Processing and Shipping
We process all orders within 48 hours and ship them out as soon as possible. Our products are shipped in secure cardboard boxes and handled by proved courier companies. This means you should receive your order within 2-4 working days after processing anywhere in New Zealand. Allow an extra day for rural delivery.
Freight and Packaging Costs
Freight charges are a function of product weights, cubic volume and freight destination; we automatically calculate the freight costs in our secure shopping area for you in order to make your shopping experience easier.
To check the cost of shipping, click on the “checkout button” on the “shopping cart” page. This will take you to the customer details page, where you can find the various rates for shipping in the drop down menu within the contact details area.
Hint: We urge you to experiment with different weight thresholds to achieve the best value for your shipping dollar by adding or subtracting items from your shopping cart and viewing the real-time changes in shipping costs that occur.
We at Asian Food Online believe we have chosen the best shipping rates for our customers, however if you wish to organise your own pick up then contact one of our customer service representatives with all the details and we will accordingly refund the entire freight portion.
Refund/Return and Replacement Policy
We take pride in sourcing high quality products from all around the world and locally. We guarantee the quality and value of our products. If for any reason you are not satisfied with the product, please contact our customer services department and we will either:
- Replace the product
- Exchange it for a product of the same value; or
- the total amount of the product will be refunded
This is provided that the goods are returned within 14 days of receipt, after instructions from a customer service representative. The cost of return shipping shall be the responsibility of the customer. If the error is our fault we will happily refund the shipping costs on a case by case basis and either; exchange the product, issue store credit, or give a cash refund.
Stock Availability
Due to the volatile nature of the international food market we do not guarantee availability of all of our products and brands. We will make every effort to ensure we have the products you order in stock. Orders which are at least 90% complete will be shipped and the resultant shipping charges will be adjusted (lowered) as needed. We will advise you if certain products are out of stock. Out of stock items are not automatically back-ordered.
Substitution Policy
If you would like to have products substituted when the one you select is out of stock then please tick the “allow substitution box” in the customer information form under contact details. If the substitution is significantly different then we will get in contact with you and ask you if this is a suitable substitution.
