Faulty good returns
In the unlikely event that a product you have purchased from Awesome GagdetsNZ Ltd becomes faulty, we are committed to meeting our obligations under the New Zealand Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 (CGA).

Consumer Guarantees Act 1993
The New Zealand Consumer Guarantees Act 1993, is legislation that outlines the guarantees and rights of both the seller and consumer for products and services sold.

Under the CGA, products sold by us must be safe, of acceptable quality, fit for the purpose they have been purchased for, match the description given, match the sample or demonstration model and be of acceptable condition when received by you;

The CGA guarantees are in addition to any other warranty offer(s) provided by the manufacturer, or insurance provider (if applicable); and

The CGA does not apply where the product has been misused, broken or improperly operated.

Minor Fault
If a product sold by Awesome GadgetsNZ Ltd does not meet one of the guarantees detailed above or cannot be repaired within a reasonable period of time, we will either repair or replace the product with an identical product type. In the event a repair or replacement is not a viable option, or the repair cannot be carried out within a reasonable period of time, Awesome GadgetsNZ Ltd will refund you the original purchase price.

Major Fault
In the event a product cannot be repaired, due to the nature of the fault (safety risk) or the failure is of substantial character (i.e. multiple product failures), you may choose either a replacement of an identical product type or a refund of the original product purchase price (excluding the purchase of services).

What we will do 
When the product is initially returned, we may try to fix (troubleshoot) the problem in store, in consultation with the supplier, before sending it to an authorised repair agent for assessment.

If your returned product is still within the manufacturer’s warranty period, and after assessment is found to have a manufacturing fault, the repair and all associated costs will be free of charge;

If the product is outside of the manufacturer’s warranty period, but the fault is found to be a manufacturing fault this will be remedied in accordance with the CGA; or

If the product is outside of the manufacturer’s warranty period, and the fault found on assessment is not a manufacturing fault, the cost of assessment and repair will be payable by the customer.
