Products sold on a `No Returns Basis'
Carromex Pty Ltd is entitled to supply certain No Fault Products on a 'No Returns Basis'.

The Customer should ask Carromex Pty Ltd if the selected item sold at www.carromex.com.au is sold on a No Returns Basis. It is not possible to list items in separate return categories at www.carromex.com.au
To the extent permitted by law, Carromex Pty Ltd reserves the right to apply the No Returns Basis policy to any promotional or sale product(s) as it deems necessary.
Returns procedure
When returning Products for credit, Customers must contact Carromex’s Returns Operator by e-mail, phone or fax to obtain an RA number. This RA number is valid for up to 14 days from the date of issue by Carromex.
The Customer must supply:
the date of purchase of the Products and the Carromex Pty Ltd invoice or serial number of the Products; and a valid purchase order number when requesting an RA number, so that the Customer’s Carromex Pty Ltd trading account can be charged for the return.
Once the Returns Operator has identified the Product, a purchase order for the return will be raised and the Customer will be issued with an RA number. This number must be used in all correspondence relating to the Product.
All Products returned for credit must be in a pristine and unopened condition with all seals intact. All inward freight will be the responsibility of the Customer. Carromex Pty Ltd will not cover the cost of freight on returned Products and will not accept responsibility for any damage or loss suffered by the Customer.
Customers must return the Product to Carromex Pty Ltd with the RA number clearly written on a removable sticky label on the outside of the shipping carton. This number must not be directly written on the carton. If proof of purchase is required by Carromex, a copy of the Carromex Pty Ltd sales invoice must be faxed to the RA Department before the RA number can be issued.
Returns should be sent to:
RA Department
10J, 19-21 George Street
North Strathfield 2137
If the RA number cannot be identified, or if the returned Product does not match the RA paperwork issued by Carromex Pty Ltd in terms of either quantity or Carromex Pty Ltd SKU (ie Product code), Carromex Pty Ltd may reject the returned Product at the Carromex Pty Ltd and return it to the Customer, at the Customer's expense.

Warranty repairs
There is no charge for repairing products covered by warranty.
Procedure:
Contact the appropriate service centre to obtain a Return Authorisation number. Some products are not handled by Carromex Pty Ltd - please check the list of vendors that handle warranty services. Proof of purchase, as well as the model number and serial number of the product must be supplied. Some service centres will ask for this information to be faxed to them before the return authorisation is issued.
Once the Return Authorisation number is issued the product should be shipped to the appropriate service centre, (unless the product is covered by on site warranty). The Return Authorisation number should be clearly written on a sticky label placed on the outside of the shipping carton - do not write directly on the carton. If the number cannot be identified the product will be returned immediately at the Customers expense.
All software products are covered by a 90 day warranty from the date of purchase by the end-user. Any failure of software products due to misuse of the product or hard disk failure is not covered by warranty.
Repairs handled by Carromex
Please supply the Carromex Pty Ltd invoice number, product information and serial number of the product. Once the operator has identified the product, a Return Authorisation (RA) number will be issued. The RA number is valid for 14 days. This number must be used in all correspondence relating to the return.
If Carromex Pty Ltd is honouring the warranty, the Customer is responsible for freight to the Sydney Distribution Centre. Carromex Pty Ltd will be responsible for return freight of the product as soon as it has been exchanged.
Carromex Pty Ltd will exchange the product within 5 working days of its receipt, (exceptions to this may occur from time to time, eg depending on stock availability). Where the product is exchanged, only the components received will be replaced and returned in the packaging, as Carromex Pty Ltd received it.
Carromex Pty Ltd recommends that product returned by post should be sent by registered or certified mail. Carromex Pty Ltd accepts no responsibility for loss or damage occurring in transit.
Please note
Several vendors provide their own warranty and repair services direct to Customers. Please check the listing of vendors who provide their own warranty and repair services direct to Customers before contacting Carromex’s return centre.
Discontinued Products
Carromex Pty Ltd will, under instructions from its vendors, discontinue some products from time to time. Customers' right to return these discontinued products may be limited.
