Unfortunately, this process may take a little extra time. As a small business, we need to follow this process and await an official report from the courier so we can claim it through insurance.

If you have authorised for the parcel to be left unattended, then responsibility rests with you if the parcel goes missing from your door. We unfortunately cannot offer a refund or a replacement in this instance.

Why is the best before date not listed?
We generally only list the best before date in the product description if the product is nearing or has surpassed its best before date.

Why is an item out of date?
This is just a best before date and not an expiry date. Meaning, the product may not be in its best possible condition but is completely safe to eat and sell. Most items we sell are not perishables and have an extended shelf live past their best before date. Items that are past or nearing the best before date have this information written in the product description on our website. They are also heavily discounted. We are unable to offer refunds on these out-of-date items as we had let you know prior to purchase, and they were purchased for a discounted price.

Why does the best before date look different?
Some countries date their items differently to Australia. For example, Japan dates their items reading backwards and America swap the month and date around.

Here is an example:
Australia: 1/12/22
Japan: 22/12/1
USA: 12/1/22

Some items such as British chocolate and crisps are always short dated when they arrive to our warehouse. This is because of the time it takes for these products to land in Australia. Please keep this in mind when purchasing. If the product is close to or past its best before date, we will include this in the product description.

What are Pick & Mix Lollies?
Our Pick & Mix Lolly Bags are our most popular item! As their name suggests you have the option of 500g, 1kg and 2kg packs to choose from. In these packs you get an approximately even weight of each lolly you choose to make up the weight of the pack you selected. These lollies are mixed altogether into a yummy pack for your enjoyment!

Can I get a refund on my order?
We do not offer a refund for change of mind once your item has been packed and shipped. Pick & Mix orders are packed based on your selections so we do not offer a refund for change of mind. If you receive your order and are not happy with it, please contact us at hello@lollyhaven.com.au and we will be more than happy to assist. In some cases, a refund may be issued for change of mind prior to your order being packed. We have a 20% cancellation fee to cover the cost of administration, fees & surcharges incurred upon placement of your order (Visa, Mastercard, PayPal, Afterpay, ZipPay) or any other payment method used.

What happens if you run out of stock while packing my order?
If we run out of stock of a particular lolly, our staff will try and contact you to discuss another option or include more of your selections to make up the weight. Due to the volume of orders we receive, we may not always contact you if an item is out of stock. You will receive a note in your order if there was something out of stock at the time of packing.

Do you offer a gift-wrapping service?
Yes, we offer gift wrapping! For $4 you can have your order boxed & gift wrapped with a special card added in. We can write a message on the card or leave it blank. If you are interested in this, all you need to do is check the 'gift wrap my order' button in your cart. You can then choose your gift wrapping type and add in a note.

Can I make a request for products you don’t currently stock?
Definitely! If you get in contact with us, we’ll place your request on our product request list. Please keep in mind that this is just a suggestion, and we unfortunately can’t guarantee we will be able to find this product or decide to start stocking it, but we do appreciate the suggestions!
