Collection: Pre-order

Order Ahead, Pay Less

Pre-order is how you secure pieces on their way in, usually at a lower price than they'll carry once they land. If you're planning ahead rather than buying for today, reserving now locks in your size and finish and saves you against the regular price. Many incoming pieces show up in the new arrivals first, so it's a good place to look alongside this one.

How Pre-Order Works

A pre-order reserves a piece that's incoming or being restocked. You order now at the pre-order price, and the item is dispatched once it reaches the warehouse. Because you're committing ahead of arrival, that price sits below the standard retail price for the same piece. The trade-off is timing: pre-order items take longer to arrive than pieces already in stock.

Why Pre-Order

Two reasons people pre-order. First, price: securing a piece in advance costs less than buying it once it's landed and selling at full price. Second, certainty: popular sizes and finishes can sell out fast when they arrive, and a pre-order guarantees yours is set aside. If you've found the exact piece you want and you're not in a rush, pre-ordering is usually the better value.

What to Expect on Timing

Pre-order delivery takes longer than in-stock delivery, because the piece has to arrive before it can be dispatched. The expected timing is shown on the product page and at checkout, so you'll know roughly when to plan for it before you commit. Once the stock lands, your order is dispatched in the usual way.

Delivery and Assembly

Pre-order pieces carry the same terms as the rest of the range once they ship: free delivery to Sydney and Melbourne metro areas, flat-packed for home assembly, with hardware and instructions included. Larger pieces are best assembled by two people.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is pre-order cheaper than buying in stock?

Pre-order pricing is set below the standard retail price as the benefit of committing before the piece arrives. You reserve your size and finish early and pay less, in exchange for a longer wait while the stock lands.

How long does a pre-order take to arrive?

Longer than an in-stock order, because the piece has to reach the warehouse before it can be dispatched. The expected timing is shown on the product page and at checkout, so you can plan before you order.

What happens after I place a pre-order?

Your piece is reserved at the pre-order price and held for you. Once the stock arrives, the order is dispatched under the usual delivery terms, including free delivery to Sydney and Melbourne metro areas.
