RETURNS & REFUNDS 

​

We want you to love your Tabletime products. While we don't accept returns or refunds for change of mind, your rights under Australian Consumer Law are always protected.

​

​

​

Faulty or Damaged Products

If your Tabletime product arrives faulty, damaged or doesn't meet the consumer guarantees that apply to your purchase, please contact our Customer Care team at info@tabletime.co.nz as soon as possible.

Please include:

  • Your order number

  • A description of the issue

  • Photos of the product and any damage

  • Photos of the packaging, where relevant

We may ask you to return the product or provide further information so we can assess the issue.

Where a product is confirmed to be faulty or otherwise covered by a consumer guarantee, we will provide an appropriate remedy in accordance with Australian Consumer Law. Depending on the circumstances, this may include a replacement, repair or refund.

If a replacement is arranged, we will organise for the replacement product to be sent to you.

​

Change of Mind

We do not accept returns or provide refunds simply because you have changed your mind or no longer want the item.

We encourage you to carefully check the product information and colour before placing your order. If you're unsure about anything, our Customer Care team is always happy to help before you purchase.

​

Packaging

Where a return is required, we ask that the product is returned with its original packaging where reasonably possible. This helps us assess the product and process your request efficiently.

However, your rights under Australian Consumer Law are not excluded simply because you no longer have the original packaging.

​

We're Here to Help

If something isn't right with your order, please get in touch. We want to make the process as easy as possible and will work with you to find the best solution.
