Where's my order?

Please use the links below to the sections for an answer. 

On the very rare occasion that something takes a little longer than expected, there may be many reasons; we fully understand your concerns and we will do everything possible to rectify the situation. 

Before you contact us, please log in to your account at 'My Orders' and view the current status of your order and follow up the tracking number on the carrier's help line first (see Order statuses explained).

1. ESSENTIALS:

Buying pool equipment online from a genuine pool shop does not come with a promise of express delivery. The carriers we use are nevertheless the best available in Thailand,   98% of orders are delivered without any significant delays or other problems.

All order preparation and delivery times are strictly estimates only. Just as with any online store it is impossible to make promises. Never plan installation or construction before your goods are on site and checked.

 "Business days": our business days for preparation,  shipping, and delivery are Monday to Friday. Orders are not processed on Saturdays, Sundays, holidays or religious observances.

✸ Our BUSINESS hours are 08:30 - 17:00 Mon - Fri. We do not ship on Sundays and holidays. 

Carriers in Thailand DO NOT ACCEPT special instructions for deliveries or requests for delivery at desired times or dates. 

Our warehouses are open to customers by appointment only and our offices are closed on Saturdays, Sundays, and all public/religious holidays.

✸ Shipping to islands always takes much longer and can incur heavy surcharges. You will be advised of surcharges before your order ships.

To track your order status login to your account  at  'My  orders' to view the order status. To  track  your shipment use the tracking  information that was sent to you by email. Not all carriers operate tracking systems.

KEX Service Points & KEX Delivery Partners are typically owned by local business owners.  They do not all offer the same conditions or punctual service. Many drop-off partners insist on accurate address information.

Please ensure your details are correct 24 hours before orderingWe cannot change your delivery details for you, you must do this yourself.
