Delivery

How can I track my order?

Once a customer has placed an order through Co-Mac, the order is processed and dispatched to our Warehouse. Our Warehouse Staff pick and pack your order, and the Courier collects within the hour. Once the order has been invoiced you will receive an email with tracking details attached.

What are your delivery time frames?

All orders to be sent by Courier need to be placed before 4pm and all orders to be sent by truck need to be placed by 2.30pm in order to leave our building and catch the overnight service. Orders sent via Courier to a business address are prioritized before Residentials. Delivery times are approximate only. We do not accept any liability in respect of nonperformance of our Couriers obligations due to disruptions outside of their control.

What should I do if I need my order by a certain date?

If you have a specified delivery date for your order, please let us know so we can ensure this makes the overnight service. You also have the option to arrange your own freight if you prefer a particular carrier.

Who delivers my order? How are orders delivered?

New Zealand Couriers are our default service for smaller items under 1.8meters. Orders over 1.8meters in length or that exceed the weight limit are sent via Mainfreight. You also have the option to send via Courier Post, or a freight forward service of your choice. Our Courier collects our parcels throughout the day and they endeavor to have this delivered to a Non-Rural/Non-Residential business address before Mid-day the following day. Business addresses are prioritized for first thing the following morning and all residentials are the following day before 5.30pm. Rural deliveries can take anywhere between 2-5 working days. Larger items being sent via Mainfreight are collected from us later in the afternoon and can take anywhere between 2-6 working days.

Do Co-Mac ship internationally and what is the freight charge?

Yes, we can ship internationally. The price for freight is calculated by the weight, dimension and destination of your order. This is available on request.

Can I get different products within my order sent to a different address?

Yes you can, however there will be an extra Freight charge for items within an order being sent to different locations.

Why have I only received part of my order? Some products are missing from my order, where are the other products I ordered?

If there is a missing product from your order which we have short shipped, please contact us immediately so we can send the part out on our next courier run for you.

New Zealand Couriers have a weight restriction of 25kg, if the parcel exceeds the limit, we would need to split this into two separate parcels. If you have placed an order with several different components which range in size, we would need to pack these separately also. The courier may have delivered Part 1 of the order with Part 2 following later that day – if you think the courier has forgotten part of the parcel please contact us and we will lodge an urgent query with our local branch.

Pricing

Do I get a discount if I purchase in bulk? What is your discount procedure?

First Price Break – 15% discount on any one item, ordered at any one time amounting to more than $900 plus GST. Second Price Break – 20% discount on any one item, ordered at any one time amounting to more than $2500 plus GST, but is not available on all items. This discount is subject to assessment at the time of order. To Clarify the above, a product with $10.00 +GST may qualify for a discount on an order of 90 units and receive a 15% discount, and at 250 units, a 20% discount. To receive the discounts, a single order much reach the price break quantity, not a quantity order built up over a period. The discount is also based on each line item. E.g. 90 items @ $10.00+GST may qualify for the 15% discount but 1 different item on the same order would not receive the discount. This discount structure may not apply to all items in our catalogue and only applied if payment is made the 20thof the month following invoice date.

How can I identify a phishing email that is not sent from Co-Mac?

There are several things you can check, firstly check the email address this has come from, most organizations will have their own email domain and company account, ours would always end in @comac.co.nz. If the email is poorly written with unusual phrases and grammatical errors this could be an indication of a scam. If it looks as though there are suspicious attachments or links you would need to hover over these without clicking, if these are sending you to any other site unrelated to Co-Mac it would be a scam.
