Q4. Can I buy decoction bags on Beijing Tong Ren Tang Australia’s website? Can I add them to my order of Chinese herbs?
A: Due to current shortage and instability of non-woven decoction bags, we have no decoction bags for sale on our website at this moment. However, after ensuring the supply of goods, we will provide non-woven decoction bags on the website for customers in need to purchase. In the meantime, you are welcome to call our Sydney store 02 9304 0052 for timely relevant product information.
Q5. After successfully placing an order online, how long will it take to receive the goods? Which courier company do you use for delivery?
A: We use Australia Post Express for mailing. Under normal circumstances, it usually arrives within 2-3 working days. However, during the Covid, Australia Post also admitted that there would be a delay and could not give an exact delivery date. If you cannot receive the goods within the normal delivery time, you are welcome to call the Sydney store on 02 9304 0052 to find out the relevant mailing information (due to the limitation of the web design at the moment, we cannot automatically provide the delivery tracking code to notify our customer after delivery).
Q6. I want to purchase Chinese herbs and Chinese herbal medicine products at the same time on your website. Can I place an order together? How to do it?
A: Sorry, due to technical limitations of website design, Chinese herbs and Chinese herbal medicine products cannot be ordered together. This means that Chinese herbal medicines and other products need to be purchased separately for the time being. If you must combine them together (such as saving mailing fees), you can send the details of the Chinese herbs and Chinese herbal medicine products you need to buy to syd@tongrentang.com.au and leave your contact information. The staff of the Sydney store will call you and handle the order for you, such as mailing you all products together.
Q7. I found that there are a lot of products in your store that are not all listed online. How can I place an order for them?
A: In view of the liquidity and availability of certain commodities, we may not update them online in time. It is recommended to send an email to syd@tongrentang.com.au to propose the goods you want to purchase and provide your contact information or communicate with our Sydney branch through their WeChat group (ID: BTRT_SYD).
Q8: I have a Chinese herbal prescription. I don’t want to make them as herbal decoctions due to the traveling reasons. Can you make them as "free-decocted Chinese medicine granules"?
A: Yes. However, the prescription needs to be sent to our subsidiary, The Herb Booth, which has an independent third-party GMP dispensing license in Australia. The Herb Booth provides high-quality concentrated scientific Chinese medicine granular powder which is ready to drink and easy to carry. Email: info@theherbbooth.com.au; Tel: 1300 650 402
