I have ordered an item that is no longer available
Mathers is committed to providing exceptional customer service. We endeavour to make sure that all products listed on our website are currently in stock and pricing is true and correct. In the unlikely event that any item(s) from your order are unavailable, we will notify you and provide a full refund as soon as possible.
Can I change the delivery address after I have ordered?
Once you have placed your order, we start picking and packing your items as quickly as possible. This helps us to send your goods efficiently but this also means that we’re unable to make changes to your order; including delivery address, changing colours/sizes or removing items.
How can I track my order?
Once your online order is dispatched, you will receive an email to your nominated email address. This will include your delivery details, tracking number and a link that will allow you to track the status of your delivery. Should this be missing, please check your junk/spam folder or alternatively contact our Customer Care team and they will be happy to assist.
Why have I received two tracking numbers?
Orders containing more than one item may be split into multiple parcels. In the event of this occurring, you will receive separate emails from StarTrack with different tracking numbers for each parcel. Please be assured that you will not incur any additional shipping charges.
Will I need to be present at my nominated delivery address when my order arrives?
For all deliveries in Australia, authority to leave is preselected at checkout so at the time of delivery, you will not need to be present and your parcel will be left in a safe place if the driver deems it is safe to do so. If you have unticked this option, you will be required to sign for the parcel.
Please note: If unattended or the driver deems the location is not safe to leave the parcel, your order will be delivered to your nearest post office for collection. If this occurs you will receive details from Australia Post with the collection information.
