Consumer Guarantees Act
If you buy goods normally bought for personal, domestic, or household use, you may have certain rights under the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 (Consumer Guarantees Act) that cannot be excluded or limited. These terms do not limit or alter your rights under the Consumer Guarantees Act (other than in the circumstances permitted under that Act). You can find more information about your rights under the Consumer Guarantees Act at the Ministry of Business, Innovation & Employment’s website (www.consumerprotection.govt.nz/general-help/consumer-laws/consumer-guarantees-act) and the Commerce Commission’s website (comcom.govt.nz/consumers/your-rights-as-a-consumer).

Provided we meet our obligations under the Fair Trading Act 1986, we can revise our prices at any time before accepting your order.

Risk and ownership
Risk of any loss, damage, or deterioration of or to the goods passes to you on delivery, or if you state to leave goods at a certain location, at the time goods are placed there.

– the time that we notify you in writing that this authority is revoked.
We can enter the premises where the goods are stored and remove them without being responsible for any damage caused in doing so. We can resell any of the goods and apply the proceeds of sale in the reduction of the amounts you owe to us.
If you resell or use the goods before ownership of the goods has passed to you, the proceeds of such sale or use shall be received and held by you (in whatever form) in trust for both you and us. Our interest as beneficiary under that trust shall be that portion of the proceeds that does not exceed all amounts you owe us. You will be entitled to the balance of the proceeds.
We can bring an action for the price of the goods sold even where ownership of the goods may not have passed to you.
