Why does international shipping cost so much? Our tennis rackets are shipped from Australia and our Australian customers receive the cheapest rate.
For clothing and accessories, our shipping costs are calculated from factories in the USA. North American customers receive the cheapest rate.
Why have I received more than one package? Some of our products take longer to manufacture than others so we send out what we can when it is manufactured. Some of our products are delivered from warehouses in different locations. For these reasons, sometimes you may receive more than 1 package even though you only placed one order.
Why is shipping so expensive for small orders? Shipping is more expensive for orders under $150. This is because we ship from various warehouses but only charge you once for shipping to keep the cost down for our customers. This discount flows through on orders over $150.
What quality are your tennis rackets? Our tennis rackets are designed in AUSTRALIA and manufactured in China. Our rackets are tested after production and before shipment by an independent third party agency. Only those rackets that pass the testing phase are shipped to Australia.
