Ordering from our online store
Q: How do I place an order?
Navigate via the menu, or use the search to find the product you are looking for. Choose a product colour by clicking on the colour swatch, then choose the product size and insert the quantity of the product that you want to purchase. Then click "Add to Cart". Do this for one or more products and, when you are ready to checkout, click the shopping cart icon at the top right of your screen, then click "View Cart" to see your order. Once you have finalised your cart, please click the "Checkout" button and follow the onscreen prompts to place your order.
Q: What if I place an order and I find out the stock I ordered is not available?
This is a situation that rarely happens and Gilbert Netball is constantly working to limit this from happening. As a company, we run a live ordering system and stock can sometimes reflect incorrectly depending on stock levels. In this case, you can choose to purchase something else or we will refund you for the missing stock item. If a refund is processed, the money will reflect back into your bank account within 5-10 working days.
Q: How do I cancel an order?
If you have received an order confirmation email, and your order status says "Processing" or "In Picking" will we be able to immediately cancel your order and process a refund.
If you have received a shipment notification email, and your order status says "Complete", we will not be able to immediately cancel your order and process a refund. We will first have to retrieve the order from the courier and then we can process a refund.
Q: Can I make changes to my order after I have paid for it?
We do not allow changes to your order once your order status says "Processing in Warehouse". Please contact our support desk for more assistance to request an order cancellation.
