Refund/Returns Policy/Cancellations/Warranty

We are obliged to fulfil our obligations under the Consumer Guarantees Act.

This means we will offer a refund if a part is faulty and we cannot repair or replace it for you. We are not obligated to refund you if you change your mind on any purchase (whether shipped or not).  In some cases, a store credit will be given upon return of the goods in new condition (solely at our discretion).

Special Orders (products purchases that aren't in stock and ordered in specifically for customers) will not be refunded for any other reason other than those laid out in the CGA as it pertains to warranty/repair issues. Special Orders cannot be cancelled.

A restocking fee of 20% of the purchase price will apply to any returned part (as approved by Speed Science). All returned parts must be 'as new' and salable. Any parts that have been fitted, marked or damaged in anyway will not be accepted for return.

Please read the Speed Science Shipping Policy as it has important information relating to overseas orders, the need to pay local customs fees/taxes and applicable charges if an order is returned. 

Subsequent damage to other parts/products due to the failure of a product (supplied by Speed Science) is not covered under warranty. Nor is the damage to a Speed Science supplied product due to the failure of product NOT supplied by Speed Science.

There is no warrantee for parts used in race or drag cars due to the nature of use and risk of damage.
