Payment
Pac Fire Online accepts PayPal, Credit Card (through the PayPal interface), Direct Deposit and Pac Fire Online Gift Vouchers as forms of payment. As a result of PayPal facilitating our payments online, we are able to take a wider range of card types through Pac Fire Online than we are able to accept through an over the phone purchase.
Stock will not be allocated to an order until funds have cleared through the Pac Fire bank account. For the fastest possible turn around and to secure stock at the point of order, please select Credit Card / PayPal or Pac Fire Online Gift Voucher as your payment method.
On occasion, orders will be held after payment has been made for the arrival of incoming stock. This is to save customers on freight. Customers will be notified as quickly as possible if an order is going to be held for the arrival of stock – notification will come via email or as a note on the online order.

Pac Fire Online Gift Vouchers are available for purchase through Pac Fire Online. They are a valid form of payment for all Pac Fire Online orders.
Your Pac Fire Online Gift Voucher cannot be redeemed for cash, another voucher or during a transaction over the phone.

Occasionally, an order will be held for the arrival of stock. This is to save customers on freight. Customers will be notified as quickly as possible if an order is going to be held for the arrival of stock – notification will come via email or as a note on the online order.

It’s important to note that Pac Fire’s responsibility for the goods ends when the elected freight provider has taken possession of the goods.
If you are not home at the time delivery you can issue an “authority to leave” allowing our carriers to leave the package unattended at your address without a signature. Pac Fire will not be responsible for any lost, stolen or damaged packages.
If no “authority to leave” has been issued or the carrier feels leaving the goods is unsafe, the order will be returned to the carriers depot for a short time then forwarded back to Pac Fire. Additional freight charges will apply for a returned or declined delivery.
At this time, Pac Fire cannot accept deliveries to a PO Box or Locked Bag though our online store as this attracts a freight surcharge from our couriers. Please email sales@pacfire.com.au or call 1300 731 800 for more information on our freight policy or to process an order to a PO Box or Locked Bag.
While we always strive to ensure on time delivery, there might be instances when the package may be delivered past the estimated delivery date.
Invoicing
It is standard practice for Pac Fire to send a physical copy of the invoice with the goods to the shipping address as noted on the order. If this is not suitable for your situation please use the notes section during checkout to specify your preferred invoice delivery method.
An electronic copy of the invoice will be issued on order completion via Pac Fire online.
