Shipping & Insurance Policy
Last Updated: 9 / 05 / 2025
Introduction
At NextGen Collectors we ship exclusively with Australia Post for most domestic orders, and we apply TNT or FedEx only when higher-value or international conditions require it. The fixed-rate tables below show exactly what you will pay at checkout. All services include tracking and Signature on Delivery.
Domestic Shipping – Australia Post (shown at checkout)
A. Express Post (1-4 business days) – insurance included
Cart Value (AUD) | Flat Shipping Rate |
---|---|
$0 – $149 | $18.00 |
$150 – $1 999 | $22.50 |
$2 000 – $4 999 | $26.00 |
- Mandatory insurance is baked into the rate; cover is calculated at $2.50 per $100 of item value.
- If your order reaches $5 000 or above, Express is replaced by TNT (see below).
B. Standard Post (2-8 business days) – no insurance
Cart Value (AUD) | Flat Shipping Rate |
---|---|
$0 – $149 | $14.50 |
$150 – $1 999 | $17.50 |
$2 000 – $5 000 | $20.00 |
Select Standard if you prefer not to pay for insurance; you accept all risk beyond minimal carrier cover.
C. TNT Australia (Overnight Express)
- Orders ≥ $5 000 AUD: TNT is mandatory (our system automatically upgrades and applies TNT’s insurance rate).
- Orders < $5 000 AUD: TNT may appear as an optional upgrade at checkout for eligible postcodes.
- TNT shipments always include insurance and require Signature on Delivery.
