Placing an order for products

You may order Products by selecting and submitting your order through the Site in accordance with these terms and conditions. Any order placed through this Site for a Product is an offer by you to purchase the particular Product for the price notified (including the delivery and other charges and taxes) at the time you place the order.  We may ask you to provide additional details or require you to confirm your details to enable us to process any orders placed through the Site. You agree to provide us with current, complete and accurate details when asked to do so by the Site. 

Acceptance or rejection of an order

In certain circumstances, we may need to reject your order. This may happen where the requested Product is not available or if there is an error in the price or the product description posted on the Site. Each order placed for Products through the Site that we accept results in a separate binding agreement between you and us for the supply of those Products.

For each order accepted by us, we will:
  • supply the Products in that order to you in accordance with these terms and conditions; and
  • provide you with an email confirmation of that order.
If we reject an order placed through the Site, then we will endeavor to notify you of that rejection at the time you place the order or within a reasonable time after you submit your order. 

Back Orders

At Fat Shack Vintage we aim to only offer products for online sale where the products are readily available to ship. This means that it is either in stock at our Melbourne facility or there is a lead time to transfer the stock from one of our local Australian suppliers to our distribution facility in Melbourne for despatch to customers. If it is already known that an item is not readily available to ship and there is an extended lead time, we will provide lead time information on that items listing for you to view prior to placing your order. We request that you ensure you visit our website to view the item/s listing in question for further up to date lead time information should you require it. 

From time to time however, you may pay for an item or items that are unexpectedly not readily available for immediate shipping and there is an extended lead time. This is the nature of supply and demand of fast moving goods. If this happens, our Customer Service Team will notify you as soon as possible to let you know that the item/s are to be placed into our back order system.  We will also provide you with an estimated lead time to obtain more stock of the back ordered item/s.  All lead times are approximate.

If after receiving advice from our Customer Service Team you opt to wait until the back ordered item/s are available, we request that you ensure you visit our website to view the item/s listing in question for further up to date lead time information should you require it. 

Once all items in your order are available, we will ship your order in its entirety.

We also understand that you may not always wish to wait for an item/s where they are not readily available for shipment. If you wish to cancel such an order, you can do so while the order is still in our back order system by contacting us and we will refund the amount that you paid for the product.  Alternatively you may choose to split your order into separate shipments. If you wish to separate shipments then a further freight charge will apply. Please contact us for freight calculations. 

Delivery of Products

We will only deliver Products ordered through the Site to a location where we provide delivery services. All efforts are made to dispatch the order within 2-3 business working days from date of purchase. 

You may obtain further information on the Site about our delivery time frames and how we deliver certain Products. The Delivery Fee for your order depends on the type of Product you order (in particular, the size and weight of the Product).

If there is no one or no appropriate person at the Delivery Address to receive the order or, if you are required to be present at the time of delivery and you are not present at that time, then we will not deliver the Products you have ordered. In this instance, we will endeavour to contact you or you may contact us to arrange for delivery at a different time, and we may charge you an additional Delivery Fee for that replacement delivery.You acknowledge and agree that any person at the Delivery Address who receives the Products is authorised by you to receive your order.

If your order is not collected within the noted 2 week timeframe, an overdue collection storage fee of $10.00 per week will apply. Please note storage fees for overdue collections must be paid before goods can be released to you. Additionally, if no advice is received back from you regarding the collection of your order, we reserve the right to cancel and refund your order. In that instance the storage and restocking fees will be subtracted from the refund.

Damaged Products and Returns

Please check any product on receipt to determine if it is damaged. If a product is damaged on delivery, then you can refuse to take receipt of that product and notify our Customer Service department. If you notice damage to a Product after delivery or there is a problem with your order, you need to notify us in writing with all details of the damage/problem within 14 days of delivery. If you are reporting damage to an item/s you have already taken delivery of, you may be directed by our Customer Service department to take the item/s to an Australia Post Office to lodge an insured Item ‘Damage Claim’. In this circumstance any further activities cannot progress until we are provided with the Damaged Claim lodgement number. Failure to do as instructed will negate any claim on Fat Shack Vintage. In the case of damaged goods we will refund or replace the product at our discretion.

If you wish to return a Product that is not damaged and that was provided to you under these terms and conditions, then you may return it for a full refund less the cost of freight within 60 days unless the product listing specifically states that an item cannot be returned. In order to process your refund request, please contact us that we can know when to expect the products back.

You must provide us with the invoice we issued to you for your order to make a claim under this clause. If you fail to do so, then we may not provide you with a refund. We will not refund the Delivery Fee where the Products have been delivered to you. 

Once we have received a returned Product and a refund is due, we will process that refund back to the payment method used when placing the order. Refunds to credit cards can take up to 30 days to appear on your statement. No returns are permitted on customised, special order items or sale items.

Please note that once products are installed they cannot be returned for a change of mind refund or exchange, and any returns based on damage to the product must be brought to our attention within 14 days as outline above. Another point to note is that products may differ from the pictures displayed due to the the natural variations of colors and finishes.

For the avoidance of doubt, any light bulb delivered that arrives in tact and in working condition but blows thereafter through use, irrespective of length of use, is not deemed a damaged product and will not be replaced or refunded unless the item listing specifically states that the product is covered by a warranty. Light bulbs are deemed a consumable item and therefore all average lifetime hours provided are averages and by no means a guarantee of life span.
