Large, fragile & bulk items
Some large items and bulk orders are charged shipping at cost price, and free shipping does not apply. Free delivery does not apply to orders over 5kg in total weight, or certain oversized, fragile and/or heavy items. If free shipping does not apply to an item, it will say on the item's product page and at the checkout. All items are eligible for free in store pickup.
Orders over 5kg, or oversized, fragile or heavy orders ship with Sendle, and cost is calculated at checkout. Cost depends on the size and weight of the package, as well as the destination postcode. We charge cost price for delivery with Sendle. Any questions please get in touch with us.
Some large items, liquids and items with batteries are unable to be shipped overseas, sorry. Contact us for more information.
Delivery times & coverage
All orders are dispatched in 1-2 business days.
Express Post delivery includes two business day delivery (sometimes even faster) within the Australia Express Post delivery network and fastest possible delivery for other areas.
The national two business day delivery network operates between Australian capital city CBDs (excluding Darwin) and some major centres. Orders sent to Western Australian addresses will arrive in 1-2 business days, if not the next day.
Australia Post Express mail has delivery confirmation and tracking included and does not require a signature for delivery.
Sometimes deliveries can take slightly longer to remote areas and can also depend on Australia Post's workload. Delivery times can slow down at peak periods such as just before Christmas and times of high network demand.
For more information on delivery times and coverage see this page from Australia Post.

Returns & Exchanges
Returns Policy
We offer easy returns. If you change your mind (it happens to the best of us), or wish to return an unwanted gift, we would love to help you exchange or refund your purchase if returned within 30 days of delivery. To begin a return please visit My Orders & Start a Return page.
Return shipping isn't covered. For convenience we can provide you with a flat rate prepaid return label at a cost of AU$9.95.
Please note: Exchanges are processed as a refund and a new order. Please see 'Exchanges' section below for more information.
Refunds will only be sent to the original purchaser's method of payment.
All items must be returned in original, unused condition with all packaging and tags still in place. This includes all dust bags, labels and product boxes.
Please remember it can take some time for your bank or credit card company to process and post the refund.
If you elect to return your items to us yourself, we recommend using a service that offers tracking, such as registered post, for peace of mind that your order arrives safely back to us. If we don’t receive it, we can’t give you your money back.
Things that can't be returned:
- Promotional codes are not eligible for refund.
- 'Large, fragile and bulk items' aren't able to be returned online.
- Except where the goods were damaged, faulty or incorrectly supplied, only the item will be refunded, not initial postage.
- Sale items cannot be exchanged or refunded.
- Gift Certificates and eGift cards are non-returnable.
- If the product is ruined or used the product can not be returned.
Start a Return
To start a return, visit My Orders & Start a Return page prior to shipping any returns back to us. No returns will be accepted without our prior approval. Once logged in, select the order and the item/s you wish to return, and select a reason for return. Please note we may require images of damaged goods or packaging to initiate a replacement or refund.
Items sent back to us without first requesting a return will not be accepted. We will notify you once we’ve received and inspected your return. If approved, you’ll be automatically refunded on your original payment method.
Return shipping isn't covered. For convenience we can provide you with a flat rate prepaid return label at a cost of $9.95AUD.
International Returns
Return shipping on international orders is the responsibility of the purchaser for full refund on price of goods. To avoid any customs charges please clearly mark international returns packages 'RETURNED GOODS'.
Any charges incurred are the responsibility of the customer. Compendium Design Store is not responsible for any return customs charges incurred. If a package is unclaimed you might have to pay a handling fee.
Exchanges
Exchanges are processed as a return for a refund, and a new order. Complete the purchase of alternative products either online or in store.
We are always happy to exchange an item if the product and packaging is in an 'as new' condition within 30 days of the date of delivery. Exchanges should be made by placing a new order and returning the original order. This method helps ensure you get what you're after as quickly as possible, rather than waiting for it to reach us and potentially selling out in the meantime.
The customer is responsible for the return postage cost on exchanges. For convenience, we offer a prepaid return shipping label (in Australia only) at a flat rate of $9.95AUD. Please note that the return postage cost will be deducted from your refund.
Except where the goods were damaged, faulty or incorrectly supplied only the item will be refunded, not initial postage.
When returning your item(s) we recommend that you purchase a registered post option, Express Post and/or insurance so that if your package goes missing you can track it down.
If the customer is exchanging products, shipping fees will apply to the exchanged item(s) and discount codes cannot be exchanged.
Late or missing refunds (if applicable)
If you haven’t received a refund yet, first check your bank account again after a few days. Then contact your credit card company, it may take some time before your refund is officially posted. Next contact your bank. There is often some processing time before a refund is posted. If you’ve done all of this and you still have not received your refund yet, please contact us.
Incorrect and damaged deliveries
Please inspect your order when you receive it and contact us immediately if the item is defective, damaged or if you receive the wrong item, so that we can evaluate the issue and make it right. If it was a gift and more than 30 days have passed please get in touch with us. In the unlikely event you received an incorrect or faulty item, you're eligible for a return or exchange.
We will cover the cost of postage for new items (or refund original postage cost if you ordered online). Please contact us on hello@compendiumstore.com.au before sending your order back so that we can approve the return and issue you with a prepaid shipping label so that you won't need to pay for your return shipping.
We work hard to ensure that all of our products are represented accurately online, checked thoroughly before dispatch, and that all goods are packaged securely for transit. If an item(s) arrives broken, please take photographs of the damaged item(s) and its packaging to provide to us to substantiate your claim.
If it is no longer possible to replace the product we will provide a full refund or your choice of equivalent product value or alternative colour/size/style etc. If a suitable replacement is unavailable, we will refund your purchase price in full.
Depending on the nature of the damage, we may opt to retrieve the affected item from you, at our expense, so please do not dispose of it until your replacement claim is approved and completed.
Some of our items are handcrafted and made from natural materials. For these items, listed measurements and colours are a guide only and small variations in colour, form and finish are normal. Such variations are an intrinsic part of handcrafted products and/or natural materials, and are not considered ‘faults’, ‘defects’ or ‘damage'.
Faulty items & warranty claims
Faulty items will only be accepted if the goods are delivered to you damaged or there is a subsequent manufacturing fault identified within a period of 2 months after delivery.
Many of our brands offer their own warranties, for example the Bellroy 3 year warranty. Please contact us to make a manufacturer's warranty claim. Please do not return the item(s) to the manufacturer.
All items returned as faulty will be inspected and any items deemed to be subject to wear and tear subsequent to receipt by the buyer will not be accepted as faulty.
