Once your order has been dispatched, you will receive a shipping confirmation with tracking information when available.

Please note that orders placed on weekends or public holidays may take an additional business day to process.

Delivery Times

Estimated delivery times may vary depending on your location and the product ordered.

• South Africa: Approximately 3–7 business days

• Remote areas: Delivery may take an additional 1–3 business days

• International orders: Delivery times vary depending on the destination and shipping service selected

Delivery estimates are provided as a guideline and are not guaranteed. Delays may occasionally occur due to courier services, weather, public holidays, customs, or circumstances outside our control.

Shipping Costs

Shipping charges are calculated at checkout based on your delivery address, order size, and available shipping options.

From time to time, The Buy Box may offer free shipping promotions or discounted shipping. Any applicable offer will be clearly displayed on our website or at checkout.

When tracking is available, you will receive your tracking details by email once your order has been dispatched.

Please allow up to 24–48 hours for tracking information to become active after your order has been shipped.

Incorrect or Incomplete Delivery Information

Please make sure your shipping address, contact number, and other delivery information are correct before completing your order.

The Buy Box cannot be held responsible for delays or additional delivery costs resulting from incorrect or incomplete information provided by the customer.
