Refund & Return Policy

We have been in business for over 20 years and we are committed to maintaining the exceptional relationship we have with our customers. We love what we do and we want you to love what we have to offer. We are reasonable people and we will always do our best and what is reasonable to help!

This policy applies only to products purchased and sold via our online ecommerce platform.

All refund rights under both State and Commonwealth law apply.

Our goods come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law. You are entitled to a replacement or refund for a major failure. You are also entitled to have the goods repaired or replaced if the goods fail to be of acceptable quality and failure does not amount to a major failure. If the failure is minor, we reserve our right to offer to repair only. We reserve the right to not offer a refund or an exchange coupon.

Return Exclusions
Special order products are not covered by our 30 day returns policy. Items which need to be backordered from a supplier can not be returned for change of mind. This does not affect a customer's right to return under consumer guarantees.

Damage goods in Transit
Please do not sign for (receive) a delivery of goods that are obviously damaged. If damage is only found upon unpacking then please contact Firewize as soon as possible. We will then arrange for the goods to be collected and a refund or replacement item sent to you.

Returns
Our return policy lasts 30 days from the date of your purchase. If 30 days have gone by since your purchase, unfortunately we can’t offer you a refund or exchange.

To be eligible for a return, your item must be unopened, unused and in the same condition that you received it in its original packaging. To complete your return, we require a receipt or proof of purchase. This should be easy to do given the you purchased from our ecommerce platform and a copy of the invoice will have been emailed to you.

Some of our products are shipped directly from the manufacturer, please do not send your purchase back to the manufacturer, rather send it to Firewize as set out in the “Shipping” section detailed below.

There are certain situations where only partial refunds are granted (if applicable);

  • Any item not in its original condition, is damaged or missing parts for reasons not due to our error
  • Any item that is returned more than 30 days after delivery

If the product you want to return is defective (we may ask for or a statement by you or photos as evidence) we will arrange for a courier to pick up the item at our expense. If the product isn’t faulty but you still want to return it you will be required to organise and pay to return the product to one of our facilities. Once we receive the product and assess it we can either arrange for the item to be replaced or issue you with a refund of the purchase price.

Refunds (if applicable)
Once your return is received and inspected, we will send you an email to notify you that we have received your returned item. We will also notify you of the approval or rejection of your refund.
If you are approved, then your refund will be processed, and a credit (typically within 14 days) will automatically be applied to your credit card or original method of payment.

Late or missing refunds (if applicable)
If you haven’t received a refund yet, first check your payment account again, then contact your credit card company, it may take some time before your refund is officially posted. Next contact your bank. There is often some processing time before a refund is posted. If you’ve done all of this and you still have not received your refund yet, please contact us at shop@firewize.com

Exchanges (if applicable)
We only replace items if they are defective or damaged. If you need to exchange it for the same item, send us an email at shop@firewize.com and return the item as set out in the “shipping” section below.
