Part A: Trading and warranty terms and conditions – retail customers

1. PRICING

All prices displayed are in Australian dollars (AUD) and are inclusive of 10% Australian Goods and Services Tax (GST). We try to ensure that the prices and specifications appearing on the website are current; however, if mistakes occur we reserve the right to correct them after verification: all information is subject to change without notice. In all cases, we will confirm your order and pricing before shipping.

2. LEAD TIME

Please check the “Lead Time” information appearing on the page of the items you have ordered. “Lead Time” indicates how long until we dispatch the items to you. We will not be liable for any claim arising from failure to deliver or for delay in delivery occasioned by unavailability of materials,  accidents, shipping delays, transport delays, or any cause or event beyond the reasonable control of the company.

3. ORDER CANCELLATIONS

All order cancellations must be advised in writing. Orders cannot be cancelled once shipping has commenced.

4. SHIPPING

Uplifting Solutions utilises a national network of freight carriers to deliver the goods: we ship all over Australia.

Prices are based on delivery to ground floor only. Delivery to multi-storey locations may incur additional cost. The placement of goods and full assembly of some products is not included, and is available upon request at additional cost.

We endeavour to dispatch the products you purchase as quickly as possible. However as we are dependent on suppliers, it may require more time on certain occasions. If a delay does occur, we will advise you by email or phone. We will not be liable for any loss or damage suffered by the customer arising from delay in delivering goods after the due quoted delivery date.

By default, the customer provides Uplifting Solutions with “Authority to Leave” the goods at the requested delivery address, if the customer is not present when the goods are delivered.

5. PAYMENT

On-line payment s by Visa, MasterCard, AMEX or PayPal are accepted. Our online payment system is highly secure as all transactions and your credit card details are encrypted. We also accept EFT (electronic fund transfer). Goods will not be dispatched until payments are cleared.

6. PRODUCT AVAILABILITY

We may occasionally be out of stock of the product you ordered. In this case, we will contact you without delay and discuss the options.

7. RETURNS
