FAULTY GOODS

SPORTFIRST returns and exchange policy is consistent with the ACCC guidelines.

The policy only applies to footwear, apparel and small sports equipment and accessory

items normally stocked by most SPORTFIRST stores

If a product or service you buy fails to meet a consumer guarantee, you have the right to ask for a repair, replacement or refund under the Australian Consumer Law. A consumer can ask for their preference of a free repair, replacement or refund, but are not always entitled to one. For example, the consumer guarantees do not apply if you got what you asked for but simply changed your mind, found it cheaper somewhere else, decided you did not like the purchase or had no use for it. If the consumer has a minor problem with a product or service, SPORTFIRST can choose to give you a free repair instead of a replacement or refund.

When the consumer has a major problem with a product, you have the right to ask for your choice of a replacement or refund.

For more information regarding consumer rights please visit:

If seeking a refund on what you deem a faulty product, we will assess your product looking to see if it is faulty or not as advertised. This may take up to 2 weeks. You will be notified of the outcome. Where possible, we will offer to repair faulty items. If the issue is not repairable or the same product is not available, you are entitled to a full refund in the original tender.

GIFT CARDS

Gift cards cannot be exchanged or refunded and will expire 36 months from the purchase date. Please be aware that gift cards are treated as a legal form of tender, like cash if they are lost then they will not be replaced.
