Shipping & Delivery Policy
At Bargain City, we aim to make delivery simple, secure and convenient. This policy explains our available delivery options, order processing times and what you can expect after placing your order.
Delivery Options
PUDO Locker Delivery
We can ship your order to a PUDO locker for convenient collection.
When placing your order, customers can provide their preferred PUDO locker location. Where possible, we will use the PUDO locker that is most convenient and reasonably close to the customer's location.
Once your parcel has arrived, you will receive the relevant collection and tracking information.
Courier Guy Store Delivery
We can also send your order to The Courier Guy store closest to you for collection.
Bargain City will use the nearest suitable Courier Guy store based on the delivery location provided by the customer.
Customers will be notified once the parcel has arrived and is ready for collection.
Please note: We do not generally deliver directly to residential addresses. Orders are sent to a designated collection point, such as a PUDO locker or Courier Guy store.
PostNet-to-PostNet
Customers may also choose PostNet-to-PostNet delivery.
With this option, your order will be sent from our selected PostNet branch to a PostNet branch that is convenient for you.
Customers should provide their preferred PostNet branch when placing their order. Where necessary, Bargain City may contact the customer to confirm the most suitable branch.
Choosing Your Collection Point
When placing your order, please provide your preferred:
- PUDO locker;
- Courier Guy store; or
- PostNet branch.
Where a specific location is unavailable or unsuitable, Bargain City may contact you to arrange the nearest available collection point.
Our aim is to send your parcel to a collection location that is convenient and reasonably close to you.

Collection Point Deliveries
Please make sure that you select a collection point that you can conveniently access.
Depending on the collection provider, you may be required to provide identification, a collection code, tracking information or other information before the parcel can be released.
Bargain City is not responsible for parcels that are not collected within the collection provider's applicable holding period.
If a parcel is returned to us because it was not collected, additional delivery or return charges may apply before the parcel can be sent again.
Incorrect Collection Details
Customers are responsible for providing accurate information when selecting their collection point.
This includes:
- Correct customer name.
- Correct mobile number.
- Correct email address.
- Correct PUDO locker or collection point.
- Correct PostNet branch, where applicable.
Incorrect or incomplete information may result in delays or the parcel being sent to a different suitable collection point.
Damaged Parcels
If your parcel appears damaged when you collect it, please notify Bargain City as soon as possible.
Where possible, take clear photographs or video of:
- The outside of the parcel.
- Any visible damage to the packaging.
- The product and packaging after opening.
This information may assist us when investigating the matter with the courier or delivery provider.
Courier Delays
The stated delivery timeframe of 1–3 business days is an estimate and is not a guaranteed delivery period.
Once a parcel has been handed over to the courier or delivery provider, delivery is managed by that service provider.

These may include:
