  1. Australian Consumer Law Rights

Under the Australian Consumer Law, you are entitled to a replacement or refund if a product has a major failure, and compensation for any other reasonably foreseeable loss or damage.

A product is considered to have a major failure if it:

  • Is unsafe
  • Is significantly different from its description
  • Is unfit for its normal purpose and cannot be easily fixed

These rights exist independently of this Policy.

  1. Faulty or Damaged Items

If you receive an item that is faulty, damaged, or incorrect, please contact us within 7 days of delivery with:

  • Your order number
  • A description of the issue
  • Clear photographic evidence

Once assessed, we will offer, at our discretion:

  • A replacement
  • A refund
  • A repair (where applicable)
  1. Returns Process

To request a return or refund, please contact us before sending any items back.

Returned items must:

  • Be unused and in original condition
  • Include original packaging (where reasonably possible)
  • Be securely packaged for return shipping

We reserve the right to refuse returns that do not meet these conditions.

  1. Return Shipping Costs
  • Return shipping costs are the responsibility of the customer unless the item is faulty or incorrect
  • We recommend using a tracked shipping service
  • We are not responsible for items lost in transit during return shipping
  1. Refunds

Approved refunds will be processed to the original payment method used at checkout.

Please allow:

  • 5–10 business days for the refund to be processed after approval
  • Additional time for your bank or payment provider to reflect the funds

Unless required by law, sale items are non-refundable.

This does not affect your rights under the Australian Consumer Law in the event of a faulty product.
