PRODUCT INFORMATION

Prices of goods and services and delivery and other charges displayed on the Source Direct website are current at the time of display. These prices are subject to variation without notice.

We will always attempt to be as accurate as possible with our product descriptions and pricing. However, we are unable to warrant that product descriptions or other content of the website is accurate, complete, reliable, current or error free.

PLACING AND ACCEPTING ORDERS

Orders will not be despatched until payment in full has been received (or billed to account for approved account holders) and Source Direct is satisfied with the integrity of the order.

Without limiting the operation of any other Terms and Conditions herein, Source Direct is not responsible for any loss or damage caused by late delivery or cancellation of an order or a product.

Placement of an order by you constitutes an offer to enter into an agreement with us (“your offer”). We will email you an Order Confirmation for the sole purpose of confirming the details of your offer. Please note that our Order Confirmation does not constitute an acceptance of your offer or reflect the status of your order in any way.

CANCELLATION

Cancellation by Us
We reserve the right not to provide goods or services, terminate customer accounts, remove or edit content or cancel orders (or part thereof) at our sole discretion at any time. Without limiting the operation of any other Terms and Conditions herein, we will not be held liable for loss or damage arising from the exercising of these rights.
Cancellation by You
If you need to cancel an order, please contact us immediately on 1300 447 957 or fax (03) 9421 4404. Our agreement with you only comes into existence once we have both confirmed your order and your payment has been processed. Once we have accepted payment for an order, cancellation of the order is within our sole discretion. Orders that cannot be cancelled will be subject to our terms, conditions and policies relating to Returns and Exchanges.

DELIVERY

It is your obligation to enter the correct delivery address details at the time of ordering. Should you enter the wrong address, we are not obliged to re-send the order to the correct address at our expense.

We will provide you with an estimated date for delivery of all parcels. While we make every effort to deliver by this time, all dates specified are estimates only. We have aligned ourselves with delivery and logistics partners who we believe will always do their best to deliver products by the estimated delivery date.

It is the responsibility of the customer to inform Source Direct if an order does not arrive. Once we learn an order has not arrived by the due date, we will lodge enquiries with the logistics company to ensure delivery occurs as soon as possible. We will not be held liable for any loss or damage resulting from late delivery.

Please note that if an item has been lost in transit, we will not despatch a replacement item immediately. Replacement items will be despatched according to our discretion.

As a guide only, our delivery companies attempt to deliver to business addresses between 9am and 5pm, and to home addresses up until 6pm. Unfortunately, we are unable to give a guaranteed time of delivery.

You agree to the “Recipient to sign for delivery” option when placing an order with us. By doing so, you agree that we have satisfied the condition where a signature has been received from the recipient, appropriate agent or proxy recipient of the order (chosen at the delivery company’s discretion). This includes, but is not limited to, a hotel or office receptionist signing on receipt of delivery at the specified address. You agree that in doing so we have delivered the order within the terms of the agreement between you and us.

Goods may be delivered to the supplied delivery address up until 5.00pm. If the incorrect delivery address is supplied or if there is no safe place to leave the goods when no-one is available, they will be returned to the depot and we will contact you to arrange re-delivery. Re-delivery on the same day as the original delivery date will incur an additional fee. Redelivery on a subsequent date will also incur a charge, calculated according to the delivery address and order details. To avoid these costs, please carefully consider the delivery address you enter.

Please note: We recommend that you enter a delivery address where someone will be there during the hours of 9am and 5.00pm on the delivery day.

Without limiting the operation of any other Terms and Conditions herein, we will not accept liability for any loss or damage arising from a late delivery.

Without limiting the operation of any other Terms and Conditions herein, you agree that late delivery does not constitute a failure of our agreement, and does not entitle you to cancellation of an order.

Without limiting the operation of any other Terms and Conditions herein, we will not accept liability for any loss or damage arising from items lost, stolen or damaged after delivery has taken place.
