Our Products

All products are subject to availability. We reserve the right to discontinue any product at any time without notice. Product images are for illustrative purposes only and may vary slightly from the actual product.

We take great care to ensure product descriptions and ingredients are accurate. However we recommend that customers with allergies or dietary requirements review all ingredient information carefully before purchasing. If you are unsure please contact us at hello@theteacollective.com.au before placing your order.

Pricing

All prices are displayed in Australian dollars (AUD) and include GST where applicable. We reserve the right to change prices at any time without notice. Prices at the time of your order confirmation are the prices that apply to your purchase.

By placing an order you are making an offer to purchase. We reserve the right to accept or decline any order at our discretion. Payment must be made in full at the time of purchase. We accept all major credit cards, PayPal, Shop Pay and other payment methods as displayed at checkout.

Order confirmation does not guarantee availability. In the unlikely event that a product becomes unavailable after your order is placed we will contact you promptly to arrange a refund or suitable alternative.
