About These Terms and Conditions

Please read the Ts and Cs carefully before placing any orders on our Site ("Order”).

We recommend that you keep a copy of the Ts and Cs for future reference. We may modify the Ts and Cs at any time by updating and posting them on this Site. By accessing or using this Site, or placing any Order through the Site, you agree to these Ts and Cs. If you do not agree to these Ts and Cs you may not use this site.

These Ts and Cs also apply to the sale of any of our Products via methods other than the Site, including sales by telephone, email or other means, unless otherwise specified in writing.

Eligibility to purchase

In order to make a purchase through the Site, you will be required to register and provide your personal details. In particular, you must provide your real name, phone number, email address and other requested information as indicated.

Furthermore, when ordering items, you will be required to provide payment details and guarantee that the payment details you provide at the time of ordering are both valid and correct and that you are the person referred to in the billing information provided.

We sell and ship Products only within Australia. We will not make deliveries outside of Australia or to parcel lockers within or outside of Australia.

Acceptance of Your Order

How You Place Orders.

We currently accept Visa, MasterCard, AMEX, PayPal and Afterpay as payment options for purchases.

You may place an Order by selecting Products from our site, proceeding through our checkout and payment process and clicking the “Process Payment" button. Once your Order has been placed, you will receive an email acknowledging the details of your Order. This email is NOT an acceptance of your Order, just a confirmation that we have received it.

Order Acceptance

By placing an Order, you make an offer to us to purchase the Products you have selected based on these Ts and Cs. Information contained on the Site constitutes an invitation to treat. No information on our Site constitutes or should be deemed as an offer by us to supply any Products; however, we will make every effort to supply the Products to you. We will notify you that your Order is being processed by sending you an Order Confirmation and invoice via email; however, we do not formally accept your offer until your Order has passed our internal validation procedures for verifying the bona fides of each Order placed and security checks, for the purpose of preventing credit card or payment fraud. To the extent permitted by law, we and our affiliates reserve the right to reject all or part of an Order, refuse service, terminate accounts, remove or edit content, refuse to process Orders, or cancel Orders that we have previously accepted in our sole discretion. We will confirm acceptance of your Order when we send you an email confirming shipment of the Products you have ordered. If we cannot process or accept your Order after payment is received we will contact you by email or telephone.

We reserve the right not to accept or reject your Order if:

We are unable to obtain authorisation for payment;
The Product ordered is out of stock;
The Product does not satisfy our quality control standards and is withdrawn;
You do not meet the eligibility criteria set out within the Ts and Cs;
The Product ordered is subject to an error on the Site, for example, in relation to a description, price or image; or
An event beyond our control, such as storm, flood, earthquake, terrorism, power failure, war, strike or failure of computer systems, pandemic or epidemic disease, act or intervention of a competent judicial or regulatory authority (such as a change in Covid-19 alert levels or Government public health orders), or any other event beyond our reasonable control that, including any act or omission of any third-party means that we are unable to supply the Product within a reasonable time.

Subject to applicable laws we will not be liable to you or any third-party by reason of our not accepting an Order, withdrawing any merchandise from the Site, removing or editing content on the Site; refusing to process a transaction; or suspending any transaction after processing has begun.

Disclaimers

Colours
We have made every effort to display as accurately as possible the colours of our Products that appear on our Site. However, as computer monitors vary, we cannot guarantee that your monitor's display of any colour will be completely accurate.
Pricing and Stock availability
We always seek to list Products with the most competitive prices. We are constantly revising our offerings of Products, and we may discontinue Products at any time without notice. All pricing for our Products is subject to change. We reserve the right to change prices for Products displayed on the Site at any time before you submit an Order. We otherwise reserve the right to make adjustments due to changing market conditions, currency fluctuations, product discontinuation, manufacturer price changes, errors in advertisements and other extenuating circumstances. The price of Products shown excludes shipping costs. The shipping cost is shown separately on the Product page but may be recalculated based on how many and what items you place in your shopping cart.

Unless otherwise stated, any accessories shown in any image of products are not included in the price.
Errors
Information contained throughout the Site and in our database is believed to be accurate and reliable at the time of publishing. The Site may contain errors, omissions, faults or inaccuracies and may not be complete and current. We reserve the right to make changes and corrections in prices, Products, and specifications without notice. If there is a pricing error on the Site will endeavour to correct as soon as possible. If we discover an error in the price of any Products which you have ordered we will inform you of this as soon as possible and give you the option of reconfirming your Order at the correct price or cancelling it. If we are unable to contact you, we will treat the Order as cancelled. If your Order is cancelled after you have paid for the Products as a result of any changes made to the price, Products or specifications, you will receive a full refund in the same tender as your original purchase. If you purchase a Product with a gift card or voucher, we will give you a store credit in the form of a gift card.

Coupons and Discounts

Any coupon codes, including free shipping or discount offers, are valid at the time of Order placement only and must be entered in correctly at the relevant point in the payment process for you to be eligible for the offer promoted by the coupon. Coupon offers will not be valid or honoured on Orders successfully placed if used incorrectly or inappropriately. We reserve the right to cancel any Order relating to a coupon code that we deem to have been used incorrectly or inappropriately.

Coupon codes must not be shared publicly. Sharing codes on a public forum is a breach of our Ts and Cs. It is your responsibility to read specific details about a coupon code, which may outline what it can or cannot be used for; for example, whether it requires a minimum spend or whether it applies to a specific range of Products or is available to a specific group of people only.

Promotional Sales

The promotions and sales prices that are offered on the Site are available online only. They may not correspond to those in-store. Our stores may operate other promotions and sales concurrently. Promotions are available for a limited time only, for as long as they are advertised on the Site. We reserve the right to extend or withdraw a promotional or sale offer at any time without notice. Promotion codes are not valid to be used in the same Order as other promotion codes. Promotion codes are not valid on gift cards or online gift vouchers. Certain online promotions and offers are subject to additional terms and conditions which will be specified with the offer on the Site (e.g., duration of the promotion or sale, method of calculation of savings etc.). Please read these additional terms and conditions carefully.

Next day dispatch cannot be guaranteed during promotional periods.

Your Data - Use and Protection

By placing your Order, you agree that we may store, process and use data collected from your Order Form for the purposes of processing and delivering your Order. If you so indicate on the appropriate section of your Order Form, by placing your Order you also agree that we may use such data, other than credit card details, in order to provide you with information from time to time on other Products that may be of interest to you. If you do not agree to our using such data in order to provide you with information on other Products, you should indicate your non-agreement on the appropriate section of your Order Form. You may obtain a copy of the data held by us concerning you on request in writing. We reserve the right to charge an administration fee for processing such request. If any data held by us concerning you is incorrect, we will correct it on your written request.

Please refer to our  Privacy Collection Notice and Privacy Policy for more information about how we collect and handle your data containing personal information.

Credit Card Fraud

While we employ Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology software for our transactions with our customers and take reasonable care to ensure that our Site is secure, we will not be responsible for any damages, consequential losses (whether direct or indirect) suffered by a customer whose credit card is fraudulently used or is used in an unauthorised manner.

We will take reasonable care to keep the details of your Order and payment secure, but we cannot be held liable for any loss you may suffer if a third-party procures unauthorised access to any data you provide when accessing or ordering from the Site unless that access was made possible by our negligence.

Fraud Protection or Prevention Procedures

To help ensure we remain a safe and secure place for customers to transact we may ask you to confirm your identity by confirming information that you’ve provided us is correct. Our process is to contact you either by phone or email with a request to confirm certain information. This may occur when you open your account or when you make an online purchase. In addition, from time to time we may need to ask you for some extra information so that we can adequately identify who you are. This information will only ever be collected for the purposes of confirming your identity. This process is entirely voluntary, however if you do choose not to confirm or provide the information we ask for then unfortunately we may not be able to continue to process your Order. If we need to confirm your identity, we’ll attempt to contact you soon after you have placed your Order. If we can’t confirm your identity within 7 days, we will cancel your Order and process a refund within 24 hours of our last attempt to contact you.

Click & Collect Orders

When you place a Click & Collect Order through the Site (“CC Order”), it does not mean that we will automatically accept your CC Order or that your CC Order will automatically be available for collection at your chosen store.

We will only consider a CC Order confirmed once we have sent you a CC Order confirmation via email. This will normally occur soon after you have placed your CC Order. Once you have received your CC Order confirmation you will need to wait until you are contacted directly by a representative from your nominated store to confirm that your CC Order is ready for collection.

You will have up to seven (7) days from the time you are contacted by the store to collect your CC Order. After this time, although your nominated store will make every effort to contact you, if you have not arranged an extension of time by contacting the store, then your CC Order may be cancelled. If we have to cancel your CC Order then we will refund the amount you paid back to you using the same payment method.

Although we will avoid doing so without good reason, we reserve the right in our absolute discretion to cancel or reject any CC Order. If we do need to cancel all or part of a CC Order, then we will try to provide you with reasonable notice of that cancellation. This will include either our Customer Service team or your nominated store contacting you directly to explain why we have had to cancel your CC Order.

Once you have received your CC Order confirmation by email, if you wish to cancel or amend your CC Order or part of your CC Order then you will need to make contact with your chosen store using the information found on the CC Order confirmation email. If you wish to cancel or amend your CC Order and you have not yet received your CC Order confirmation email then you can contact our Customer Service team directly.

The person named on the CC Order confirmation email should collect the CC Order. When you arrive at the store to collect your Products you will need to provide a printed or digital copy of the CC Order confirmation email. You will also be required to show a form of photo identification (such as a current driver’s licence, passport or proof of age card) that has the same name and address that is printed on the CC Order confirmation email. If for any reason, the person named on the CC Order confirmation email cannot collect the CC Order in person then the person collecting the CC Order on their behalf must still present a copy of the Order confirmation email and their own photo identification. The store will then need to contact the person named on the CC Order confirmation email to confirm the person attending the store is authorised to collect the CC Order on their behalf. The person collecting the Order will be required to produce their signature as evidence that they have collected the CC Order. We reserve the right in our absolute discretion to refuse collection of your CC Order where we cannot verify your identity or where the requirements set out above are not satisfied.

Once you have received the CC Order confirmation email, the return of any Products the subject of the CC Order will be in accordance with our Returns Policy available here.

CC Orders are not available for the purchase of Gift Cards, online exclusive products or certain promotional offers.

Making orders over the phone may require you to register an account with us and give us and/or send us information. We also reserve the right to require more information not limited to: an authorisation email and/or a digital recording of the transaction, your financial information and/or credit card information and/or any identification and/or proof that you are who you say you are, all at our discretion. By giving us your financial information for the purpose of placing an Order via phone, this shall be considered full authorisation to charge your card for the amount discussed.
