7. Inspection of Returned Products
Returned products may be inspected upon receipt to determine whether they meet the requirements of this policy and whether a fault or other issue exists.

Where a product is returned because of an alleged fault or defect, Scavenger Supplies, may assess the product to determine the appropriate remedy.
8. Refunds
Where a refund is approved, the refund will generally be processed using the original payment method.
Processing times may vary depending on your payment provider or financial institution, please allow upto 7 business after the refund is approval in writing from Scavenger Supplies.

9. Exchanges
Where appropriate, we may offer an exchange for an alternative product.
Exchanges are subject to product availability and may be subject to price differences.

Products that are specially ordered, custom manufactured, sourced specifically for a customer, modified, cut to size or supplied specifically to meet a customer's requirements may be subject to additional return conditions.
For commercial, trade, project or bulk orders, return arrangements may differ depending on the nature of the product and the agreed terms of sale.
Please contact our team before returning any specially ordered or project-specific product.
11. Australian Consumer Law
Nothing in this policy excludes, restricts or modifies any rights or remedies available to you under the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth), including the Australian Consumer Law, where those rights cannot legally be excluded, restricted or modified.
Australian Consumer Law provides consumers with automatic consumer guarantees. Depending on the circumstances, these guarantees may provide rights to a repair, replacement, refund or other remedy where a product does not meet the required guarantees.
Our change-of-mind return policy does not limit or replace your rights under the Australian Consumer Law.
