In addition errors and omissions including under-pricing. In the event that a Company product is mistakenly listed at an incorrect price, the Company reserves the right to refuse or cancel any orders placed for product listed at the incorrect price, whether or not the order has been confirmed and your credit card charged. If your credit card has already been charged for the purchase and your order is cancelled, the Company shall issue a credit to your credit card account in the amount of the incorrect price. In such an event, we will not send your order until you have confirmed that you wish to order at the new Purchase Price.

(b) If the Equipment is defective it must be returned within 7 days of the date of the invoice.

(c) Where the Equipment consists of a number of items, the Company reserves the right to make partial delivery of the Equipment (and will invoice accordingly).

5. Returns and Refund Policy

Conditions when you do NOT have the right to return a product.

Under the Australian Consumer Law, you are not entitled to return a product if there is no breach of a consumer guarantee – for example, if you:

Changed your mind
Ordered the wrong product
Found the product cheaper elsewhere
Were aware of the stock availability before and after buying the product
Requested a refund for purchase at a later date to facilitate cash flow management
Were aware of the relevant fault before buying the product – such as if the fault was written on the tag, or indicated in the photos or item description online
Damaged the product by misusing it – for example, you dropped your Item.
Used the product for a very long time and the problem is as a result of usual wear and tear

In some of these situations, we reserve the discretion to provide a remedy. Right of refusal for the return, cancellation or exchange of products is at the discretion of Videocraft Equipment Pty Ltd, except where the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 of Australia makes allowance. A restocking fee of up to 25% may apply to returned goods if they are returned in a resellable condition and only after inspection by Videocraft Equipment. Where a manufacturer offers a money back guarantee, this will normally involve you sending the product back directly to the manufacturer, who will process the refund themselves.

Change-of-mind Refunds:

Many businesses & Customers confuse change-of-mind refunds and refunds required by law. Change-of-mind refunds cover those situations where customers return goods because they do not fit, they have had a change of heart, or want to exchange a present they've received. Note that there is NO implied warranty of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose on any item sold by Videocraft Equipment Pty Ltd.

The law does not require a business to provide a refund in these circumstances. Since change-of-mind refunds are voluntary, Videocraft Equipment WILL NOT refund any Monies on Sales, laybys, or Deposits on Reserved or Pre-Ordered Stock after 7 days.

6. Obligations of the Customer

In all cases of hire of the Equipment and in the case of a sale of the Equipment where the Customer has not yet paid the Purchase Price in full, the Customer must:

(a) advise the Company of the situation of the Equipment at all times;

(b) not take the Equipment out of Australia, without the prior written consent of the Company;

(c) not use or allow the Equipment to be used on any abnormal or hazardous assignment, transport or aircraft (including helicopters and light aircraft) other than regular scheduled flights by a recognised commercial airline, unless the Company has given its prior written consent;

(d) take all reasonable precautions for the safety and security of the Equipment and not use the Equipment where it could be affected by salt, water or climatic or atmospheric conditions;

(e) comply with all relevant laws and regulations when using the Equipment;

(g) not attempt to adjust or repair or interfere with the Equipment except where it is necessary for its proper and normal use; and

(h) ensure the Equipment is used in a skilful and proper manner by persons with the necessary experience and familiarity with that type of equipment.

(i) title to the Equipment will only pass to the Customer upon payment in full of the Purchase Price and the Company has a lien on the Equipment until such time as all monies due under this agreement are paid in full; and

In the event the permission of any third party is required for access to repossess and remove the Equipment, the Customer shall obtain that permission at its own expense.

(iii) upon the repossession of the Equipment by the Company, the Company shall be entitled to re-sell the Equipment for the best price it can obtain in the short term. The Customer will have no claim against the Company for any damages or other monies whatsoever if the Company repossesses or attempts to repossess the Equipment.

(e) If an Insolvency Event occurs and Equipment which has not been paid for in part or in full is mixed with Equipment that has been paid for, then the Customer bears the onus of proving that the Equipment in its possession (whether mixed with other goods or not) has been paid in full by the Customer. If the Customer is unable to prove, to the satisfaction of the Company, that the Equipment has been paid for in full, then those goods shall be deemed to relate to unpaid invoices outstanding from time to time and are deemed to be the property of the Company. The Company reserves the right to repossess those goods without having to prove that the goods relate to specific unpaid invoices outstanding at the time of repossession.
