Shipping Policy

1. Shipping Overview

Goldcoaststar provides a straightforward flat-rate shipping option designed to keep delivery costs simple and predictable. A shipping charge of $6.99 applies to eligible orders. The applicable shipping charge is displayed during checkout before you complete your purchase.

Once an order is successfully submitted, our fulfillment process begins. Orders are prepared during our standard handling period and then transferred to an available delivery carrier. The total delivery period consists of two separate stages: handling time and transit time. Understanding this distinction can help you estimate when your package should arrive.

Handling time refers to the time required to review the order, confirm the purchase, prepare the merchandise, package the items, and arrange carrier pickup. Transit time begins after the package has been handed to the carrier and is moving through its delivery network.

2. Shipping Rates & Delivery Timeline

Goldcoaststar uses a flat-rate shipping structure. The following table summarizes the standard shipping service and estimated timeline for eligible orders.

The estimated total delivery period combines the one-business-day handling period with the two-to-six-business-day carrier transit period. These are estimates rather than guaranteed delivery dates because carrier transportation can be affected by circumstances outside Goldcoaststar's direct control.

3. Order Processing & Handling Time

Our standard handling time is 1 business day. During this period, we process your order, verify the order information, prepare the purchased items, complete packaging, and arrange shipment with the appropriate carrier.

Orders placed before the daily cut-off time of 5:00 PM EST, Monday through Friday are handled according to the next available business-day processing schedule. Orders submitted after 5:00 PM EST, or orders placed on weekends or applicable non-business days, may begin processing on the following business day.

Certain operational circumstances may require additional processing time. Examples can include unusually high order volumes, inventory verification, address clarification, or circumstances affecting fulfillment operations. If additional information is needed to process your order, our support team may contact you using the information provided at checkout.

4. Order Cut-Off Time

Goldcoaststar uses a daily order cut-off time of 5:00 PM Eastern Standard Time (EST) from Monday through Friday. The cut-off time helps establish when an order enters the standard processing schedule.

The cut-off time applies to order processing and does not represent a guaranteed delivery deadline. Delivery timing depends on both the completion of handling and the carrier's transportation schedule.

5. Delivery Services & Shipping Carriers

Goldcoaststar works with established delivery carriers to transport orders after they have been processed and prepared for shipment. Depending on the destination, package requirements, service availability, and fulfillment considerations, your order may be delivered through USPS, UPS, or FedEx.

The carrier used for an individual order may vary. Goldcoaststar determines the appropriate delivery service based on operational and destination requirements. Customers do not need to select a specific carrier unless a particular shipping option is expressly offered at checkout.

6. Tracking Your Order

Once your order has been processed and handed over to the shipping carrier, tracking information may become available. When tracking information is provided, it can be used to monitor shipment progress and view carrier updates.

Please note that tracking information may not appear immediately after a tracking number is created. A carrier may require time to scan and register the package within its tracking system. Initial tracking activity can therefore take some time to become visible.

• Order processing is completed before the shipment is transferred to the carrier.
• Tracking information is provided when available for the shipment.
• Carrier tracking updates may appear progressively after the first package scan.
• Delivery status information is controlled by the applicable carrier after dispatch.
• Customers should use the tracking information to monitor estimated delivery progress.

If your tracking information has not changed for a reasonable period or appears inconsistent with the expected delivery progress, please contact our support team so we can help review the available shipment information.

7. Estimated Delivery Time

Standard transit time is estimated at 2–6 business days after the handling period has been completed. When combined with the standard one-business-day handling period, the estimated overall delivery period is approximately 3–7 business days.

Delivery estimates are calculated in business days. Weekends and certain holidays may not count as transit or processing days depending on the operating schedule of the fulfillment facility or delivery carrier.

8. Shipping Address Accuracy

Customers are responsible for providing a complete and accurate shipping address during checkout. Before submitting your order, please carefully review your street address, apartment or unit number, city, state, ZIP code, and other applicable delivery information.

An incorrect, incomplete, or outdated address may cause delivery delays, unsuccessful delivery, address correction, return-to-sender situations, or additional carrier handling. Goldcoaststar cannot guarantee successful delivery when an incorrect address has been entered by the customer.

If you notice an address error shortly after placing your order, contact our support team as soon as possible. Because orders may enter processing quickly, we cannot guarantee that an address change will be possible after fulfillment has started or the package has been handed to a carrier.

9. Delivery Delays

Goldcoaststar works to maintain the estimated delivery timelines described in this policy, but carrier delivery schedules can occasionally be affected by circumstances beyond our control.

Potential causes of delivery delays may include severe weather, transportation interruptions, carrier network congestion, peak seasonal demand, public holidays, incorrect address information, operational disruptions, or other unforeseen events.

A carrier delay does not automatically indicate that a package has been lost. Customers should first review the latest tracking information for the most current shipment status. If tracking indicates an issue requiring assistance, contact Goldcoaststar support and provide your order details so we can review the situation.

10. Lost, Missing, or Damaged Packages

If a package is marked as delivered but cannot be located, customers should first check the delivery area around the shipping address, mailbox, front entrance, parcel area, and other locations where the carrier may have left the package. It may also be useful to check with household members, building management, or nearby recipients who may have accepted the package.

If the package remains missing, contact Goldcoaststar support with your order number and tracking information. We will review the available shipment details and provide assistance based on the information available from the applicable carrier.

If an order arrives with visible shipping damage, customers should document the condition of the package and merchandise as soon as reasonably possible. Photographs and relevant order information may help our support team evaluate the situation and determine the appropriate next steps.

11. Packages Returned to Sender

A shipment may be returned to the sender when the carrier is unable to complete delivery. Possible reasons can include an incomplete address, incorrect address, unsuccessful delivery attempts, refusal of delivery, or other carrier-related circumstances.

If a package is returned to Goldcoaststar, please contact our support team. We will review the order and available carrier information before determining the appropriate resolution. Additional shipping arrangements may be required when a new shipment is requested because of customer-provided address errors or other circumstances outside the original fulfillment process.

12. Product-Specific Shipping Considerations

Goldcoaststar offers Bags, Shoes, and Socks. These products may vary in size, packaging requirements, weight, and shape. We package merchandise appropriately for shipment to help protect the products during transportation.

Bags

Bags are packaged with consideration for their structure and material. Packaging may vary according to the individual design, size, and construction of the item.

Shoes

Shoes are prepared for shipment using suitable packaging to help maintain their condition during transportation. Product packaging may vary depending on the specific style and size purchased.

Socks

Socks are packaged securely to maintain cleanliness and protect the merchandise while in transit. Multiple items may be packaged together when included within the same order.

13. Multiple-Item Orders

When an order contains multiple products, Goldcoaststar will generally prepare the items for shipment according to the availability and fulfillment requirements of the order. Depending on operational circumstances, items from the same order may be shipped together or may be processed separately.

If an order is divided into multiple shipments, customers may receive separate tracking information when available. Delivery timing can vary between packages even when they were purchased within the same transaction.

14. Business Days & Holidays

Shipping timelines stated in this policy are calculated using business days. Business-day processing primarily follows the Monday through Friday schedule for order handling. Saturday and Sunday orders may enter processing on the following business day.

Carrier schedules may also differ during recognized holidays or periods of unusually high shipment volume. These circumstances may affect transit times and the timing of carrier scans. Customers should rely on the tracking information provided for the most current shipment status.

15. Customer Responsibilities

A smooth delivery experience depends on accurate information and timely communication. Customers are encouraged to:

• Provide a complete and accurate shipping address at checkout.
• Review order information carefully before submitting the purchase.
• Monitor tracking information after the shipment has been dispatched.
• Respond promptly if Goldcoaststar contacts you regarding an order issue.
• Contact support when a shipment appears delayed, missing, or incorrectly delivered.
• Inspect delivered merchandise promptly and retain relevant packaging when reporting shipping damage.

16. Changes to Shipping Information After Ordering

If you need to change shipping information after placing an order, contact Goldcoaststar support as soon as possible. We will make reasonable efforts to assist while the order remains within the processing stage.

Once an order has been packed or transferred to USPS, UPS, or FedEx, changes to the shipping address may no longer be possible through Goldcoaststar. In such cases, the customer may need to work directly with the applicable carrier using the available tracking information.
