I LIVE IN THE USA OR CANADA, CAN I ORDER MINKPINK?
We are unable to ship MINKPINK products to the USA or Canada, however, all other items are available to purchase.
I want A PRODUCT BUT IT NO LONGER SEEMS TO BE available...
We know how frustrating it can be when you have your heart set on an item and you go to buy it but it’s out of stock.
However, some of our most popular products will run out very quickly so you do need to be quick and get it before someone else does. As we try to keep our products fresh, we usually add dozens of new items every week so you might just find something similar to the one you were looking for.
Try browsing through our departments at the top of the web-page and then refine the type of item you are looking for by clicking on each of the sub-sections (e.g. Dresses, Tops, etc...)
Alternatively, you can type in the product or brand into our search facility [right side of the menu bar] and it will find you everything related to your specific search.

Our Internet merchant facility communicates with your credit card issuer, confirming the validity of the credit card used and availability of sufficient funds. Once payments are successfully processed they are held in our Internet merchant facility ready for overnight settlement.
4. eWAY Reports
The result of the transaction is sent from the banking network to eWAY where the outcome is recorded within our transaction history. An e-mail receipt is automatically sent to you with the payment result.

WHAT IS SSL?
The SSL (and TLS) protocol is the Web standard for encrypting communications between users and SSL (secure sockets layer) e-commerce sites. Data sent via an SSL connection is protected by encryption, a mechanism that prevents eavesdropping and tampering with any transmitted data. SSL provides businesses and consumers with the confidence that private data sent to a Web site, such as credit card numbers, are kept confidential. Web server certificates (also known as secure server certificates or SSL certificates) are required to initialize an SSL session.
Customers know when they have an SSL session with a website when their browser displays the little gold padlock and the address bar begins with a https rather than http. SSL certificates can be used on webservers for Internet security and mailservers such as imap, pop3 and smtp for mail collection / sending security.
WHAT ARE SSL CERTIFICATES?
Securing our website with a recognised SSL Certificate protects our customers’ information and increases consumer confidence and trust. EWAY's Platinum Partnership with VeriSign, Thawte and GeoTrust; the world’s leading SSL providers, allows us to offer the highest standards of SSL security for all orders on aboutagirl.com.
IS MY INFORMATION SECURE?
Credit card data stored by eWAY is encrypted using Ingrian devices to provide the highest level of protection available. Ingrian devices provide tamper-resistant protection of cryptographic keys to ensure encrypted data is kept private and secure.
