    11. If you make any payment for Products in the future, you will do so under the terms Posted on Our Website at that time.
    12. We do not sell Products in all countries. We may refuse to deliver a Product if you live in a country we do not serve.
    13. Products are currently limited for sale and use in Australia and New Zealand only. We do not support use outside these territories and use elsewhere may violate local regulatory requirements.
  4. The price and payment

    1. The prices payable for Products are clearly set out on Our Website.
    2. Unfortunately, we cannot guarantee that every Product advertised on Our Website is available. If at any time a Product becomes unavailable, we will immediately refund any money you have paid.
    3. The price charged for any Product may differ from one country to another. You may not be entitled to the lowest price unless you reside in the qualifying country.
    4. Prices are inclusive of any applicable Australian goods and services tax.
    5. All prices are stated in Australian Dollars (AUD). For international orders, your payment provider may apply currency conversion fees which are not under our control.
    6. Price of Software is included in the price of a Product.
    7. If, by mistake, we have under-priced a Product, we will not be liable to supply that Product to you at the stated price, provided that we notify you before we dispatch it to you.

    We take care to make Our Website safe for you to use.

    1. Card payments are not processed through pages controlled by us. We use one or more online payment service providers who will process your card or bank account details in a secure environment.
  6. Delivery

    1. Products are delivered within 45 days from the day you place an order to purchase a Product.
    2. Deliveries will be made by the carrier to the address stipulated in your order. You should normally ensure that someone is present to accept delivery, unless you have provided authority to leave without signature.
    3. If we are not able to deliver your Product within 45 days of the date of your order, we shall notify you by e-mail to arrange another date for delivery.
    4. We may deliver your Product in instalments if they are not all available at the same time for delivery.
    5. Products are sent at our risk until delivery is confirmed. Delivery is confirmed when:
      1. it is signed for by you or by any other person at the address you have given to us; or
      2. the carrier confirms the Product has been delivered to your nominated address pursuant to your authority to leave the Product without signature.

      Risk in the Product passes to you upon confirmation of delivery by either method.

    6. Unless you have authorised the carrier to leave Products without signature, all Products must be signed for on delivery by an adult aged 18 years or over. If signature is required and no one of that age is at the address when delivery is attempted, your purchase may be retained by the driver. Where signature is required, when your purchased Product arrives, it is important that you check immediately the condition and quantity. If the Product has been damaged in transit, you must refuse the delivery and contact us immediately so that we may dispatch a replacement quickly and minimise your inconvenience. If you have authorised delivery without signature, you accept that the Product will be left unattended and you will not have the opportunity to inspect the Product before risk passes to you. By authorising delivery without signature, you accept all risk of loss, damage, or theft occurring after the carrier confirms delivery, and we shall have no liability for any such loss, damage, or theft.
    7. Signing "Unchecked", "Not Checked" or similar is not acceptable.
    8. Products are sent by post. We will send you a message by email to tell you when we have dispatched your order.
    9. If we agree with you to deliver on a particular day or at a particular time, we will do our best to comply. But no time given is to be treated as contractual. So we are not liable to you for any expense or inconvenience you incur on account of delayed delivery or non-delivery.
    10. Time for delivery specified on the order, if any, is an estimate only. We cannot be responsible for any delay beyond our reasonable control.
  7. Liability for subsequent defects

      1. the defect appears and is reported to us within 12 months of purchase;

      3. you have returned the defective parts to us if we have so requested.
    2. If we agree that we are liable, we shall refund the cost of carriage and shall send out the replacement parts free of charge.

    8. If we agree that a Product is faulty, we will:
      1. refund the cost of return carriage;
      2. repair or replace the Product as we choose.
  9. Foreign taxes, duties and import restrictions

    1. When you buy a Product for delivery outside Australia, your purchase may be subject to import duties, taxes or restrictions. We have no knowledge of these and take no responsibility for them.
