The Yarra Valley Pantry and Dandenong Ranges Pantry is a digital marketing platform operated by Yarra Ranges Tourism Ltd.
The Site markets the Goods of Sellers who have agreed to use the Site to market and sell their merchandise. When you place an Order for a Good, you are offering to buy that Good from the Seller directly. Yarra Ranges Tourism Ltd works as the Seller’s agent to put together buyers and Sellers and to facilitate purchases.
Any information you provide to Yarra Ranges Tourism Ltd via the Site is governed by Yarra Ranges Tourism Ltd’s privacy policy.
When you place an Order to purchase a Good via the Site, you are making an offer directly to the Seller. No order shall be deemed accepted by the Seller until Yarra Ranges Tourism Ltd (acting as the agent of the Seller) issues you with an email acknowledgement of order.
If you receive an email acknowledgement, a contract is formed between you and the Seller subject to the following terms:
1. Payment
You agree to pay the purchase price specified on the Site at the time that you place your Order for the purchase of a Good, and any applicable shipping charges based on the shipping options selected by you. All amounts are stated in Australian dollars. All purchase prices are subject to Australian GST (where applicable). Shipping charges will be separately shown.
You must pay for the Good online by the Site Payment Provider. Your payment will be processed upon receipt of your Order. The credit cards that are accepted from time to time will be described on the Site. A surcharge may apply for the use of certain credit cards, and where this is the case this will also be described on the Site.
You must apply discount codes at checkout. There is a limit of one discount code per transaction. Returned items that were purchased with a discount will be refunded at the discounted amount paid.
2. Cancellation of orders
(a) The Seller may cancel an Order that it has already accepted if the Seller suspects that you are acting fraudulently (such as using a credit card without proper authorisation) or in breach of these terms.
(b) While the Seller endeavours to avoid pricing and other errors, inadvertent errors do occur from time to time and the Seller may also cancel an Order that it has accepted in such circumstances.
(c) Unforeseen supply problems or unexpected demand may occasionally result in a Good being unavailable. If there is a delay in shipping your Order, Yarra Ranges Tourism Ltd’s Customer Service team will contact you as soon as possible to advise you of the reason for the delay. If this occurs, you may cancel your order at any time prior to when the Seller ships the Good to you.
PLEASE NOTE: Due to the increase in online volume of orders during the COVID-19 pandemic, suppliers are experiencing a slight delay in dispatching orders.
(d) You may also cancel an Order if the Seller is in breach of these terms.
3. Delivery
As seller-fulfilled orders are shipped from different individual Sellers, you pay a separate delivery charge for each item you order, even if you order a number of items from the same Seller at the same time.
(a) The Seller will normally ship the Good within 2 Business Days of receipt of your Order, unless otherwise noted in the Seller’s Display. Any delivery times displayed on the Site are estimates only, based on the information provided to the Seller by its shipping company.
(b) The Seller will deliver the Good to the place of delivery you specify when making your Order. Title to and risk in the Good will pass to you upon delivery of the Good to this place of delivery.
PLEASE NOTE: Due to the increase in online volume of orders during the COVID-19 pandemic, suppliers are experiencing a slight delay in dispatching orders.
4. Returns Policy
Please ensure you use a trackable or signed-for delivery service such as registered post, as we cannot credit your account until the item has been received by the seller. Yarra Ranges Tourism Ltd will not be held responsible for any damage or losses arising from the return shipment. For high value items, we advise the customer to purchase shipment insurance, as an additional measure to cover the full value of your goods.
You can only exchange items from the same seller to the same value of your original purchase. Please contact our customer service team for the seller’s address details to post your original purchase.
Please note: We will only accept an order return or exchange from the original purchaser or gift recipient with proof of purchase; a valid copy of the order confirmation or invoice.
The Seller will accept, for return or exchange, items that are in original condition, unworn, unused and free of damages. Items must be returned with all tags still attached and in their original packaging e.g. hampers, jars, staples. If these requirements are not met, the seller reserves the right to deny a return.
All items being returned must be dispatched/shipped within 10 days of the return being approved by Yarra Ranges Tourism Ltd.
If for any reason a product you have ordered is not available or out of stock, a refund will be credited to the original payment method.
To lodge a return, please email [email protected] and request a return.
