Products
We have made every effort to describe as accurately as possible the features and specifications of our products however; you are encouraged to contact us using 1300 414 053 or by e-mailing contact@bioneer.com.au if you are unsure and require any further clarification regarding configuration, application or use.
Custom service products that are shipped directly from the production facility to the end-user include Oligonucleotides, siRNA, miRNA, S.pombe library, gene synthesis, sequencing etc. Inventory shipped from the Melbourne warehouse includes Amplification products, Enzymes, Protein synthesis and purification products etc.
Goods purchased from Bioneer Pacific may only be used for their intended purpose as outlined in the relevant package insert, instructions for use or as detailed on the website. Any alternative use is undertaken at the customer's own risk and Bioneer Pacific and its related companies shall not be liable for replacement of product or any consequential loss or damage.

Shipping & Delivery
Custom service products are shipped directly from the Bioneer production facility in Daejeon, South Korea to the customer/end user using either Fedex or DHL on Bioneer Pacific’s account.
Importation is made by way of Bioneer Pacific’s import permits (where applicable) and all freight and import related costs are paid directly by Bioneer Pacific. The customer /end-user should never be called upon to make payments related to importation unless specifically organised with Bioneer Pacific.
Time and preparation for Custom Services products may vary depending upon the complexity of the service requested. i.e. simple, tube Oligos without modification are generally synthesised within 24-hours of receipt of order and shipped to arrive at the customer site, typically within 4 days. More complex requests including Gene Synthesis may take typically between 1 and 2 weeks.
While Bioneer Pacific assumes responsibility for importation, delays due to flight scheduling, industrial disputes or import clearances etc are beyond the control of Bioneer Pacific. We do however undertake to be diligent in facilitating expedient resolution of any such delays.
Product (non-custom) that is generally held in inventory in Bioneer Pacific’s Melbourne warehouse and ordered prior to 12 noon on a normal working day is generally shipped overnight to customers using 3rd party freight companies such as StarTrack Express, Toll etc. or local courier companies in the case of local Melbourne deliveries. Orders received after 12-noon are shipped the following day or if received on a Friday are generally shipped the following Monday. Product not available ex-stock is ordered on the Bioneer production facility twice weekly and as such these products are generally supplied within 7-10 days.
Product is shipped according to the conditions as recommended and specified by the manufacturer. Please note that shipping and long-term storage requirements may differ in specification. As such, product may be shipped ‘ambient’ but labelled ‘store refrigerated’ or shipped on ice packs but labelled ‘store -20C’.

Packaging, Handling & Delivery Charges
Bioneer Pacific charges a standard Packaging, Handling & Delivery charge of $27.00 + GST for all routine orders.
In the case of Oligo orders in excess of $300 + GST this fee may be waived.
For orders of specialised product requiring import and domestic shipment on Dry Ice, a Dry Ice surcharge may apply. Dry Ice is considered a Hazardous Good by transport companies and significant surcharges generally apply.

Title to Goods
Title to goods transfers to the customer according to whether the goods are those generally held in inventory by Bioneer Pacific or whether the goods are produced using Custom Services i.e. Oligo Synthesis that are shipped directly from the production facility to the end-user.
In the case of Custom Services, title to the goods transfers to the customer immediately the service/production  commences and/or a credit card or proforma invoice is accepted.
For items held in inventory and shipped from Bioneer Pacific’s warehouse, title transfers to the customer immediately upon shipment from the warehouse.
In both instances described, where Bioneer Pacific arranges freight/transportation on behalf of the customer, it will indemnify the customer against any product spoilage or loss arising directly from the transportation arrangements made. This indemnity will cease when the product is accepted at the customer’s premises and the customer will notify Bioneer Pacific within 24 hours regarding any concern resulting from the transportation of the goods to its premises or delivery of incorrect product or product shortage.

Returns Policy
Product determined to be faulty or not meeting the product specification can only be returned using a valid Return Authorisation Number (RAN) issued by Bioneer Pacific.
