Domestic parcels misplaced by Australia Post

If your parcel has not been delivered after a period of 10 business days from the date of posting, please contact ARB Games.  An official Customer Service Complaint form will be lodged with Australia Post on your behalf as a matter of courtesy.  Australia Post will then commence an investigation into your missing parcel and this process usually takes approximately 6 weeks to complete. 

If a missing parcel cannot be located, Australia Post may decide to issue compensation up to a value of $50.00 AUD.  Please note that compensation is not mandatory for any missing parcel sent via normal post and any decision to award compensation is entirely at Australia Post’s discretion.

However, compensation is mandatory for all missing parcels that have been sent with Registered Post, up to a value of $100.00 (or higher if additional insurance has been paid for).

ARB Games will send a free replacement for your missing order, if and when compensation is received from Australia Post.
