Freedom Homewares Change of Mind Policy

Version March 2023

For homewares products:

• purchased online; or
• purchased in-store and collected and paid for at the time of purchase; however
• excluding products listed below as ‘excluded products’;

in addition to the remedies available under the Freedom Warranty and applicable statute (including the Australia Consumer Law), if you change your mind you may return the product within 30 days of the date of (a) purchase, for instore purchases, or (b) delivery, for online purchases for a refund or exchange provided that the product is:

• returned in its original condition;
• in its original unopened and sealed packaging; and
• accompanied by proof of purchase (the sales receipt or another acceptable form of proof of purchase).

Excluded products are:

• upholstered and furniture products;
• clearance and sale products;
• products sold as seconds, floorstock, repaired products, or products that have a defect where this has been drawn to the customer’s attention before the purchase of the product; and
• made to order products – products which are made to individual customer specifications, including custom made furniture products, or custom fabric products, which have to be ordered specifically for a customer.

myFreedom - myFreedom Members on a valid membership have extended returns. You can view myFreedom Homewares Change of Mind Policy here.

Online Products - Products purchased online can be returned to any Freedom store, Australia wide in accordance with this policy. To find your local store, please click here.

Items posted to Freedom are at the customer’s cost and risk,

and Freedom will not refund customers for any products that it does not receive, or that it receives which are broken or damaged. Please make sure you appropriately pack any items before posting these to Freedom.

Except as set out above, Freedom will not provide a refund or exchange, or cancel a product which has been ordered if you simply change your mind, unless Freedom chooses to do so in our discretion.
If Freedom does choose to provide a refund or exchange (or cancel an order) simply due to a change of mind, we may ask you to pay a reasonable cancellation charge to us (for example, to cover reasonable storage fees and any mark down on products).  We will inform you in advance of the amount of that charge, and you may choose whether or not to proceed with the refund, exchange or cancellation.  If you do proceed:
•    we will reduce any refund payable to you in the amount of the cancellation charge; or
•    if the cancellation charge is more than what you have already paid, we will issue you with an invoice for that amount.

Australian Consumer Law: If you are a consumer under the Australian Consumer Law, you have certain rights, including under the consumer guarantees.  Nothing in this policy limits, excludes or modifies any rights you have that cannot lawfully be limited, excluded or modified.  
If you have a concern about an item you purchase at Freedom, please visit our full standard terms and conditions of purchase at Freedom’s In-store Customer Terms & Conditions for instore purchases, or Online Customer Terms & Conditions for online purchases.
