Terms and Conditions
Our products
We endeavour to ensure that all the products on our web site are accurately described, and we rely on information provided to us by our suppliers. Unfortunately, on some occasions it is possible that our web site will contain errors and we reserve the right to correct any errors or inaccuracies at any time, including after you have placed an order. In some cases the products we offer for sale are hand-made or made from natural or organic materials, and there may be small variations between the product image(s) and the product you receive. This will always be stated on the individual product listing. We endeavour to ensure that all colours are displayed accurately, but you should be aware that colours may appear slightly differently on different displays and screens.
To the extent permitted by applicable law, we do not warrant that the product descriptions, colours, information or other content available or offered on our web site are accurate, complete, reliable, current or error-free, nor do we make any warranty about the standard or quality of any of the products offered via our web site.
On rare occasions our suppliers find themselves unable to deliver products to us, or the products delivered are not of sufficient quality or workmanship. We reserve the right to withdraw any products from our web site at any time and/or remove or edit any materials or content on our web site. Whilst we will make our best efforts to process all orders, there may be exceptional circumstances which mean that we may need to refuse to process an order after we have sent you an order confirmation, which we reserve the right to do at any time, at our sole discretion. We will not be liable to you or any other third party by reason of our withdrawing any product from our web site, whether it has been sold or not, removing or editing any materials or contents on our web site or for refusing to process or accept an order after we have sent you the order confirmation.
Your order
After you have placed your order and we have processed your payment we will provide you with an order confirmation by email. This email does not guarantee that the product(s) you have ordered isare available. It represents confirmation that we have received your order. Your order represents an offer to purchase, which we accept when we dispatch your product(s) and send you an email confirming that your product(s) hashave been dispatched. Once this email has been sent and the goods have been handed over to the designated carrier, the contract between you and us is completed. The sale contract is therefore concluded in New South Wales, Australia.
If delivery of an order will result in unacceptably high freight charges to Salt & Wood, we reserve the right to contact you to request further shipping fees or to cancel an order prior to dispatch. If we cancel your order in these circumstances we will issue a full refund to you.
In the unlikely event that a product is unavailable, we reserve the right to cancel your order prior to dispatch. We will contact you by email as soon as possible to let you know. You may choose to have a credit to your account or a refund to the value of the unavailable product. We reserve the right not to accept your order in the event that we are unable to obtain authorisation for payment, where we suspect fraudulent activity, or where you do not meet the eligibility criteria set out, or otherwise contemplated, within these Terms and Conditions or our web site. We reserve the right to refuse to process or refuse service to anyone at any time at our sole discretion.
Prices, payment and GST
All prices displayed on our web site are in Australian dollars and include GST. All payments are processed in Australian dollars. We accept payment by Visa, MasterCard, and PayPal.
The retail price for each product is provided to us by our supplier and is shown alongside the sale price for your reference. Prices are subject to change effective immediately upon posting to our web site or other form of notification.
In some cases our products may be sourced from international markets and may not be available for sale elsewhere in Australia. In that case our supplier provides us with a retail price in Australian dollars based upon a conversion of the price in the market from which the products were sourced. In cases where our products have not previously been sold in any retail market, we work with our supplier to set a retail price based upon the price of products we deem to be competitive products in the Australian retail market.
Payment security
We use industry standard encryption to keep your personal information secure throughout the payment process. We do not store your credit card or bank information. We will not be liable for any damages or losses (whether direct or indirect) caused if a member’s card is used fraudulently.
Delivery
Delivery Fees: Delivery fees and times vary for different products and are calculated based on the size and weight of your order and its destination. The delivery price for each order will be displayed during the checkout process, prior to payment and order confirmation and included in the total price of your order.
Delivery time: Each product listing includes the estimated delivery time frame for that product. Typically, delivery occurs within 5-7 days of us receiving your payment authorisation and cleared funds. In some cases the estimated delivery time frame will be longer, for example where items are made to order. From time to time the delivery of specific items will exceed our usual 5-7 days delivery window for reasons outside our control. We work hard to process all orders as quickly as possible and we will send you an email to let you know when your item has been dispatched by us.
Risk in the products passes to you on commencement of delivery. We do not accept liability for any loss, theft or damage to the products after delivery.
Delivery methods & locations: We work with a number of delivery partners including Australia Post and courier companies. Your order will be delivered to the delivery address provided by you. We cannot deliver to PO boxes. Our delivery partner may leave a card at the address and you will need to pick up the delivery from your nearest Post Office or contact the courier company to arrange for re-delivery.
We deliver most products Australia-wide. In some cases, we will only be able to deliver products in metropolitan areas. This information will be shown on the product listing. We are not able to accept orders for international delivery at this time.
Delivery failure: It is important that you verify your information is correct, especially your delivery address. If the address provided is incorrect and the package is returned, you may be billed for the additional shipping charges in order for your delivery to reach you. You agree to this by placing an order with us, we reserve the right to pass on applicable charges to you if you provide wrong address information. We also require a contact phone number, which may be used by the courier to arrange delivery. If we and our delivery partner have been unable to deliver your order due to your error or fault after 21 days or 3 attempts (whichever is sooner), we reserve the right to cancel your order. In these circumstances we will refund you the price of your order, less the delivery fees incurred by us.
Returns
QUOTED LEAD TIME Uniqwa Collections quote an approximate lead time for the receipt of your order, based on current manufacturing and shipping times at time of purchase. Circumstances may change beyond our control which may lead to a delay in your order being delivered on quoted ETA [estimated time of delivery]. Deliveries can be delayed due to changes in shipping schedules, carrier delays and raw material shortages. Delays do not constitute a breach of contract. Uniqwa Collections do not offer cancellations or refunds due to delays. Uniqwa Collections holds no liability for any delays resulting from circumstances beyond our reasonable control or for any losses incurred as a result of any delays or force majeure of the purchaser.
Home Wares & Fashion
Items returned must be in ‘as-new’ condition. This means you have not used, damaged, washed or laundered any of the items. Please return items secured in their original packaging if possible.
After we have received your item and confirmed it is in ‘as-new’ condition, we will issue you with a store credit or refund of the purchase price less the initial delivery fees. If you have purchased an item using a free shipping offer and returned it because you have changed your mind, we will deduct the actual shipping cost to us from your refund. If we cannot be satisfied that you purchased the product from us then we will not accept your product for return.
Your consumer rights: The goods you purchase come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law. If your product is faulty, broken or otherwise non-compliant with a consumer guarantee under the Australian Consumer Law please contact us as soon as possible with your name and order number and our customer care team will advise you on the next steps.
Damaged items: Unfortunately, and despite our best efforts, items are occasionally damaged in transit. If you notice that an item is damaged when it is delivered to you, please contact us within 2 days of delivery with clear digital photos showing the damage. Our customer care team will advise you on the next steps.
The type of remedy we offer will depend upon the circumstances. We may arrange to replace the product (subject to availability), provide you with a partial or full refund of the purchase amount or work with you to arrange repair of the item by a local tradesperson in your area. If we require you to return the product to us, we will pay the cost of the return.
Our rights: We reserve the right to refuse a refund in cases where we deem damage to a product to be due to fair wear and tear, misuse, failure to use in accordance with manufacturer’s instructions or failure to take reasonable care.
Exchange: As we do not hold stock, we are not able to offer exchanges.
Manufacturer warranties
In some cases products offered for sale on our website may be subject to a separate manufacturer’s warranty. This will be communicated on the relevant product page. In this case we request that you contact the manufacturer directly. If the manufacturer is unable to assist you or you are not happy with the resolution of your issue, please contact us for help. We will be happy to liaise with the manufacturer for you but our liability will be limited to the refund of your purchase price.
