While we endeavour to ensure that the price and description of goods or services are accurate, if there is an error in the process of listing a product or service on our website or a technical error in the processing of your order, we reserve the right to refuse or cancel the order.

 We do therefore reserve the right to cancel any such orders for which pricing was wrong or inaccurate without further notice to the customer and refund these payments promptly.

Example Below from Consumer.org.nz

You don't have the right to return goods simply because you've changed your mind or your circumstances have changed.

Say you bought a smartphone. What if:

  • Your partner bought you one as a surprise on the same day. Can you take one of them back?
  • You really wanted a pink one. Can you swap?
  • The same phone is $100 cheaper in the shop next door. Can you get a refund?

The answer to all these questions is no. The retailer is under no legal obligation to give you your money back or exchange the product.
