Faulty Item Returns

For returns of items that are faulty the following terms and conditions apply as per Australian Consumer Law;

We will assess the product and determine whether the fault is minor or major.

In cases where issues with products are minor we will discuss the issue with the relevant supplier before making a decision on whether to repair, replace or refund the value of the item; or

In cases we have deemed the fault as major then you can choose to refund or exchange the item. This may occur after we have discussed the item with the relevant supplier.
