Delivery, returns and exchanges

WE ARE CURRENTLY EXPERIENCING A HIGH NUMBER OF ONLINE ORDERS. We pack and send daily. Some deliveries may be slightly delayed. We normally deliver Australia wide within 2-7 days. However this may be stretched out at this time to 4-10 days.

Diamantina Outdoors offers FREE DELIVERY TO A BUSINESS ADDRESS on selected items as marked on this website to locations within the metropolitan areas of selected Australian capital cities. Due to excessive freight fees, this free freight offer does not include Darwin, Hobart and for some oversized items Perth.  However we will subsidise the freight costs to these locations and work out the best possible freight deal we can. For areas outside the capital city metro areas and for all regional areas, a subsidised freight fee will also apply.

Items that include free delivery are clearly marked on this website with a ORANGE COLOUR FREE DELIVERY BUTTON on the individual product page. With such a wide variety of shape, size and weight of items going to all corners of Australia, free delivery is not provided for every item we sell. We use a large number of freight companies as some do not handle the larger items or do not specialise for deliveries to certain regions.  We shop for the best daily rates for all freight.  Those items without the orange colour free delivery button are not eligible for free delivery.

Free delivery is to a business location where the goods can be signed for. If a business address cannot be provided, a delivery fee will apply. Delivery to your door offers great convenience and some camping gear can be bulky and heavy so the savings offered for this service can be significant. Areas outside metropolitan areas of capital cities will incur an additional freight fee.

If ordering large parcels, please keep in mind that these are often too big for Australia Post (above 20kg) and must be delivered using couriers. For this reason we recommend that you where possible do the following:
1) Arrange delivery to your work, or 2) If not possible, delivery can be made to a residential address on the basis that “Authority to leave” is provided. The courier is then able to leave the goods at the front door or a secure place if no one is home to sign. Authority to Leave means you’re accepting the risk of your parcel being lost, damaged or stolen, and there is no recourse or claim for these items if the courier has delivered the goods. There is no insurance cover provided in this situation.

Delivery Area

  • We use a network of reputable and reliable couriers to deliver your order.
  • Our delivery area is mainland Australia and mainland Tasmania. We can arrange delivery to remote locations around Australia. For delivery to regional locations and islands off the mainland coast, please email info@diamantina.net.au and we will provide a quote.

  • Outside metropolitan areas, delivery times may vary.

Receiving Your Order

  • Deliveries are made during business hours Monday to Friday and delivery is preferred to a business address for security reasons.
  • Small parcels will be left in your letter box. For larger parcels someone needs to accept and sign for the delivery which is why a business address is required. If this is not possible and delivery to a residential address is required, “Authority to Leave” must be provided.
  • Please inspect the package for damage before signing. If the package is damaged but the contents look unaffected, note the damage on the delivery receipt before signing. If the package is damaged to an extent the contents may be damaged, please refuse delivery and call us on 0400380473

Freight Returns

  • If you discover a problem after you’ve accepted delivery, please email info@diamantina.net.au. We may be able to resolve the problem without requiring you to return the item.
  • You should retain all packing material, manuals, swing tags, etc. until you’re completely satisfied with the condition and performance of your purchase. Doing so will make it easier to return the item if necessary.
  • If you wish to return or exchange such an item please refer to Returns and Exchanges below.

Out of Stocks

  • Some items we seel are listed as container deals and/or pre orders only. This means the product is not in stock and is made to order. At times, items we carry may be temporarily unavailable when you place an order. Whenever this occurs we will contact you as soon as possible to advise you of the delayed dispatch date.
  • You will have the option of waiting for the item to arrive, choose an alternative item, or cancel your order and receive a refund of payment.
  • Orders of more than one product are generally not split unless specifically requested.

Shipping Discrepancies

  • All orders are wrapped and packaged to ensure they arrive complete and in sound condition.
  • However if a discrepancy arises with your delivery please report it to us within 3 business days of receipt.

  • Customers are responsible for providing Diamantina Outdoors with the correct delivery address. All risks and costs associated with providing an incorrect delivery address shall remain with customers.

Returns & Exchanges

At Diamantina Outdoors our goal is to provide an enjoyable and rewarding shopping experience that encourages you to shop with us for years to come. Therefore we want you to be 100% satisfied with your purchase.

If you receive a product from us that you want to return or exchange for something else, we will happily do so under the terms of our 100% Satisfaction Guarantee.

This means to accept returns or exchanges, we need to receive an email from you within 5 days of receiving your goods. We will only accept returns or exchanges if the items are in an unused condition and in their original packaging.

We do not provide refunds if you change your mind, but will gladly consider a credit or exchange. Return delivery cost are not refundable. If an item is considered as a return where there is no fault or warranty issue (ie the purchaser has changed their mind) the cost of freight to send the item to the customer will be charged and a handling fee may be charged.

If an item is requested to be returned for inspection to assess a warranty claim, the cost of the freight for return is paid by the consumer.  If the warranty is deemed valid the cost of repairs and/or replacement is covered by us as well as the cost of return freight to the consumer.

If payment for an order is made using STRIPE and a refund is requested, STRIPE unfortunately will not refund their card use fee and therefore this fee is taken off the refund provided.
