MRRP - Manufacturer’s Recommended Retail Price

The MRRP is the sale price suggested by the manufacturer or distributor of merchandise.

• The Manufacturer's Recommended Retail Price (MRRP) is not mandatory, although manufacturers and distributors may suggest that retail outlets maintain a price within the range of their suggestion.
• In cases where a product is an exclusive offer available only on Madbuy.com.au, MRRP may indicate the retail price of a product with similar features and specifications.
• In some cases, an MRRP price may be provided by a manufacturer who manufactures and supplies on the foreign market. In these cases, the suggested retail price (usually a US dollar amount) is converted to the Australian dollar rate that prevails at the time of listing.
• Customers should note that the MRRP is the applicable indicative price at the time of listing, and may not reflect current market conditions.
• Customers are encouraged to compare prices via comparative price shopping engines online and through various other means in order to find the best deal. MRRP is not the same as ‘street price’ - Street Price can be broadly defined as the price at which the item actually sells in the free market.
• Madbuy.com.au is committed to providing the very best prices and unbeatable value to its customers. We welcome feedback and notice of price rollbacks in the market.

This option is only possible if you have chosen Registered post as shipping method.

We will use our reasonable efforts to deliver your Products to you within the estimated delivery time indicated on your Order Confirmation; however, we do not guarantee that we will deliver within this time frame.

Dead On Arrival Products - "DOA"

A Madbuy Product is considered DOA if it shows symptoms of a failure, or is discovered to be broken when first taken from its packaging.

A Madbuy Customer Service member will provisionally determine whether the Product is DOA. Where a Product is provisionally determined as DOA we will arrange to replace the Product.

Refunds will only be offered where a replacement Product can not be provided.

Where Madbuy has provisionally determined that a Product is DOA, return shipping will be arranged at the expense of Madbuy.

If the Product is deemed by Customer Services NOT to be DOA, Madbuy may in its absolute discretion refuse to replace the Product or offer you a refund for the Product.

When a Product is replaced, your replacement Product becomes your property and the returned DOA Product becomes our property.

When a refund is given, the returned DOA Product becomes our property.

Madbuy reserves the right to test any returned DOA Product. If the condition of the Product was misrepresented to us by the customer, Madbuy will impose a $35 handling and administration fee.

Product Problems After Delivery

If your item arrives DOA (Dead On Arrival) or you find a defect arises after delivery and a valid claim is received by Customer Service within 30 days of delivery, Madbuy will exchange the Product where possible, or refund you the purchase price of the Product. Should you contact us outside the 30 day period customer service management will consider each claim on a case by case basis on its merits.

Where we agree to replace the Product or refund you the purchase price of the Product, you must first return the defective Product to us. You will be obliged to pay for the return of the Product if the item is sent after 30 days from dispatch.

We will make arrangements with you for the return of the Product.

The delivery time for replacing the Product will be the same as stated for the original Product.

Replacement Products are provided with the same Warranty as the returned Product.

The Product should be returned to Madbuy within 30 calendar days of the issuance of the RAN. All Products must be packed in the original, unmarked packaging including any accessories, manuals, documentation and registration that shipped with the Product.

Organizing the Return of DOA Products

DOA Products must be returned whenever we agree to replace the Product or provide you with a refund.

Where you received a DOA Product by Australia Post eParcel, Customer Service will email you a PDF docket containing a RAN which you must affix to the Product. You must then leave the Product at any Australia Post Office.

Where you have received a DOA Product by our courier service, we will make arrangements with our courier service for collection of the Product, and will notify you when they will collect the Product from you.
