We do not offer refunds on purchases unless they are deemed by staff to be faulty. We do however offer exchanges if your size is found to be incorrect.

Will my order arrive in a single delivery?
Yes, all items ordered in a single transaction will be sent together. This includes, without exception, any items added to the cart which are advertised on Pre-Order. Adelaide United will always endeavour to be transparent with the expected release dates of the Pre-Order items however, we recommend if you wish to receive the available items at the time of purchase before the Pre-Order becomes in stock, that you should purchase your preferred items in separate transactions.
Additionally, but on rare occasions, customers’ orders may need to be sourced and supplied by various warehouse locations or drop-shipped from our licensed suppliers. If this is the case, your order may arrive at different times by multiple courier or delivery partners. Any costs associated with multiple deliveries is absorbed by Adelaide United. Ie. the shipping charge paid by the customer at checkout will not be exceeded even if numerous deliveries are required.
What happens if I am not home to receive my order?
If you miss your delivery and have not provided Authority To Leave in your Order Confirmation and Delivery Notes during checkout, Australia Posts’ courier partners may leave a card or note explaining how you can pick up your order from your local depot or arrange a re-delivery.
We recommend monitoring your order for any tracking updates.
Will I need to pay customs fees?
For International orders, please be aware that the customs departments within some countries may charge local taxes and duties on imported parcels. These charges are beyond our control as they are regulated by the government of that country and in the event that any import charges are enforced it will be the responsibility of the person receiving the goods to cover these.
International customers pay reduced prices on Adelaide United store products as the Australian Goods and Services Tax (GST -10%) is deducted from your total cart amount, which may assist to offset any customs costs associated on delivery.
