Refund Policy & Terms of Service

Defects, Warranties and Returns, Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (CCA)

The Client must inspect all Goods on delivery (or the Services on completion) and must within seven (7) days of delivery notify the Seller in writing of any evident defect/damage in any workmanship and/or Goods, shortage in quantity, or failure to comply with the description or quote. The Client must notify any other alleged defect in the Goods/Services as soon as reasonably possible after any such defect becomes evident. Upon such notification the Client must allow the Seller to inspect the Goods or to review the Services provided. Where it is deemed that the Goods/Services are defective the Client shall give the Seller access to rectify the defective Goods/Services
within the seven (7) day period. Unless subject to the CCA, in the event that the Client engages a third party contractor to rectify the Goods/Services prior to notifying the Seller of the defects, the Client acknowledges and agrees that the Client shall be responsible for the payment of any associated charges.

12.2 Under applicable State, Territory and Commonwealth Law (including, without limitation the CCA), certain statutory implied guarantees and warranties (including, without limitation the statutory guarantees under the CCA) may be implied into these terms and conditions (Non-Excluded Guarantees).

12.3 The Seller acknowledges that nothing in these terms and conditions purports to modify or exclude the NonExcluded Guarantees.

12.4 Except as expressly set out in these terms and conditions or in respect of the Non-Excluded Guarantees, the
Seller makes no warranties or other representations under these terms and conditions including but not limited to
the quality or suitability of the Goods. The Seller’s liability in respect of these warranties is limited to the fullest
extent permitted by law.

12.5 If the Client is a consumer within the meaning of the CCA, the Seller’s liability is limited to the extent permitted by
section 64A of Schedule 2.

12.6 If the Seller is required to replace the Goods under this clause or the CCA, but is unable to do so, the Seller may
refund any money the Client has paid for the Goods.

12.7 If the Client is not a consumer within the meaning of the CCA, the Seller’s liability for any defect or damage in the
Goods is:

(a) limited to the value of any express warranty or warranty card provided to the Client by the Seller at the Seller’s
sole discretion;
(b) limited to any warranty to which the Seller is entitled, if the Seller did not manufacture the Goods;
(c) otherwise negated absolutely.

12.8 Subject to this clause 12, returns will only be accepted provided that:

(a) the Client has complied with the provisions of clause 12.1; and
(b) the Seller has agreed that the Goods are defective with evidence provided; and
(c) the Goods are returned within a reasonable time at the Client’s cost (if that cost is not significant); and
(d) the Goods are returned in as close a condition to that in which they were delivered as is possible.

12.9 Notwithstanding clauses 12.1 to 12.8 but subject to the CCA, the Seller shall not be liable for any defect or
damage which may be caused or partly caused by or arise as a result of:

(a) the Client failing to properly maintain or store any Goods;
(b) the Client using the Goods for any purpose other than that for which they were designed;
(c) the Client continuing the use of any Goods after any defect became apparent or should have become
apparent to a reasonably prudent operator or user;
(d) the workmanship is repaired, altered or overhauled without the Seller’s consent;
(e) the Client failing to follow any instructions or guidelines provided by the Seller;
(f) fair wear and tear, any accident, or act of God.

12.10 The Seller may in its absolute discretion accept non-defective Goods for return in which case the Seller may
require the Client to pay handling fees of up to fifteen percent (15%) of the value of the returned Goods plus any
freight costs.

12.11 Notwithstanding anything contained in this clause if the Seller is required by a law to accept a return then the
Seller will only accept a return on the conditions imposed by that law. 12.12 Subject to clause 12.1, customised, or non-stocklist items or Goods made or ordered to the Client’s specifications
are not acceptable for credit or return
