SHIPPING METHODS
 Back to Top

Your order will normally be processed within 1-6 hrs of from it being placed. The stock is ready for processing and shipping within our warehouse facilities. You will receive email notifications for each stage of the processing and delivery process. If your order is received on weekends or outside factory opening hours it may be processed or it may be shipped the next business day. Generally if the order is received before 4pm it is shipped that day and for most capital cities within Australia there is next day delivery.

Within Australia

The following table represents the two shipping options you will have selected during the checkout process. The costs are calculated directly from Australia Post systems and we do not charge any processing fees. The data below may change from time to time as Australia Post changes their pricing system without notification, however your charges are correct in your order with a realtime lookup calculation to Australia Post based upon the garments and their weights you may have ordered and your delivery address.

Destination Shipping Method Cost Delivery Time Signature/Tracking
Australia Australia Post Regular Parcels from $6.95 (+) weight & dest dependent 1-2 business  
Australia Australia Post Express Parcels $11.99 Next business day delivery Signature and Tracking

We offer guaranteed delivery on Australia Post Express Parcels and will re-ship and replace your order free of charge if the parcel is lost. However, we do not accept responsibility if you select Australia Post Regular Parcels and the the parcel is lost. We highly recommend you select Express parcels within Australia.

 

International

International orders are shipped via Australia Post Airmail. The delivery time is generally between 3 and 10 business days. We offer two methods and the costs are calculated directly from Australia Post in realtime and there are two many variables to list pricing.

Destination Shipping Method Delivery Time Signature/Tracking
International Australia Post Airmail 3-10 business days  
International Registered Australia Post Airmail 3-10 business days Signature and Tracking

We offer guaranteed delivery on Registered Australia Post Airmail and will re-ship and replace your order free of charge if the parcel is lost. However, we do not accept responsibility if you select Australia Post Airmail without signature and the the parcel is lost. We highly recommend you select Registered Australia Post Airmail as a preferred shipping method. Currently this is an extra $5 charge from Australia Post and we automatically ship it for you as Registered.

Once your order has shipped you will receive an email notification. If you have selected a traceable method (Registered International Airmail), you can track it by logging on to your account, retreiving the tracking number associated with your order and entering this number into Australia Post Tracking Facility here.   Remember, we can only track your order after it has been shipped.

Please note that we do not refund or exchange any returns if goods have been worn, soiled or the tags and protectors have been removed.

Return costs are the responsibility of the customer. If an order is partially refunded, and a complimentary shopping voucher has been used the value of the voucher will be proportionally deducted from the refunded amount.

Fill out the Return/Exchange Form on the back of the tear away portion of your invoice, indicating the following:

• what you are sending back
• the reason why (use the codes)
• and what you want done (exchange or refund or credit).
 

Return the form with the merchandise you want exchanged/refunded/credited any way that is convenient for you. We recommend using a traceable/registered method as we do not accept responsibility for lost returns packages.

There is an address label on the bottom of the Return/Exchange Form that is provided for your convenience. Return costs are the responsibility of the customer. We regret that we cannot accept "bill recipient" or "COD" packages.

We will gladly answer any questions you might have regarding returns or service. Just email us service@watersun.com or call +61 3 9 466 4144 9am - 5pm Australian EST. You may also download an Order Return Form here.

  • Should an requested exchange garment not be available we will contact you by email to determine whether you wish to wait for stock, or have a refund or a store credit in the form of a gift certificate. This credit will never expire.
  • If a discount coupon was used the discounted amount is not refunded but will be applied to an exchange.
  • If a gift certificate was used this will be re-credited and notification sent to you with the new value.

SIZING INFORMATION
 Back to Top

We have designed our swimwear range such that you may select any top and mix and match with any bottom. By following the size charts you will be able to select the perfect size.


GIFT CERTIFICATES
 Back to Top

Gift certificates may be purchased for amounts between $10 and $500. The validity period may vary from time to time - from 3 months to a year from issue date. If a store credit is issued for a returned garment, the gift certificate will not expire.

There are no restrictions on the use of the gift certificate and it may be used for products or shipping. Unlike a discount coupon code which is entered on the first checkout page, the gift certificate number is entered during the payment methods page. If there is insufficient value on the gift certificate, the payment page will prompt for the difference between the gift certificate value and the shopping bag total value.

If gift certificates are used in conjunction with a promotional code or discount code (or voucher), please enter the discount code first at the first page of checkout and then enter the gift certificate number on the checkout payment page. The process will automatically determine the correct payment.
