POSTAGE

Shipping is calculated by the weight of each item and four postal regions.

within Australia

New Zealand

USA and Canada

The Rest of the world

All goods purchased via our online store will be delivered via Australia Post airmail.(no Insurance)  We endeavour at all times to ship your orders in the most economical but secure manner. INCO term: CPT Hobart, Australia If you require insurance please advise as once the package has left the premises it is deemed to be delivered.

Occasionally with large international orders Fedex is a more viable option and Fedex priority shipping will be used with full tracking services.

Freight will be generally charged at the rates listed in the shopping cart however as you can appreciate an automated shipping cost calculator for such a wide array of items is difficult to provide. Rates have been calculated in most cases at the maximum possible cost  and therefore could be decreased on checkout in some cases. Pattern Press will always pass back any credit on shipping if a cheaper rate can be calculated manually. If you have paid by Paypal your shipping will be precalculated but major differences can be placed in credit on your account.

Some unusually shaped items or those which require more secure packaging will have the actual shipping and packaging costs added at processing time. In most cases this will be noted next to the item. 

If the incorrect shipping option is selected in the shopping cart then the correct shipping amount will be added to your order at processing time or charged on a separate emailed invoice  before shipment of order.

Pattern Press recycles post bags and envelopes where possible to cut down on your postage costs. 

USD shipping

We are still offering our flat rate shipping for USD customers. Please note this does not include books and other unusual shaped items. Your shipping will automatically calculated at the full rate on your order. It will be adjusted before processing and refunded to your paypal account or credit card. Our current offer is $USD10 per $200 of order for standard patterns and USD$10 per $50 of order for non standard books and parcels (note that most items are standard and some books are shipped from within the US at standard US mail charges). All other offers (buy 10 get one free etc) are void when using the flat rate shipping offer.
