Shipping
All goods are packaged carefully and beautifully. We love gift wrapping and making the parcel very special for you to receive. If you do not want gift wrapping please tell us in the note to us section of the cart.
All weights are volumetric. Even though a product may weigh very little, its volumetric weight will cost more than its real weight to send.
eg. a drying rack is 3kg, volumetrically it is just over 10kg.

| < .2kg | $4 | $4 | $4 |
| < .9kg | $6 | $6 | $6 |
| < 1.8kg | $6 | $7 | $7 |
| < 10kg | $6 | $8.50 | $11.50 |

| < 40kg | $6 | $18 | $28 |
Rural delivery - plus $3.00 to North Island and South Island charges.
For orders or products over 10kg (either by weight or volume) heavy goods freight is charged.
Auckland does not have heavy goods shipping. It remains at $6.00
We use PBT couriers and CourierPost.
If you or your gift recipient are not home (and you have not suggested they can leave at the door), a card to call will be left in the letterbox. We use CourierPost for PO Box addresses or if you live on Waiheke Island and some rural delivery addresses. We will always endeavor to write the phone number on the package. Your parcel should arrive within 5 working days of receipt of order, rural delivery may take a little bit longer. This is subject to product availability, we will always advise if there is an expected delay.
Please remember to let us know if your address is a "rural delivery" by selecting the correct freight area and choosing rural delivery.
If the incorrect freight option is selected, we can contact you by email to arrange payment of the difference.
International
We do send orders internationally. Depending on where you are, freight will be determined at the checkout, except for large bulky items we quote the freight separately. Our prices include NZ GST (goods and services tax), GST is not applicable for overseas orders. So we put that value toward the cost of shipping. Therefore the freight charges shown on the cart are less than what they actually cost us. If you have any questions about this, please don't hesitate to contact us.

Do I need a PayPal account to make a purchase?No. PayPal has optimized the checkout experience with an exciting improvement to their payment flow.
For new buyers, signing up for a PayPal account is now optional. This means Father Rabbit Limited customers can complete their payments first, and then decide whether to save their information in a PayPal account for future purchases.
Here’s how this easier checkout works:
- Customers enter their name and shipping address.
- They’re prompted for their credit card, email address, and phone number.
- (Optional) After reviewing their information, they may choose to save their information by creating a PayPal account to make future transactions faster.
Please note that PayPal’s fraud prevention measures remain in effect for buyers who use this checkout even though the customer hasn’t created an account.

Currency Info
All prices are in New Zealand Dollars and Father Rabbit Limited charges your credit card in New Zealand dollars. You can view different currency prices by changing to another currency in the footer of the website. You can choose USD, Euro, GBP or AUD.
If you live outside New Zealand, and have a foreign currency credit card, the New Zealand amount will be charged to your card using your provider's current exchange rates. Please remember that buy/sell exchange rates can be different depending on when your credit card provider processes the transaction, so the amount that appears on your credit card statement may be slightly different to the converted invoiced amount. Credit card companies may also charge international payment fees and/or commission for selling you foreign currency. Please contact your credit card provider directly for their terms and conditions.
