Returns

Burnt Thumb Group Ltd does not accept returns except where the basis of the return is covered by the Consumers Guarantees Act or Fair Trading Act.

If you think that you have a valid reason to return under the policies described below please contact us before sending your order. If you don't contact us first it could delay your request or result in your claim being rejected.

Refunds

In the unlikely event a product you have purchased from Burnt Thumb Group Ltd becomes faulty, we are committed to meeting our obligations under the New Zealand Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 (CGA). 

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;

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

In respect of products that are supplied by us:

If a product that is does not meet one of the guarantees detailed above or cannot be repaired within a reasonable period of time, we will 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, Burnt Thumb Group Ltd will refund you the original purchase price in the manner it was originally paid for.

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.

If you feel that your purchase has a fault please contact us, using the Returns page including as much detail as possible so that we can assess the problem and advise you of a solution. This could be a repair, replacement or refund. We reserve the right to provide the best possible solution based on availability of stock.

Delivery charges and other fees incurred will not be refunded.

Exchange

We make every effort to make sure our product descriptions are as detailed as possible and that includes sizing and colour guides for the type of product. Please choose carefully as we are unable to exchange product once you've received your order unless we, or the Merchant, have made a genuine mistake in our description (and yes, it can happen) or where your request to exchange is covered by the Consumers Guarantees Act or Fair Trading Act.

If you think you have a case for a genuine exchange request then please contact us, using the Returns page, before sending your order back to us as it may get declined and returned to you. Please note products returned for an exchange must be in a resalable condition with packaging intact and all labels etc. returned with the item.
