Costs of Returns not covered by Warranty or Australian Consumer Law.

For returns to us of items which you have purchased incorrectly or changed your mind on may incur a fee.

In most cases, you will be responsible for the shipping costs both ways. This means the cost of getting the product you're returning back to us, and the cost of sending a replacement product to you if that is applicable.

You may also incur a restocking fee for items which are being returned to us in a non-resaleable condition. This includes items which;

• Have been opened and their packaging breached or damaged.
• Have been installed.
• Have been altered.
• Have been damaged. 

The restocking fee varies from product to product. For most products the restocking fee is 15% of the total price of the returned good(s). The restocking fee is 50% of the total price of the returned good(s) for products that have been altered or cut to fit a vehicle which has been incorrectly selected.

Please note that these costs are not applicable to products covered under manufacturer's warranties or Australian Consumer Law.

We will hold orders for up to 48 hours before we dispatch if we don't hear from the customer. If we do not receive a reply from the customer within 48 hours, we will presume that the customer has selected the correct products and dispatch them.

Shipping

The vast majority of our items are shipped from our warehouse in Newcastle, New South Wales, Australia.

We do offer a pickup option from our premises in Kotara, Newcastle, New South Wales, Australia by appointment only. 

We do not offer shipping to any countries other than Australia. 

Under normal conditions, delivery will take between 2 and 8 working days to arrive, depending on your location and the size of the products you've ordered. Remote areas often often require longer shipping times. We endeavour to give all customers a tracking number which you can use to monitor the progress of your shipment. 

In most cases we offer door-to-door shipping. We can ship to residential and business addresses. In some case, we may need to ship to a depot and have you collect from there but you will be notified of this well in advance of the products leaving us. 

We aim to dispatch all orders within 1 working day of your full payment. If you need to cancel your order after it has been dispatched, our standard Returns & Refund policy may apply.

We may dispatch some items from our supplier's warehouses in cases where the products are particularly bulky which we do not have in stock at the time of you placing your order. These warehouses are located in Perth, Brisbane and Sydney, Australia. 

We regret that our supplier's warehouses are not open to the public and we are therefore unable to offer a pickup option for products being dispatched from these locations.

We ship the vast majority of our products with Star Track Express but we reserve the right to use other carriers should the need arise due to your location, the size of the consignment or the cost of shipping.

Some items may be dispatched in more than one carton.
