as many
changes as you wish to this proof and email them back
to us. We will email you a revised proof to check. You
can then make any final changes to this proof and email
them to back to us. We will then email you a final proof.
If you make changes after this proof we will charge you
$15.00 for each additional proof. We will not proceed
with printing until you have approved a proof that requires
NO changes.
Once you authorise us to proceed with printing,
it takes 3 working days for your order to be despatched.
Times between despatch and actual delivery to your
address varies dependant on your location. You should
add the delivery times to
the despatch time.
Once your order has been dispatched you will receive
an email from confirming the details.

| Returns Policy |
| What is the Kardella Returns Policy? |
|
If you order an item which turns out to be unsuitable
we will exchange it for another similar item. We will
make a cash adjustment either way if the price is different.
This could be the case if the wrong size box is ordered
for example. A good way to avoid this problem purchasing
a box sample pack in advance of the main order.
If you order too many of an item, and want to return
the excess, generally these are not accepted.
If an item is printed or personalized and we make a mistake
copying from printed copy provided by you, we will replace
the item.
If the item is printed or personalized and the order
was placed by phone we will generally not replace the
item unless it is obvious that we have made a mistake.
This could occur when the order was taken and written
down and then the operator transcribes it wrongly. For
personalized items we encourage customers to provide written
copy.
For invitation orders we always provide proofs. Once
these have been approved we do not accept liability for
errors.
If we send out an incorrect item, that is it is different
from the item ordered, we will replace it and pay for
the return postage for the faulty item.
