Explaining Availability Whilst viewing individual products throughout the store, you will notice our estimated availability of the item. What exactly does it mean? The estimated availability is the average time it takes for each item to be prepared to ship from our Store. Please keep in mind that this is an estimate only and is by no means set in concrete. Certain products will leave here earlier than the estimate, and others a day or 2 later. This is especially true for items with a variety of sizes or designs where one may be in stock and another size on backorder. If you require an item by a certain date, please ensure you contact us as to its availability before ordering. Why do some items take longer than others? Whilst we stock a wide range of the products listed on this site, certain lines need to be shipped in from our suppliers. Other lines are made to order. Estimated Shipping Times Once your parcel leaves 4x4 Store Australia, the time it takes for shipping will depend on the carrier used.
