Australian Consumer Law

Products supplied to eligible Australian consumers are subject to applicable Australian Consumer Law protections.

Consumer guarantees apply automatically where the law applies and cannot simply be removed by contractual wording or a store's voluntary return policy.

Where goods fail to satisfy applicable consumer guarantees, remedies can include repair, replacement, or refund depending on the circumstances and whether a failure is major or minor.

Nothing in this Legal Notice, the Terms of Service, or another richpplax.shop policy is intended to exclude a right or remedy that cannot lawfully be excluded.

Voluntary Policies and Statutory Rights

Our voluntary return policy may establish conditions for returns where a customer simply changes their mind.

Those voluntary conditions are separate from statutory rights concerning defective, unsafe, incorrectly described, or otherwise non-compliant goods.

The ACCC has taken action to highlight potentially misleading online retail terms including:

  • blanket “no refund” statements;
  • absolute exclusions for sale products;
  • strict return deadlines applied to faulty goods;
  • mandatory restocking fees for statutory claims; and
  • requirements that customers always pay return delivery costs for faulty goods.

Accordingly, our policies must be interpreted consistently with mandatory Australian Consumer Law.

Website Information

We make reasonable efforts to ensure website information is accurate.

Nevertheless, occasional errors may occur concerning:

  • product descriptions;
  • photographs;
  • measurements;
  • stock information;
  • product variations;
  • pricing;
  • promotional information; or
  • delivery information.

We may correct inaccuracies when identified.

If an error materially affects an existing transaction, we will address the matter in accordance with applicable law.

Product Appearance

Photographs are intended to provide a reasonable representation of products.

Actual appearance may vary slightly because of:

  • screen calibration;
  • device displays;
  • lighting;
  • photography;
  • production differences; and
  • manufacturing variations.

Nothing in this section limits a customer's rights where a product materially differs from its description.

Pricing

Prices displayed on richpplax.shop may be changed before a transaction is completed.

The price applicable to a completed transaction is generally the amount displayed at checkout when the customer confirms the purchase, subject to applicable law and correction of clear errors where legally permitted.

Product Availability

We do not guarantee that every displayed product will remain continuously available.

Inventory may change due to:

  • customer demand;
  • discontinuation;
  • supply availability;
  • product updates; or
  • inventory corrections.

If we cannot fulfil a paid order, we will provide an appropriate resolution in accordance with applicable law.

remain the property of their respective rights holders where applicable.

Privacy

Where laws of a particular Australian State or Territory apply to a transaction, those laws will apply as required.
