For the avoidance of doubt, any such troubleshooting process shall not constitute an inspection by Us of Your Enrolled Product for the purposes of section 4.6 (‘Repair period guarantee’).

4.2 Simple replacement (Enrolled Products with an Original Purchase Price of $500 or less)

If the Original Purchase Price for Your Enrolled Product is $500 or less and We have confirmed that it has suffered a Mechanical or Electrical Failure, Your Enrolled Product will be replaced so You don’t have to wait for it to be repaired.

How simple replacement works: If Your Enrolled Product is a Small Appliance:

the Concierge Team will provide You with a claim number to take to The Good Guys store of Your choosing with Your Enrolled Product and any accessories;

you may be required to participate in to troubleshooting on Your Enrolled Product; our team will assess Your Enrolled Product in-store to verify that it has suffered a Mechanical or Electrical Failure; upon verification that Your Enrolled Product has suffered a Mechanical or Electrical Failure, an Equivalent Replacement Product will be issued as per section 4.5 (‘Replacement terms’) in these Terms and Conditions.

If Your Enrolled Product is a Large Appliance:

the Concierge Team will arrange for an authorised agent to complete an in home assessment of Your Enrolled Product to verify that it has suffered a Mechanical or Electrical Failure; and

you may be required to participate in troubleshooting on Your Enrolled Product;

once We have confirmed that Your Enrolled Product has suffered a Mechanical or Electrical Failure, the Concierge Team will provide You with a claim number to take to The Good Guys store of Your choice, where an Equivalent Replacement Product will be issued in accordance with section

4.5 (‘Replacement terms’) in these Terms and Conditions.

In some circumstances, You may prefer to have Your Enrolled Product repaired rather than replaced. If You make such a request, We may offer You this option at Our discretion.

4.3 Repair or replacement (Enrolled Products with an Original Purchase Price greater than $500))

If the Original Purchase Price of Your Enrolled Product is more than $500, then:

(a) if Your Enrolled Product is a Large Appliance, the Concierge Team will contact an authorised agent on Your behalf and arrange an assessment of Your Enrolled Product. The authorised agent will contact You to confirm an appointment time that is convenient without You needing to leave home;

(b) You may be required to participate in troubleshooting on Your Enrolled Product

4.4 Repair terms

Your Enrolled Product needs to be in Australia in order to be repaired.

Repairs and/or costs associated with repairs to Your Enrolled Product will be at no cost to You provided they are not subject to an exclusion in these Terms and Conditions.

We will repair Your Enrolled Product or relevant parts with the same or equivalent parts. We may replace Your Product with a refurbished Equivalent Replacement Product, rather than repairing it and the replacement of Your Enrolled Product with a refurbished Equivalent Replacement Product will be deemed a repair for the purposes of these Terms and Conditions. Refurbished parts may also be used to repair Your Enrolled Product.

4.5 Replacement terms

Your Enrolled Product needs to be in Australia in order to be replaced.

We will determine what is an Equivalent Replacement Product. Where possible, We will provide you with up to 3 Equivalent Replacement Product options to choose from prior to processing Your Replacement Claim.

If We delivered Your Enrolled Product to You when You purchased it and You elect to receive one of the Equivalent Replacement Product options offered to You, then We will deliver (at Our own cost) your chosen Equivalent Replacement Product to Your home (and if Your faulty Enrolled Product is still in Your possession, remove it from Your home at no charge to You).

Additionally, if The Good Guys Home Services installed Your Enrolled Product, when You purchased it and You elect to receive one of the Equivalent Replacement Product options offered to You, then We will (at Our own cost) ensure that The Good Guys Home Services installs your chosen Equivalent Replacement product at Your home (and if Your faulty Enrolled Product is still in Your possession, remove it from Your home at no charge to You). Please note the following if Your Enrolled Product is to be replaced:

If none of the Equivalent Replacement Product options offered are acceptable to You, You may request an alternative replacement product with similar specifications from Us. If You do so, We may at our discretion allow You to select an alternative product with similar specifications valued at no more than the Original Purchase Price of Your Enrolled Product.

If the Equivalent Replacement Product chosen by You has a price which is lower than the Original Purchase Price of Your Enrolled Product, or You elect to receive a product that is not an Equivalent Replacement Product and that product has a lower price than the Original Purchase Price of Your Enrolled Product, You will not be entitled to a refund of the difference between the Original Purchase Price of Your Enrolled Product and the value of Your chosen Equivalent Replacement Product or other selected product, unless We determine otherwise.

• If We offer You an Equivalent Replacement Product but You instead elect to receive a product that is not an Equivalent Replacement Product (Non-Equivalent Replacement Product) and that Non-Equivalent Replacement Product has a price which is higher than the Equivalent Replacement Product(s) offered to You, You will be required to pay the difference in price between the Non-Equivalent Replacement Product and the Equivalent Replacement Product (with the highest price) offered to You.

• If We reasonably believe that We cannot provide You with an Equivalent Replacement Product, We will provide You with a Store Credit to the value of the Original Purchase Price of Your Enrolled Product in lieu of an Equivalent Replacement Product.

Whether Your The Good Guys Gold Services Extras will continue to apply after Your Enrolled Product is replaced will depend on the circumstances in which Your Enrolled Product is replaced:

If Your Repair/Replacement Claim is made within the Replacement Product Transfer Period and you wish to add The Good Guys Gold Service Extras to (as the case may be) Your chosen Equivalent Replacement Product, Your chosen Non-Equivalent Replacement Product or the replacement product You purchased with a Store Credit provided to You in lieu of an Equivalent Replacement Product (Chosen Replacement Option), then we may offer You a credit up to the original price paid by You for Your The Good Guys Gold Service Extras Membership, that you can put towards a new The Good Guys Gold Service Extras membership to cover Your Chosen Replacement Option.

o if You choose to take up Our offer to apply this credit towards the cost of a new The Good Guys Gold Service Extras membership to cover Your Chosen Replacement Option, Your existing The Good Guys Gold Services Extras membership will cease, and any remaining entitlements under that The Good Guys Gold Service Extras membership will be forfeited.

You will not be able to make a Repair/ Replacement Claim under Your The Good Guys Gold Service Extras membership in relation to Your Chosen Replacement Option.

• If Your Repair/Replacement Claim is made after the expiry of the Replacement Product Transfer Period, You will not be able to make a Repair/Replacement Claim under Your The Good Guys Gold Service Extras membership in relation to Your Chosen Replacement Option. Your remaining The Good Guys Gold Service Extras membership entitlements and benefits referred to in section 5 (‘Other Gold Service Extras member benefits’) of these Terms and Conditions, including Concierge Store Credits and access to Concierge Rewards, will continue for the remainder of the term of Your The Good Guys Gold Service Extras membership.

Where We have replaced Your Enrolled Product with Your Chosen Replacement Option, Your Enrolled Product will become Our property. You may dispose of the Enrolled Product if We agree in writing prior to You disposing of it.

If Your Enrolled Product suffers a Mechanical or Electrical Failure which only relates to an attachment or accessory, the attachment/accessory may be replaced (subject to the exclusions in section 3.3 (‘Eligible products’), section 6.1 (‘Excluded faults’), section 6.2 (‘Excluded repairs’) and section 6.3 (‘Excluded costs, loss and damages’ of these Terms and Conditions), rather than replacing Your Enrolled Product.

If We agree to replace your Enrolled Product with Your Chosen Replacement Option then You will have 90 days from the date on which we agree to arrange the collection of or take delivery of your Chosen Replacement Option and finalise your claim. If you have not done so within this 90 day period, You will be required to raise a new replacement request for Your Enrolled Product. We will assess this new replacement request at that time, independently from Your previous replacement product request.
