Postage and Shipping Rates within Australia

Prices do not include packing and postage.

Note that items can be registered with Australia Post for $2.95 (signature on delivery). You can insure items for $1.50 per $100 (or part thereof) of declared value. Brunel Hobbies will not be responsible for the non-delivery of items that are not insured. All parcels sent within Australia are tracked and we only send parcels that are tracked overseas. 

Brunel Hobbies add $2.50 for packing onto the postage or delivery costs.

The postage for parcels up to 5kg is now a flat rate regardless of destination within Australia.

For items up to 500g the cost is $9.70 + $2.50 for packing (total $12.20).

For items over 500g to 5kg postage will be charged at cost plus P & P. 

For items over 5kg up to 22kg the postage rate depends on the destination based on Postcode, weight and size. However we will endeavour to use Australia Post Parcel Satchels if possible to keep postage costs as cheap as possible.

Note however that Australia Post charges also by a volume assumed weight so a light but volumous item may attract a higher postage rate than you might expect.

Customers have the choice of using Australia Post or Courier. Depending on destination couriers are often close to the same price as Australia Post or a little cheaper. They will also normally deliver within one to three days depending on destination. We compare courier prices and will choose the cheapest.

Paint can be mailed to all destinations in Australia. Spray cans can be mailed within Australia but must go by surface mail and will usually take longer for delivery than normal mail. This means that we cannot mail spray paint to some destinations as they are only serviced by air mail. This includes Townsville and Darwin for instance.

Brunel Models products can be shipped for a flat rate Australia wide if ordered through the Brunel Models website.

International Postage and Shipping

Postage and shipping rates are charged at cost plus $2.50 for packing. Both Australia Post and DHL are available. All items will be sent by standard airmail and are trackable.

Paint can be mailed to most destinations internationally. Spray cans cannot be mailed internationally.

Brunel Hobbies is not responsible for any of these duties, costs or fees. We cannot and will not be responsible for communicating with your local customs or postal authorities to facilitate the arrival of your purchases. Brunel Hobbies cannot give you an estimate of these costs and charges before your purchase.
