Orders and Cancellations

Completing an order constitutes a contract of sale between the customer and Four Chickens Pty Ltd where the customer has:

  • Specified goods to purchase
  • Provided a valid delivery address located (or arranged in-store pick up)
  • Paid in full for the goods requested, shipping and any other applicable fees or taxes
  • Received an order confirmation

When placing an order, the customer warrants that the details provided are accurate and they have the lawful right to use and share these details, including, but not limited to, name, address, phone number and payment details.

Without being held liable for any resulting loss or damages of any kind, Four Chickens Pty Ltd reserves the right to:

  • Request identification, verification of payment or an alternative payment method
  • Restrict the quantity of goods available for purchase
  • Cancel an order or part of an order at any time, including after payment has been processed and order confirmation has been sent to the customer

Orders may be cancelled for any reason including, but not limited to:

  • Errors in customer details
  • Invalid payment
  • Inability to contact the customer by phone or email
  • Errors in pricing, shipping costs or information provided about the goods

Where an order has been cancelled by Four Chickens Pty Ltd, we will notify the customer as soon as possible by email or phone and provide an opportunity to change the order or receive a full refund of the purchase price including shipping.

Depending on order volume and other factors, orders may be shipped as soon as payment is processed. Therefore, Four Chickens Pty Ltd does not agree to honour any cancellation or change to any order, including change of delivery address.

In the case of a mistake resulting in the need to cancel or change an order, the customer is advised to call the company as soon as possible. Outside of business hours, the customer should send an email or use the contact form and should then also call at the resumption of business hours. If the order has already been shipped, the customer may be responsible for paying for postage to return the cancelled goods and/or to ship another order.

Pricing and Payment

All prices are in Australian dollars (AUD) and include GST. Shipping costs will be added at checkout except where free shipping is offered on all items in an order.

For international orders, these prices (in AUD) represent our current, international prices excluding shipping. Special offers on shipping, including free shipping, may not be available for international orders.

Payment can be made by:

  • PayPal
  • Bank Transfer
  • Credit or debit card
  • AfterPay

All payment and transactions will take place between the customer and Four Chickens Pty Ltd trading as Dine a Chook.

We reserve the right to change prices and product details at any time.

Shipping

We use a range of shipping agents, including but not limited to: Australia Post, Startrack Express and Australian Air Express.

Most orders are shipped at 2pm the next business day after receiving payment. Service times for delivery may vary depending on the delivery address, the shipping agent used and the time of year.

Four Chickens Pty Ltd will provide an estimated delivery date on request. Although we will make every effort to provide an accurate estimate, because delivery depends on a range of factors outside of our control, we accept no responsibility should delivery occur outside of the estimated period nor will Four Chickens Pty Ltd be held liable for any loss or damage resulting from inaccurate estimates or any other factor related to delivery.

The customer will receive a tracking number once their order has shipped. If the goods do not arrive as expected, the customer should notify Four Chickens Pty Ltd.

If goods arrive damaged, it is the customer’s responsibility to notify us within 3 days of delivery in order to arrange an exchange or replacement.

Guarantees and Warranties

We want our customers to be happy and understand if they change their mind. In addition to the rights protected by Australian Consumer Law, we also offer the following satisfaction guarantee:

We will accept returns for a refund or exchange where the customer notifies Four Chickens Pty Ltd of their decision within 3 days of receiving the goods and provides reasons.

Goods must be returned in the same condition as they were received, including all original packaging. The customer will be responsible for the cost of postage or delivery to return the goods to Four Chickens Pty Ltd.

Once the goods have been returned, Four Chickens Pty Ltd will process a refund or exchange as soon as possible. The customer will be refunded the purchase price minus shipping costs. This does not affect the customer’s rights under Australian Consumer Law.

Four Chickens Pty Ltd does not offer warranties on any goods sold except where it is required by law to do so. Any warranties offered are limited to the terms and conditions stated in this document or those provided by the manufacturer or other relevant third-party provider.
