Purchasing goods
Our Online Store sets out the details of the goods available for purchase, including their price in Australian dollars. Please be aware that prices and availability may change from time to time without notice. Some goods may differ slightly in visual appearance (for example, colour or scale) to the images depicted on our Online Store due to photographic and screen differences.
On our Online Store we sell products to support the operational activities of our not-for-profit purposes. Please carefully read the description of the condition of the goods before placing orders.
Goods for sale on our Online Store are only available for delivery in Australia. All Online Store orders must be paid by Visa, MasterCard, American Express or PayPal. Prices listed on our Online Store include GST where applicable. You may not purchase goods from our Online Store for resale or other commercial purposes.
Orders
After you place an order, a contract between us for the purchase of the goods will only be formed once we have accepted your order by sending you a shipment confirmation email. We may not accept an order from you for any reason, including but not limited to unavailability of the goods, an issue with your payment, an error on our Online Store relating to the order, or we suspect your order is fraudulent or unlawful. Please be aware that while a good is in your shopping basket, it may be sold to another person and become unavailable.
We also may cancel an order after it has been confirmed if there is an error on our Online Store relating to the order (such as an incorrect price, description error, or the product is no longer available), there are issues with your payment, or we reasonably suspect fraudulent or unlawful behaviour.
We will retain title in all goods until full payment is received. Once you receive delivery of the goods, risk in the goods will pass to you.
Delivery
Shipping costs will be clearly identified at checkout. Standard shipping costs $10 and delivery is free on purchases over $100.
Delivery times are estimates only and your delivery may be delayed due to circumstances outside our reasonable control. We will take reasonable steps to notify you of any delay. If a product has not been delivered to you, or there is an issue with your delivery, please contact us at contact@portofhope.co.

For all returns please contact us on contact@portofhope.co. Products purchased on our Online Store cannot be returned in physical stores.
Returning faulty products
We are committed to providing quality products to our customers.

You will need to provide proof of purchase. You may also be required to provide further information or photos of the product for assessment.
If the problem with the product is confirmed, and it is a minor problem, we will choose whether to repair, replace or refund the product.
If the problem is a major problem under the Australian Consumer Law, then you are entitled to choose whether to receive a replacement or refund. Any refund will be made to the same card which you originally used to purchase the good. We will also cover your reasonable costs of returning the product to us.
If the product is found not to have a problem, is out of warranty, has a problem due to fair wear and tear or your misuse of the product, or you otherwise do not have a remedy under the Australian Consumer Law, we will contact you to determine whether you want us to dispose of the product or return the product to you at your expense.
