FAQs

Because we choose our products with care, we want you to have confidence in the products we sell. Therefore, we offer a money back guarantee on MOST of the products we sell.

If you're not happy with your item and we can't solve the issue for you, you may return your order in “as sold” condition for a refund of the purchase price (shipping and handling are non-refundable).

Your guarantee starts on receipt of the item(s) and you may return your item within the next 7 days in original condition for a refund.

Complete Outdoors makes every effort to provide accurate information and prices on all products advertised. There may be the odd occasion when there is a mistake in a description or the price has been listed incorrectly. If this is the case then we will do what we can to rectify these problems with the customer and fix these listings straight away. These are the steps we will take:

1) Description Mistakes - These will be corrected on our websites as soon as we are notified. If the mistake means that the product is no longer suitable for the purchaser then we will look for a suitable alternative or offer a refund and make arrangements to get the product back to us.

2) Pricing Errors - If we have made a genuine mistake and listed a product at an  incorrect price that is below our cost, we will inform the customer immediately.  It is our intention to look after our customer in this situation although it may not be possible to sell it to them at this price. In this circumstance we will offer the customer a heavily discounted price from the correct price or offer an alternative product. The customer also has the option to back out of the sale. This is in accordance with the Fair Trading Act.

Complete Outdoors endeavours to have available stock on hand for every website item advertised. There may be times however when our stock system is incorrect, or that we have sold an item in store a short time before an item is purchased online. Generally stock can be ordered and available to us within a week. If a product sold is out of stock these are the procedures we take:

1) We will contact the customer as soon as we realise the item is out of stock. If the customer has time constraints we will do everything possible to get the item to the customer on time or offer an alternative product.

2) In the instance that our supplier is also out of stock, we will offer an alternative or upgraded product to the customer. 

We request that if a pick up is required, that the customer arrange a time with us to pick up so that we can ensure that the product is ready for pick up.
