Shipping & Returns
SHIPPING
All our orders are shipped from our Brisbane, Australia warehouse. We ship our swimsuits to Australia and New Zealand using Australia Post and worldwide, to more than 40 countries, using DHL Express.
We aim to process and send all orders within 1-2 business days from the time we receive your order (excluding holidays and weekends). Please take into account the time difference: if you order Friday in the United States, it will be Saturday here in Australia which means that your order will be dispatched on Monday.
Once a parcel leaves our warehouse, we are no longer liable for that parcel being lost or damaged in transit
If you have PayPal, we would recommend using the platform to make your purchase in the event that you may need to return your swimsuit for a refund or exchange - PayPal offers Refunded Returns which means that they will cover the cost of your return postage up to a certain amount. Note that this service is offered by PayPal and not by Longpiece and may not be available in your country. For more information, please visit: https://www.paypal.com/au/webapps/mpp/returns

You should receive your Longpiece between 3 to 7 business days from date of dispatch if you are located in a metropolitan area, deliveries to rural areas may take longer. DHL does not deliver to PO Boxes so you will need to provide us with a street address.

We are currently unable to ship to the United Kingdom at this time, we aim to add this destination over the next few months. We are a small business located all the way in Australia, which means high shipping costs for us - we are always striving to add more destinations which can take some time. If you want to get your hands on a Longpiece but we don't currently ship to your country, get in touch at hello@longpiece.com - we will try to find a solution.
* Note that international deliveries may take longer due to Covid-19 related delays, which is something that is out of our control.
CUSTOMS & DUTIES
** International orders may be subject to import taxes, customs duties, and fees. These will be charged once the parcel reaches its destination country and must be paid by the recipient/customer. We do not have any control over these charges and we will not, under any circumstances, be responsible for these costs. As such, you may wish to contact your local customs office for more information before placing an order or visit simpleduty.com/import-calculator. We do not have the ability to estimate taxes and delivery before delivery. **
If you refuse to pay these charges, choose to refuse delivery or if your parcel is returned to sender, we will not refund you the original shipping costs. In addition, we will deduct the costs of shipping the package back to us from your refund amount.
European Union Customers - Note that, as of July 1st 2021, the EU has removed the 22 Euro de minimis limit, which means that all orders sent from outside of the EU will be subject to VAT upon arrival.
CURRENCY
Note that, by default, all product prices and payments made on this website are in Australian Dollars and that your payment will be processed in Australian dollars. Customers also have the option to navigate the website and pay in USD - Shopify automatically converts our AUD prices to USD, we have no control over the exchange rate used.
SALE RETURNS
* END OF SEASON SALE - 50% OFF SITEWIDE *
ALL SALES ARE FINAL, NO RETURNS OR EXCHANGES.
We are trying to make room for new stock and thus cannot accept any returns or exchanges on sale products - which is why we're giving you such a generous discount on the original price. Please follow the size guide for the perfect fit and, in doubt, size up.
FULL PRICE PURCHASES
We want you to be completely happy with your Longpiece. If you are not, please read our returns policy and conditions carefully to ensure that you are eligible to return or exchange your purchase.
We accept returns if the products are returned in the original condition with tags and liners attached. Please note all return requests must be made within 14 days of tracked delivery date.
If you love your new Longpiece but simply need a bigger size we can organize an exchange (depending on availability). If that's the case please mention it when contacting us as we may be able to hold the item for exchange while we wait for your item to be returned.
Please be careful when trying on your Longpiece so that you do not damage or mark it in any way including make up, tan and perfume.
*We reserve the right to refuse a return or an exchange if the item does not meet any of the above conditions.
IMPORTANT: All shipping costs associated with the return or exchange of an order are to be paid by the customer. We suggest that you opt for a carrier that offers tracking as we are not responsible for lost or damaged packages. Original shipping and handling changes are non-refundable.
