Returns & Refund Policy

Barn Light Australia is committed to excellence in online retailing. Customer satisfaction is an integral part of this commitment and this is reflected in our Returns Policy. We are not required to provide you with a copy of your original receipt to facilitate an exchange, refund, insurance or warranty claim unless required by law.

Barn Light Australia will assess the condition and age of all Goods sold to be returned prior to offering a repair, exchange or refund. If the Goods are not faulty or has been damaged due to misuse, a repair, exchange or refund may be refused. This Return Policy does not exclude or replace your rights given under relevant consumer law or regulations.

If we make a mistake on your order, we will correct the mistake and get you the correct products at no charge to you. We will arrange to pick up the incorrect items to be shipped back to our warehouse at no cost to you. It is our goal to exceed your expectations and ultimately your purchase.

If you have simply changed your mind and you are able to provide a valid receipt, Barn Light Australia may offer you an exchange or refund provided that the Goods:

(a) Is in saleable condition

(b) Has not been installed with all original packaging and stickers attached

(c) Is not subject to the exclusions listed below and exchange or refund is sought within 90 days of purchase

If you are unable to provide a valid receipt and/or 7 (seven) days has passed since the original purchase date, Barn Light Australia reserves the right not to offer an exchange or refund for change of mind. Barn Light Australia may, at its discretion, provide you with an exchange to the current value of the Goods.

Please choose carefully when purchasing Bulky Goods as an exchange or refund may not be provided. Barn Light Australia may, at its discretion, offer you an exchange or refund provided that the product is in saleable condition, unworn with all original packaging and stickers attached and the exchange or refund is sought within 7 (seven) days of purchase.

Where Goods were purchased with a gift certificate or bonus Good, the gift certificate or bonus good must also be returned unless otherwise stated. If you are unable to return the gift or bonus or it is not in saleable condition, the value of a refund will be reduced by the value of the gift or bonus at retail prices.

Where a bonus Gift certificate is issued at the time of purchase, the bonus Gift certificate credit must also be returned with the Goods to qualify for a full exchange or refund. Where the bonus Gift certificate has been fully or partially redeemed, the amount redeemed will be deducted from any refund.

A Gift certificate is considered a valid receipt where the code is visible and can be used to make an exchange or return.

This policy applies to all purchases made from Barn Light Australia.

You will need to present or quote the Order Confirmation number (Emailed) and/or Gift certificate receipt number you received with the Goods to obtain an exchange or refund. Change of mind returns, as outlined above, must be requested within 7 (seven) days of the sale. When the Order Confirmation number is presented and a refund is to be given, it will be processed to the same credit card. In the event the credit-card has expired, we will require additional details depending on the preferred refund method requested.

With Gift certificates, if a refund is to be given, the payment will be returned to the same credit card used to make the original Gift certificate purchase (for the avoidance of doubt, only the person who purchased the gift certificate is eligible for a full refund)
