Shipping

All our shipping is via Australia Post and the site caters for Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Europe and UK. Inquire via email for other countries. Note, the books and planispheres are designed for use in the southern hemisphere.

Australia

The site will show the available methods for a particular order. Previously we used to include some shipping with each product. Now we have reduced the price of our products and shipping is charged at cost. One exception to this is the newest book (Astronomy 2025, available real soon) which is still $32.95 and includes a shipping credit. While we used to have a free option, with the recent increases by Australia Post, we now have to charge a small fee.

Standard

For small orders (one or two items) the books and planispheres are sent as large letters using C4 and/or C5 envelopes (maximum two envelopes).

Note:

  • There is no tracking for this method.
  • This is the method we have been posting the books for over thirty years. With rare exception they arrive undamaged. Rarely the delivery person can try to fold the envelop to jam in a letter box.
  • Note: For orders sent as as “large letters”, Australia Post has informed us we cannot send to a parcel locker.

Express Envelope

These are sent in an Express envelope, minimal packaging but with tracking. Note, Australia Post has informed us we cannot send these to a parcel locker either.

Standard Package

Packed in a padded envelope or satchel and sent via standard post, includes tracking.

Express Package

Packed in a padded envelope or satchel and sent via express post, includes tracking.

Note, for both express options:

  1. Australia Post does not currently have the usual delivery timeline guarantee.
  2. These are posted from country Victoria so best possible is overnight to locations within the Victorian Australia Post Express network, two days to locations in the national express network and longer for others. See Australia Post web site for details.

OVERSEAS

Overseas orders are sent by Australia Post standard parcel or express parcel if selected.
