Will you send me some free samples?
Smart
Poppy has made the decision not to send samples out to people as this
would increase our expenses, and would mean our prices would have to
rise to cover the costs. We are taking every measure possible to keep
our costs low for you.We do not offer free samples unless specified on
our website for a limited time as part of a promotion. In most cases
the items we sell are widely available in retail outlets, should you
wish to check colour or scent.
Have you got the lipstick (or whatever) I am looking for?
Please
don't email us with this question - we PROMISE that whatever we have in
stock, it's already on the website. If you don't see it, we don't have
it.
We DO however listen to
customer requests - feel free to let us know what brands or items you'd
like, because every voice that we hear tells us what our customers
want, and influences what stock we purchase. We do want to please you!
How long will my order take to arrive?
Please always allow 2 working days for processing of your order. After that, times are as follows:
Please contact us if you want your order
sent by carrier pigeon. We don't take any responsibility for stains on
the packaging for orders sent this way.
What if my order hasn't arrived in the estimated time?
Please contact us if this happens. Please remember that Express Post Platinum is the only postage service we offer that has guaranteed delivery. To avoid risking items going lost in the post we urge you to select Express Post Platinum.
Please firstly check your account details in your Smart Poppy account
information to ensure your address was given to us correctly. If so,
and your package has taken more than a week to reach you (allow 2
working days for processing) then please contact us straight away, to
let us know your package is late.
After
that, there are a couple of things you can do. Firstly you should ask
at your local post office whether they are holding anything for you, in
case a card was left and you somehow did not receive it. If they don't
have anything waiting for you, ask them to give you the name of the
Australia Post collection centre that distributes the local mail and
you may be able to contact the centre to see if there are any packages
in your name there. This may well yield results.
It's
rare for packages to go missing completely and never show up, but on
the odd occasion, it does happen. Also, it is advisable to wait at
least a week, in case your package was given a scenic tour of the local
area by Australia Post on its way to you. This is unusual but can
happen at times, and it's wise to rule this error out before assuming
the package has been lost.
Please
note that all packages not sent Express Platinum carry an element of
risk. Occasionally packages are lost in the post and this is,
unfortunately, a symptom born of living in an imperfect world run by
those pesky, fallible human beings. Platinum packages that do become lost are the only orders that are
eligible for full replacement, and this is subject to stock
availability.
Where do you ship to?
We
ship to all locations within Australia. We do not ship internationally.
We may introduce this in future however right now, it is not possible
within our current shipping structure.
How safe is it to use my credit card on Smart Poppy?
It is very safe to use your credit card for making payments on Smart
Poppy. Our orders are processed through the Eway system which is SSL
encrypted.
SSL (Secure
Socket Layer) encrypts data, like credit cards numbers (as well other
personally identifiable information), which prevents the "bad guys"
from stealing your information for malicious intent. You know that
you're on an SSL protected page when the address begins with "https"
and there is a padlock icon at the bottom of the page. Look for the
HTTPS and the padlock during checkout.
Your
browser encrypts the data and sends to the receiving Web site
(2Checkout’s billing system). The SSL certificate helps to
prove the site belongs to who it says it belongs to and contains
information about the certificate holder, the domain that the
certificate was issued to, the name of the Certificate Authority who
issued the certificate, the root and the country it was issued in. This
means your personal information is very safe, and is not revealed to
anyone except the the credit card billing site.
All transactions are settled in Australian Dollars ($AUD).
What if I don’t like what I ordered?
We hope you love everything you purchase from us. However, we realize
that sometimes things don't work out, so we offer a no-questions-asked
return policy, whereby you can return anything you have ordered from
us, in exchange for store credit, not including the shipping costs.
However there will be no returns on sale items except as required by
law.
We strongly suggest
that you find out your skin type before selecting any skincare
products, as this will make it much easier for you to be able to select
products that will suit you. If you'd like us to recommend the products
that will be best suited to your skin, please contact us.
What about if the product breaks, is faulty, or is not what I ordered?
30-Day No Risk Money Back Guarantee
With our guarantee, contact us within 30 days of your purchase:
notify us by email of the reason for return,
and then return your item, properly packed (see below), with a copy of the invoice.
We're happy to provide a refund, replacement, or store credit. Please provide any instructions for specific details of a refund (eg your bank account details) or a replacement, to us in your package.
Do you sell products wholesale?
We do not sell wholesale, however, you will often find our prices are at or below wholesale prices. So do go ahead and place a large order!
How do you keep your prices so low?
When you got to DFO or other Factory Outlet type shopping centres, you go for the cheap prices. You know that when you get there, the decor may not be as spiffy as the regular shop, there might be boxes half unpacked, and the range will not be complete. But you know it will be cheap, and you're sure to get a bargain! That's the whole point of a Factory Outlet. Smart Poppy is a little like that, only prettier, and pleasant to shop at!
As a discount outlet, we only buy products we can sell to you at ridiculously low prices! Our aim is to sell to you at around half the retail price. Occasionally this is not possible but that is what we always strive to bring you. Great, isn’t it!
Because we’re an outlet, you will find that the makeup often doesn’t come in a box, or the box is damaged, or the product’s packaging has some cosmetic damage which has not affected the actual product you paid for. But the products are brand new, and the box is thrown away as soon as you rip it open! We saved you the trouble :)
