Purchasing

When you place an order to purchase a product on our website (www.surfaceart.com.au) your order represents an offer to us to purchase a product at the price stated on the website. Your offer to purchase is accepted when your credit card is charged. An email confirmation will be sent to your nominated email confirming the details of your order. The contract will be filed. All items offered on our website are subject to availability.

Surface Art Pty Ltd reserves the right to cancel an order if there is a problem with stock; if so, we will refund your card as soon as possible. We may also cancel an order if the payment appears to be fraudulent.

You are not permitted to resell Surface Art products to a third party without prior written consent from Surface Art Pty Ltd.

Payment

All prices are listed in Australian Dollars (AUD) and include Australian GST. When you order online you agree to pay the stated price for that product and any applicable delivery charges.

International orders which are GST exempt will have the tax adjusted accordingly.

Payment can be made by Visa or MasterCard. We also offer PayPal and PayPal Payin4 as options.
