FAQs

What are my shipping options?
divide.gifACF480F.gif

We provide THREE shipping options.

* Airmail is our standard option and is included in all pricing you see on the screen (except for our Express Packs.) This highly reliable service delivers to the US & Pacific Rim within a target delivery window of  4 to 10 business days. We find that for major centers (eg NY or LA) that delivery is usually closer to the 4 day mark than the 10 day mark. 

* Airmail with Insurance & Tracking. This service has the same parameters and delivery targets as  Airmail, but your package is insured and we can provide a tracking number and url as well, for your convenience. On packages over $320 or over 12 packs in size, we add this as a omplimentarys ervice.

* Express Packs are priced to include an Express Courier International service. This is a 2 to 4 business day service to the US & Pacific Rim, and requires a signature on delivery. Tracking number and url provided on your order history.(Additionally, most parcels can be upgraded to an Express service, but due to weight and shipping vagaries, you may pay a penalty on smaller parcels. We recommend using an Express Pack as the most cost-effective option if you are requiring your gums more rapidly.)


 

Why does product pricing change from time to time ?
divide.gifACF480F.gif

Our underlying database is maintained in NZD, but for your convenience we display all pricing in USD as a default.  When the respective strengths or weaknesses of the USD and NZD fluctuate, then so does the price shown on screen. On screen pricing is generated "on the fly" so is up to date. So as currency fluctuations occur there may, on occasion, be small apparent "increases" or " decreases" in price. We are very reluctant to increase prices as we are committed to delivering high quality products to you at competitive prices.

What happens when my credit card is charged ?
divide.gifACF480F.gif

We use an automated online payments solution. To translate this, this means that in the seconds following your pressing the Pay Now button, our system interrogates your bank's system to charge your card. We use 128 bit SSL encrypted technology and have a THAWT secure certificate, for your peace of mind.

Can anything go wrong with this system ?  Well yes, 2 things can occasionally occur.

The first is that if a client double-clicks the Pay Now button then, on occasion, your card may be double-charged. Usually we will pick that and contact you to clarify your intention.

The second is more unusual. Some transactions will be declined and marked as "do not honour." This often surprises our clients who have no reason  to expect their card to be declined (!)
So why has the card been declined ?
It is our understanding and experience that credit card companies maintain security profiles on their clients. If an unusual transaction occurs, then that transaction may be blocked by the card-holder's credit card company for security reasons. Because we are based in New Zealand, this is sometimes enough to generate a block from the credit card company if, for example, the client has only previously used their card within the US. Once again, if this occurs we will usually contact you to explain that this is the case ( if you haven't already sent us a " why won't you honour my card?" email  :)
