We may withdraw or suspend from sale any Good displayed on the Website, either temporarily or permanently, at any time and without notice. BuyNatural will not be liable to you for any loss you or any third party suffer as a result of a withdrawal or suspension of sale of a particular Good.

17. Problems with your goods

If you have a problem with your goods, please contact us via the Help Centre. We will investigate your issues and advise you whether your product may be returned and, where required, provide you with instructions on how to return your goods.

For goods purchased from an independent Seller, you may contact the Seller directly through our Help Centre. We will otherwise assist you to contact the Seller if you contact us.

If your goods still have a valid manufacturer warranty, we recommend you first contact the manufacturer in relation to any fault or defect, however, you may still contact us.

You are responsible for the return of your goods unless it is unreasonable for you to do so (such as large or bulky items) and in such circumstances, we will arrange for them to be collected from you. Where we collect goods, you may still be required to assist us with the returns process (such as disassembling assembled items), and we will work with you to ensure this is as smooth and efficient as possible.

Once an item is returned we will either inspect your goods and investigate any claimed defect or in some cases, send the goods to third parties for assessment and/or repair. Where applicable we provide a remedy in relation to your goods.

If we do not believe a remedy is applicable upon inspecting your goods (for example, where we believe the goods have been misused, or there was a failure to use in accordance with manufacturer’s instructions, used it in an abnormal way or there has been a failure to take reasonable care), we will reject your claim and return your goods to you. You must cover the cost of return shipping in order to receive goods we have rejected on inspection, and we will provide you with instructions on how to make this payment.

Refunds will be issued using the payment method used for purchase. If you have an account with us, store credits will be issued to the account used to purchase the goods.

We aim to process refunds and replacements within 28 days of receipt by us of the original product, however, depending on your item and the number of returns in our system, this may take longer.

In the case of goods and/or services redeemable through a third-party provider, the refusal of a refund or Store Credit does not prevent you from seeking a refund directly from the provider.

18. Defective Goods

All goods sold on BuyNatural (whether by us or an independent Seller) come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law. You are entitled to a replacement for or refund for a major failure and compensation for any other reasonably foreseeable loss or damage. You are also entitled to have the goods repaired or replaced if the goods fail to be of acceptable quality and the failure does not amount to a major failure.

Any product warranty given by BuyNatural will apply in addition to other rights and remedies you may have under the Australian Consumer Law. Where applicable, you may make a claim in relation to goods that are faulty in accordance with our Returns & Replacements Policy. This warranty only applies where specifically advertised in the product’s listing.

Goods that you purchase from our site (including Seller goods) may contain warranty documents on or inside the packaging provided by the manufacturer of the product. Any such warranty documents are not given by BuyNatural, and rights you may have in relation to those warranties are separate to any warranty rights given to you by BuyNatural. Some warranty documents provided by manufacturers of imported goods may not apply in Australia. You should contact the manufacturer identified on the warranty document to determine whether or not the warranty applies to the goods in Australia and, if so, how you should go about making a claim under such a warranty.

19. Dispute Resolution – Seller goods

If you are unable to resolve a complaint or dispute with a Seller in relation to your goods, you may submit your complaint to our dispute resolution procedure.

We will investigate your dispute in line with our published dispute resolution procedures.
