Shipping Internationally !!

So, I have been asked a lot if I ship internationally the short answer is YES!

When I built this site, I didn’t really think out the whole international thing, and the API for Auspost on the whole woocommerce thing is not great, so I can do it manually. If you are in a country outside of the Australia or New Zealand, send me an email to sales@fiberific.com.au listing out what you want, and your address, I will get back to you ASAP, with a postage quote, and then if you agree to it I will send you a paypal invoice, and post out your goodies. To get a rough idea here are some of Australia Posts, international shipping costs.

United States up to 500g

Tracked $23.72, Economy Air (not tracked,no insurance, not replaceable if lost) $15.85

There is also the possibilty (depending on what you are buying ) that your items can fit into a large envelope that can be posted economy Air (up to 250g) for $8

United Kingdom up to 500g

Tracked $28.32, Economy Air (not tracked,no insurance, not replaceable if lost) $20.46

Large Letter Economy Air (up to 250g) $8.00

 

I hope this helps answer some questions for you all 😉

Post Bendigo, sickness and delays.

I am not sure if you caught my little live streams that I did while I was at the Australian Sheep and Wool show, it was cold on the Sunday, and I was being very naughty,

I had a lot of fun at Bendigo, It was wonderful meeting so many of you! Putting real human faces to names and handles was awesome!

I want give a huge shoutout to Emma, who is my every trusty side kick at the Sheep and wool show, she keeps me fed and coffeed (she doesn’t spit in every cup).  She keeps me sane, but encouraging my insanity.  We laugh so much that it doesn’t feel like work.

My 2 day drive home was uneventful, just how I like it!

After getting home and finding my daughter sick, I had to slow my plans down a little, mum duties do come first, especially when the girl is sick.  I worked at getting my website updated and reopened.  And got the first round of reordering done, then promptly went downhill.

My dear daughter had shared her cold with me.  So we both had colds, then we both had the flu.  And you know how that goes, fevers, chills, and all that jazz.  I am sorry to say that everything took a backseat. I was laid up in bed for what felt like MONTHs, even though in reality I know it was more like 10 days. But in that 10 days No orders were sent, or made.  So I am behind. Really really behind.  But I am on the mend now, so today, I am aiming to start working on the backlog.  Orders out are my priority.  For those of you patiently waiting, I appreciate you patience and I will be adding in a little thank you for your forbearance.

I will be updating over the next few days as I catch up on things and reschedule things.

Thanks for your understanding guys

New Postage Option & Instagram Winner Announced!

Hi everyone!!!

I am currently trialing an option for $3 surface mail no tracking for small items like knitting needles and crochet hooks.  By choosing this option you accept that this item cannot be traced and if lost by Australia Post, Fiberific! is not responsible for replacing your order. So while the option is there, I personally prefer the Flat rate $8 post option as it is trackable. This choice is now yours.

2017 is a going to be a year of new beginnings. I plan on leaving the Casa De Fiberific on more occasions! So first Cab off the Rank is Caffeinated Crafters.  I realised that one of the big reasons I don’t go out is there is nowhere sort of local to me that has a night time Stitch and bitch kinda group.. So I have bitten the bullet so to speak and have started one!

See you next week!
