Ordering Saraband Music's Editions
and
Hammer & Tongs Reproductions

General information:
Please make all money orders/cheques/bank drafts payable to Saraband Music.

Postal information within Australia:
Express Post is used for all orders where possible. Rates are $5.30 for up to 500g (paper only) or $7.40 for up to 500g (for other items), and $10.50 for up to 3Kg. Express Post can be more economical for interstate orders than using ordinary parcel post. All orders will be packed as economically as possible, but always to avoid damage in transit. If goods arrive damaged, you should take all wrappings and the damaged items to Australia Post as soon as possible. They should assess the damage and refund money as long as the goods were packed properly and it is obvious that damage was caused in transit.

Postage and insurance to countries other than Australia:
All parcels will be despatched via Skippy Post (see www.skippypost.com.au), and some may be insured at the customer's expense; Saraband Music reserves the right to insure all parcels with an invoice total of over $100. Customers may request that I do not insure your parcel, but it will be sent by airmail regardless of the method you have indicated (in order to minimise the time for delivery and decrease the time hanging about to get lost or damaged), and Saraband Music assumes absolutely no responsibility in the event of loss or damage. If a parcel is insured, Saraband Music will claim on the insurance and replace the goods as soon as possible after the money is received.

Three methods of mailing are available:
Airmail (1 week - 10 days)
Surface mail (up to 3 months)
Please note that Economy Air has been abolished by Australia Post, and that surface mail is no longer available from Australia to the Asia/Pacific region.
