Delivery, Shipping and Warranty Policy

When you order items online at DealSeeker you are confirming you agree to our Delivery, Shipping and Warranty Policy.

Delivery and Shipping Policy

DealSeeker shall determine the manner of shipping our items to you. Where possible, we ship items with our couriers and give our couriers full permission to leave all parcels at residential addresses in preference to this parcel returning to the courier’s depot. The parcel will only be given permission to be left at a safe place at a residence and will not be left in any place that the courier deems unsafe to theft. If a customer does not prefer to have an authority to leave, the customer must advise DealSeeker before ordering and may incur a re-delivery fee.

We are unable to guarantee a delivery on any specific dates or times as this is not something our delivery partners would be able to guarantee either.

Refunds and Returns Policy

Your Rights under Australian Consumer Law

If an item you buy fails to work or do what you asked for, you have the right to ask for a repair, replacement or refund under the Australian Consumer Law. The remedy you're entitled to will depend on whether the issue is major or minor. 

Where refunds will not be available

As we offer an online service, it is the customer's responsibility to ensure they check the item description and size carefully before ordering.

Unless stated in this Refunds and Returns Policy, return of item and/or refund due to change of mind is not allowed.

 

Costs of return postage

You are entitled to return an item if you believe that there is a problem. You are generally responsible for returning the item if it can be posted or easily returned. You are entitled to recover reasonable postage or transportation costs from us if the item is confirmed to have a problem, so keep your receipts.

When items are too large, too heavy or too difficult to remove, we will pay for reasonable shipping costs or collection within a reasonable time of being notified of the problem.

You do not have to return items in the original packaging in order to get a refund, however we ask that you do so if the original packaging is available, as this will aid the item reaching us safely.

For a refund, you will need to return the items by post or deliver. Please follow our Refunds and Returns Policy. This policy is aimed to prevent unnecessary costs to you. We recommend that you keep your original item packaging if possible. Should you need to return an item for repair under warranty and not have the original packaging, you will bear the responsibility for safely packaging your Item for transport and DealSeeker accepts no liability for any damage that may occur in transit.

We reserve the right to charge you for any postage costs incurred for returns should we find the item not have a problem or if you’ve changed your mind.

We will charge a re-stocking fee where items are returned due to change of mind or wrong address entered at checkout. 

Steps and Return Procedure

Please do not return the faulty item to us without contacting us first. For us to assist you, we require that prior to retuning goods to us you:

  • check the item or items for damages or faults;
  • record the damages or faults by picture or videos; and
  • email the picture or videos to us along with a detailed description.

To make a claim, you must provide us with a copy of your tax invoice or any kind of proof showing that you purchased the item from us. You need to also describe the problem precisely and provide evidence to support your claim, and state whether you are requesting a replacement, repair, refund or credit. This will enable us to review your claim. If you do not follow this procedure additional charges, such as postage and handling, may apply.

Once assessed and approved by our DealSeeker team, you will be contacted to proceed with the return, refund or replacement process.

A refund or replacement will not be provided if items are being misused, mishandled or mistakenly installed. Customers are responsible for following the instructions and advice given by the manufacturers.

Timeframes and method for refunds

All refunds will be made via the original payment mechanism and to the account who made the original payment.

Refunds generally take to 5-7 working days to process, and will notify you once the refund has been processed. However, please allow an additional 5 working days on top for your financial institution to process it.
