For Rural addresses it may take an extra 2 days for your order to reach you.

If you have any special shipping instructions, please include them in the "order notes" or send us an email. Via our contact page. 

International Shipping
All International Orders will be sent via Track and Trace  and Signature Required, unless requested otherwise by the customer.

Shipping costs to countries  other than New Zealand will be determined by quote from both NZ Couriers and New Zealand Post.  A target delivery timeframe will also be provided if available for the carrier.

As soon as shipping is confirmed, we will process and ship your order.

Shipping charges are for shipping only. You are responsible for any customs or duty charges levied by your country.

We DO NOT reship or refund packages that have been confirmed as delivered but claimed as not received

IMPORTANT: We want you to process your order as quickly and efficiently as possible.

Once your order has been shipped, it generally takes 2-3 days to deliver. If your address is rural please allow up to a further 2 days to deliver.


Delivery Confirmation
We ARE NOT responsible for packages that have been confirmed as delivered but claimed as not received. It is the buyers responsibility to provide a secure environment for delivery. If you are concerned about the security of your delivery location, please inquire about additional services like signature required. We will make every effort to assist.

We DO NOT reship or refund packages that have been confirmed as delivered but claimed as not received until a statutory declaration has been completed  by the customer and received by us (Domestic customers only).

If you believe your mail has been stolen, contact your local police.

Wrong Address
It is the buyers responsibility to provide the correct delivery address. We ARE NOT responsible for packages that have been delivered to an address that was entered incorrectly. Please review your order confirmation to make sure you have entered your correct delivery address. We will make every effort to assist but we DO NOT refund or reship packages that have been delivered as addressed.

Unclaimed Packages
We DO NOT accept any responsibility, nor will we issue any refunds for packages not claimed. If the tracking information indicates that a package was delivered or that the Carrier attempted to deliver the package and/or left notification, it is the buyer's responsibility to follow up with the Carrier and collect their package before it is returned. If the package is returned to us unclaimed, the items may be refunded minus the shipping charges. Further, any additional shipping charges levied by the carrier for return costs will be deducted from the refund. 

Returning /Exchanging Items

We DO NOT accept any responsibility for shipping charges when items are returned solely for the purpose of exchange.

Should we ship an incorrect product we will ship the correct product at our cost.

The Commerce Commission enforces the Fair Trading Act 1986.

Procedures

There are five options available for our customers who would like to return a product:


  1. If a product is unsatisfactory, we can offer to exchange it for another one (i.e. a different size or colour etc) or another product of the same value. Generally proof of purchase is required in order to get an exchange, although we may waive this requirement if we believe we have sold the product. Please note, products returned or exchanged must be in a resalable condition with packaging intact and all labels etc returned with the item.
  2. Money Back Guarantee. 
    We will offer a Money Back Guarantee if a customer has proof that they purchased the goods from Delta Canine Training Products Ltd . A refund will be made in the same tender as the original purchase. Please note that purchases made by cheque need seven days to clear before we can refund and as mentioned above, that product returned must be in resalable condition and in the original packaging unless faulty or otherwise deficient. The Money Back Guarantee does not apply to bulk Biothane orders, Gift Cards or Custom Made Items.
  3. Application for Refund. 
    An application for a refund will be required by email at info@deltacanine.co.nz. You will need to declare you intention to return the item and that you will be requesting a refund. You will also need to include proof of purchase using either order number or invoice and the reason for the return.

  4. If the returned product is still under warranty, the repair will be at our expense. There may be an assessment fee on electronic items which include electronic bark collars and electronic containment systems. If the product is out of warranty, then we can still have the product repaired, however the cost of the repair will be charged to the customer.
