Warranty Policy – Others
- Scope of this policy
In order to achieve warranty compliance according to industry standards throughout our operations, this policy outlines our commitment to accountability and assurance throughout management of operations.
This policy covers items that were working at the time of delivery but subsequently have become faulty.
If the item is faulty or incorrect at the time of delivery or you have changed your mind on receiving the items, then please refer to our Refund and Exchange Policy.
- Introduction
Australian Consumer Law states that “a product must be safe, durable, free from defects, fit for purpose, acceptable in appearance, match its description and match any sample or demonstration model” (www.consumerlaw.gov.au).
We are committed to the highest standards of conduct. To meet this commitment, we have issued this Warranty Policy to cover our operations and to more closely align our conduct with the industry standards.
- Warranty on our products
The manufacturer’s warranty is included with the product specifications for each product on our website.
All Products come standard with one-year manufacturers’ warranty unless otherwise stated.
The one-year warranty period commences on the date that the product is successfully delivered to your delivery address.
Please note that incompatibility is not a fault. We cannot ensure what you purchased is compatible with your existing goods.
Our goods come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law. You are entitled to a replacement or refund for a major failure. If the goods fail to be of acceptable quality, you are entitled to have the goods repaired or replaced.
You may be entitled to benefits under the terms of any additional manufacturer’s warranty in addition to the rights and remedies you may have under the Australian Consumer Law. The manufacturer’s warranty (if applicable to your product) does not in any way affect your rights under the Australian Consumer Law.
If you have a minor problem with a product, we may offer you assistance or give you a free repair instead of a replacement or refund. When you have a major problem with a product, we will provide you with the choice of a replacement or refund. We will always endeavour to liaise with you to provide the best possible solution according to your needs and be as flexible as possible in our approach.

- How to make a warranty claim
Please call us first before attempting to make a claim. It is essential you leave the product in-situ (in place) so we can talk through the problem. It enables us to:
- talk through any testing the customer can conduct;
- try to establish the extent of the problem and the root cause;
- allows us to eliminate other connected items such as cable, connectors etc.
We will try to establish how and why the product is faulty by asking questions and talking you through some simple testing, investigations, assessments, analyses that you could perform.
We may change this policy from time to time by updating this page. You should check this page regularly to ensure that you are up to date with changes.
