Refundpolicy

All products purchased at www.theergocentre.com.au can be returned to The Ergo Centre providing they were purchased within Australia and they have clearly breached a consumer guarantee under the Australian Consumer Law (ACL). These apply to products that:

  • are faulty or are not of acceptable quality;
  • have been damaged during transit;
  • do not match the purpose described, or are not as described in the product description;
  • do not correspond with a sample provided; and/or
  • have been sent to you incorrectly (e.g. products which you did not order).

If our failure to comply with a consumer guarantee constitutes a 'major failure' under the ACL, we will refund the purchase price of the product or send you a replacement product (at your discretion), and compensate you for any other reasonably foreseeable loss or damage. If it does not constitute as a 'major failure', we will replace the product.

A failure to comply with a consumer guarantee is a 'major failure' if: (a) the product would not have been acquired by a reasonable consumer if they knew about the failure; (b) the product departs significantly from its description or a sample; (c) the product is substantially unfit for purpose and cannot be easily remedied; or (d) the product is not of acceptable quality because it is unsafe.

We will not refund a product if:

  • Too much time has passed. The right to a refund ends after a period of time has passed in which one would expect the problem to have become apparent; or
  • The product was damaged after being delivered to you.

We will not refund or replace a product if you have changed your mind about purchasing the product or made an incorrect choice.
