Order information
Payment: Our methods of payment online are Mastercard, Visa, Paypal, Apple Pay and American Express. We do NOT charge fees on credit card use. Hop hates when shops do that to him, so he refuses to do that to his customers.
Online payments are encrypted through the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS). Your purchase transaction data is stored only as long as is necessary to complete your purchase transaction. After that is complete (we are talking seconds), your purchase transaction information is deleted.
At no time do we store or record your credit card details on our server or someone else's server.
Stickers
All orders ship with stickers. If you didn't get stickers, check the parcel, sometimes we attach them to the box, sometimes we hide them in the box. If you didn't get stickers, please send an email and we'll get some posted out.
We are limited in what stickers we can send out. Not many brands allow us to buy stickers. Check out our sticker page for the latest sticker we have and are including in your order.

When things go wrong
No one wants an order to go wrong but we ship a lot of product every week and we do make errors. The important thing is not to get angry. We like to do the right thing. If it is important, you need the right product ASAP, we will do our best to make the situation right. If that means extra stickers, an apology, a refund, a bunch of flowers, then that what we'll try to do. We are limited in the speed of how we ship products to some areas, for example: if you are in Western Australia, we can't air freight a longboard overnight to you, it is just too big.

Refunds
If you want a refund, that is not a problem, we do them fast and with a smile. If you return the product in resaleable condition (un-used) then we are happy to do a refund. You don't need an excuse, you don't need to be angry or disappointed, the decision is yours, we wont try to talk you out of it. We refund the same way you paid, we don't like doing store credits.
We like returns for credit to be done within 30 days of purchase.

I want to speak to a human
Sometimes technology is not the answer. If you need to speak to a human, we list our phone number in the footer. If no one answers, please try again at a later time, it is not personal, we still love you. We get busy at certain times, and we can't answer the phone and we don't have an answering machine.

Afternoons and on weekends are not good times to call. In the afternoons we are usually assembling longboards, and packing them in boxes to meet our 4pm Australia Post pick up.
