    2. We will arrange to collect the Goods from you at no charge.

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.
  4. Defective Goods
    1. For the purpose of this policy, 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;
    2. The following will NOT be regarded as defects and will not entitle you to a return under this section:
      1. faults resulting from normal wear and tear;
      2. damage arising from negligence, user abuse or incorrect usage of the Goods;
      3. damage arising from electrical surges or sea air corrosion;
      4. damage arising from a failure to adequately care for the Goods;
      5. damage arising from unauthorized alterations to the Goods;
      6. where the specifications of the Goods, although accurately described on the Website and generally fit for its intended purpose, do not suit you; and
      7. in relation to used Goods, signs of handling and/or repackaging.
    3. Should the Goods be defective or of poor quality, please notify us by logging a return as stipulated in clause 2 above 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 Goods (except in the case of an extended supplier warranty);
    4. Where you request a repair/replacement of second hand Goods and a repair is not possible, we will see if we have replacement second hand Goods in stock (which is the same product, of the same nature and type, as the one sold), but if we do not, we will credit/refund you. Goods in perfect condition are not the same as second hand Goods. Hence the discounted price of the second hand Goods;
    5. We will arrange to collect the Goods from you at no charge. Once we have inspected the Goods and validated your return, we will at your choice repair/replace the Goods as soon as possible (if such repair is possible/ we have the same Goods in stock to use as a replacement) or credit your account with the purchase price of the Goods. 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;
    6. Unless there is an extended supplier warranty, we can’t facilitate returns that fall outside of the 6 month period;
    7. An extended supplier warranty is subject to the terms and conditions that the supplier or manufacturer may impose. It is your responsibility to make yourself aware of any such terms and conditions. Second hand Goods do not have extended supplier warranties;
    8. The remedy that may be offered to you is at the supplier or manufacturer’s discretion. We are under no obligation to provide you with a credit, repair/replacement, as the remedy lies with the supplier or manufacturer. If the supplier or manufacturer has offered to repair/replace within the applicable extended supplier warranty and it takes longer than 30 days, we will get in touch with you to enquire whether you would rather receive a credit/refund directly from us.
