Payment and Shipping

We offer a full, secure integration with PayPal for all orders placed on our website. PayPal uses buyer protection, giving you piece of mind for any orders placed with us! If you are not registered with PayPal, but would like to purchase one of our mineral specimens, the PayPal system allows you to register quickly and painlessly. There is also no need to transfer any funds or the like to your PayPal account; you can make a once off purchase through the PayPal system using your debit or credit card!

All our mineral specimens are shipped using DHL for the international parcels and PostNet for domestic shipments through our integrated shipping portal. Local shipments are charged at a "catch all" rate of ZAR 109 (Up to 2kg) across South Africa, orders over R1000 will recieve free shipping (Please note this excludes remote sites such as farms, mines and other outlying areas, for this we will do a postnet counter to counter to the nearest postnet at the additional rates)

For international shipments the system will quote you on checkout prior to payment. Please note that the final quoted price includes shipping on our payment portal!

Note we use DHL with the rates calculated on our system automatically. It pays to order in weights in excess of 1.5kg to secure a cheaper per specimen shipping rate. 

We usually ship next working day in South Africa, at which point you will recieve a tracking number that you can use on the respective couriers website to check the status of your parcel at any time. In addition, all of our shipments are insured to a default value of ZAR3000 - Additional insurance can be added to your parcel on request. 

Please refer to our terms & conditions as well as shipping and returns policies for any further information or feel free to contact us directly on info@capeminerals.co.za should you have any queries.

We look forward to hearing from you!
