Defective products

Valuecity will always do our best to ensure that the products we deliver to you are of a high quality,

and in good working order and without defects.

What is a defect? A defect is a material imperfection in the manufacture of a product or any

characteristic of a product, which makes the product less acceptable than one would reasonably be

entitled to expect in the circumstances. Please refer to our FAQs for some examples.

The following will NOT be regarded as defects and will not entitle you to a return under this section 3:

* Faults resulting from normal wear and tear;

* Damage arising from negligence, user abuse or incorrect usage of the product;

* Damage arising from electrical surges or sea air corrosion;

* Damage arising from a failure to adequately care for the product;

* Damage arising from unauthorized alterations to the product;

* Where the specifications of a product, although accurately described on the Valuecity

website and generally fit for its intended purpose, do not suit you.

Standard Warranty

If you have received a product which turns out to be defective or otherwise of poor quality (save for

direct warranty products which are discussed below), please notify us as soon as reasonably possible

after you become aware of the defect or poor quality, but in any event within 6 months after delivery

/ collection of the product (except in the case of an extended supplier warranty, which is set out

below).

You can do so sending us an email or calling us, and we will arrange to collect the product from you

at no charge. Once we have inspected the product and validated your return, we will at your choice

repair / replace the product (if such repair is possible / we have the same product in stock to use as a

replacement) or credit your account with the purchase price of the product (or refund you if that is

your preference). If the repair / replacement takes longer than 21 days, we will get in touch with you to

see if you would rather receive a credit / refund.

Where there is no extended supplier warranty period, unfortunately we cannot facilitate

returns that fall outside of the 6 month period.

Extended Supplier Warranty (stipulated on product page)

A product may have a supplier warranty that extends beyond the 6 month Standard Warranty. If such

a product turns out to be defective more than 6 months after delivery / collection (save for direct

warranty products which are discussed below), please notify us as soon as reasonably possible after

you become aware of the defect, but in any event within the extended supplier warranty

period after delivery / collection of the product.

You can do so by sending us an email or calling us, and we will facilitate your return of the product to

the supplier at no charge. Unfortunately we cannot facilitate returns that fall outside of the extended

supplier warranty period.

Please note that any extended supplier warranty is subject to whatever terms and conditions the

supplier or manufacturer may impose. These are usually stated in a brochure or leaflet inside or on

the product packaging. It is your responsibility to make yourself aware of any such terms and

conditions.

It is also important to note that it will be in the supplier or manufacturer’s discretion what remedy it can

offer you .

Valuecity is under no obligation to provide you with a credit, repair / replacement, as your

remedy lies with the supplier or manufacturer. However, since we want your experience to be

as good as possible, if the supplier or manufacturer has offered you a repair / replacement

within the applicable extended supplier warranty and it takes longer than 21 days, we will get

in touch with you to see if you would rather receive a credit / refund directly from us.

Direct Warranty (stipulated on product page or manufacturer website)

A direct warranty product is a product for which the relevant manufacturer wishes to manage

defective returns itself, directly with the customer, and not through Valuecity.

If a direct warranty product turns out to be defective or otherwise of poor quality, please notify us and

we will provide you with the relevant manufacturer’s contact details. WE will also contact the supplier

on your behalf. Alternatively, you can notify the relevant manufacturer directly if you already have its

details. The relevant manufacturer will then assist you further, but if you have any difficulty, please let

us know and we will be happy to assist you where we can.

Damaged or defective Large Appliances items can be returned within 7 days in accordance with our

returns policy. After 7 days the supplier will come to you to inspect the product and assist you with a

possible repair, replacement or refund. In the event of a refund, it will be done by Valuecity. Our team

here at Valuecity will happily provide you with the supplier details when you as customer report the

problem.

Other than this, the same limits and general principles of the standard warranty and extended supplier

warranty apply to direct warranty products.

Charges and refunds

If you return a defective product to us, but you fail to return all of the accessories and

parts that were sold with that product, we are entitled to (subject to applicable law) to

refuse the return, only to replace the item that you did return, or to estimate the value of

the missing accessories and parts and only to credit or refund you in respect of the

returned item.

If you return a product that does not comply with this Policy, you may be liable to reimburse Valuecity

for the cost of collecting the product from you and the cost of having the product returned to you.

Under no circumstances will donations be refunded.

Please note that we only refund to the payment method that you originally used – i.e. payment

by credit card will be refunded to the same credit card, payment by EFT or COD (cash on delivery) will

be refunded to your nominated bank account, or credit card.
