Conditions carefully before placing an order with us.
These Terms & Conditions apply only to goods purchased through XDS online

("XDS", "XLAB", "us," "we" or "our"), regarding your access to and use of
XDS's website(s) and all content, information, product(s) and services
available on or through those website(s) (collectively, the "Website").
Each time you use the Website you signify your acceptance and agreement, and
the acceptance and agreement of any person you purport to represent, to be
bound by this Agreement as it then reads, and you represent and warrant that
you have the legal authority to agree to and accept this Agreement on behalf
of yourself and any person you purport to represent. If you do not agree
with each provision of this Agreement, or you are not authorised to agree to
and accept this Agreement on behalf of the person you purport to represent,
you may not access or use the Website.
2. Privacy policy
Our Privacy Policy applies to your access and use of this Website, including
any personal information provided by you via this Website. The terms and
conditions of our Privacy Policy are hereby incorporated by reference into
these Terms. In addition, the Privacy Policy is subject to the terms and
conditions of these Terms and in the event of conflict between these Terms
and the Privacy Policy, these Terms shall govern and prevail. If you do not
agree with the Privacy Policy, do not use this Website.
3. Terms governing all orders
These Terms apply to any and all purchases made by you from XDS via the
Website. If you place an order with XDS it means you have read and expressly
agree, consent to, and accept these Terms. You must be 18 years or older to
make a purchase on this Website. These Terms apply to all sales of bicycles,
clothing, and any and all other goods and product(s) offered on this Website
(collectively, "Product(s)"). In the event of any inconsistency or conflict
between these Terms and any provision in any Consumer-submitted order or
writing, in any other document writing, or any oral arrangement in
connection with an order of any Product(s), these Terms shall govern and
control (and any inconsistent provisions shall be void). XDS reserves the
right to change or modify these Terms at any time in its sole discretion.
Notice of any such changes to these Terms will be provided by XDS by posting
a notification on this Website or updating the date referenced at the top of
the revised Terms, or as otherwise deemed appropriate by XDS. Any such
changes will apply only to orders placed after the time such changes become
effective. XDS's right to require strict observance and performance of each
of these Terms shall not be reduced, vitiated, or otherwise affected by any
current or past waiver of any of these Terms (or by any previous course of
dealing).
4. Orders and acceptance
When you place an order on the Website, such order will not be deemed
accepted by XDS unless and until an "Order Confirmation" acknowledgment is
sent to you via email by XDS. Orders can only be modified or cancelled up
until the order status becomes "Shipped". After this point, you must
initiate a return in accordance with section 12 below if you wish to
exchange or cancel your order.
All orders are subject to the availability of the ordered Product(s). XDS
reserves the right to impose quantity limits on any order, to reject all or
part of an order, and to discontinue product(s) or services without notice,
even if you have already placed your order.
Even if an order has been accepted, XDS may subsequently cancel such order
in whole or in part due to Product(s) availability (including without
limitation, any discontinuation of the Product(s) or Product shortage) or if
the order contains an obvious inadvertent pricing error. You will be
notified of any order cancellation and any amounts you have paid to XDS in
respect of such order shall be refunded as set forth in the "Return Policy"
paragraph of these Terms.
5. Out of stock / backorder
Under rare circumstances, an item may become out of stock before we are able
to ship out the order. We will always contact you prior to shipment if this
happens and we will try our best to remedy the situation and will notify you
of the date by which the item will become available. However, due to
limitations we cannot accept back orders. If you wish to substitute an item
you will need to contact us to arrange for a substitute or to cancel your
order outright. If the item is not available we will cancel your order. If
your payment has already been processed for the purchase when your order is
cancelled, XDS will issue a credit to the payment method used in the amount
of the charge. Individual bank policies will dictate when this amount is
credited to your account. In the event that we are unable to contact you
within 10 working days, the order will be deemed cancelled and any sums you
have already paid to us in respect of the goods shall be refunded to you.
6. Payment methods
All orders must be paid in full prior to shipment. XDS accepts payment via
MasterCard & Visa credit cards and debit cards as well as ZIP and
PayPal. For ZIP and other Buy Now, Pay Later services' terms and conditions,
please refer to their product terms and conditions which are linked at the
checkout. Payment information is submitted by you upon the placement of any
order, and acceptance, fulfillment and shipping of the order by XDS is
subject to verification of payment information and availability of funds.
Only valid credit or debit cards acceptable to us may be used and all
refunds will be credited to the same payment method used for the purchase.
By submitting your order, you represent and warrant that you are authorised
to use the designated credit or debit card and authorise us to charge your
order (including Taxes, shipping, handling and any other amounts described
on this Website) to that credit or debit card. If the credit or debit card
cannot be verified, is invalid, or is not otherwise acceptable, your order
may be suspended or cancelled automatically.
Unfortunately, we cannot work out credit card problems with your financial
institution if a credit card is declined. It is your responsibility to
settle credit card problems with the issuing institution, and then place the
order again when the problem is resolved.
If a credit card authorisation fails, we reserve the right to cancel your
order.
7. Goods and Services Tax (GST)
All prices quoted on our Website are in Australian Dollars and are inclusive
of GST.
8. Price and/or description changes
Prices may change from time to time without notice. Any price change will
apply to orders placed after the updated price takes effect and will not
ordinarily alter the agreed price of an order that has already been accepted
by GFL.
Where a saving, discount or comparison price is displayed for a product, the
saving is calculated against the reference price identified for that
product. The reference price may include, as applicable, the lower of: (i)
the manufacturer's recommended retail price (RRP); or (ii) the applicable
ticketed, regular or former selling price. Any comparison price or
advertised saving is intended to represent a genuine reference price at the
time the representation is made. Promotional prices may apply for a limited
period or while stocks last and may be subject to additional promotional
terms.
9. Errors on our website
We will take reasonable steps to ensure our descriptions and prices
displayed on the Website are accurate.
Prices, product descriptions and availability of product(s) are subject to
change without notice.
Any errors will be corrected where and when discovered. XDS reserves the
right to withdraw a stated offer or cancel an order if there is an error,
inaccuracy or omission in a stated offer or product description, including
after an order has been submitted and whether or not the order has been
confirmed and your payment processed.
If your payment has already been processed for the purchase when your order
is cancelled, XDS will issue a credit to the payment method used in the
amount of the charge. Individual bank policies will dictate when this amount
is credited to your account.
10. Click and Collect shipping policy
You will have the option to choose the pick-up location from a participating
authorised XDS retailer in your area ('Click and Collect'). XDS will notify
you via email when the good(s) are available for pick-up at your chosen
authorised XDS retailer ('Selected XDS Retailer'). Orders which contain a
bicycle must be provided via Click and Collect. You also have the option to
Click and Collect orders which do not include bicycles.
It is your responsibility to ensure your Selected XDS Retailer is correct as
it will not be possible to change to a different retailer once your Click
and Collect order has been submitted.
You agree to collect your Product(s) at the Selected XDS Retailer within 7
business days of receiving an email notifying you that your goods are ready
for pick-up. If you are unable to pick-up your goods within 7 business days,
you will contact your Selected XDS Retailer to organise an alternative
pick-up day. At the time of pick-up, you agree to present to your Selected
XDS Retailer: (i) the original "Order Confirmation" email; (ii) a government
issued identification card (such a valid driver's license or passport) to
verify your identity; (iii) the credit card used for the transaction (this
is not required for Buy Now, Pay Later transactions including Zip or
Afterpay); and (iv) provide a signature for orders over $2,000 in value.
If you fail to collect the product(s) and/or fail to contact your Selected
XDS Retailer within 14 business days after receiving email notification that
the product(s) are ready for collection (or such later date agreed in
writing by us or the Selected XDS Retailer), we may cancel your order by
notifying you via email. Any cancellation under this clause will be treated
as a change of mind cancellation and will be subject to our applicable
Change of Mind Return Policy (section 12), including any applicable
shipping, handling, restocking or other charges. Any refund payable will be
processed in accordance with that policy.
Any shipping charges that may apply to your order will be made clear to you
during the check-out process on the Website.
Not all Product(s) are sent from the same warehouse so they may arrive at
your Selected XDS Retailer on different days. You will only be notified that
your goods are available for pick-up once all items in your order are
available to be collected.
Without limiting clause 4(c), XDS reserves the right to cancel a Click and
Collect order under reasonable circumstances, including but not limited to
closure of the Selected XDS Retailer or inability of the Selected XDS
Retailer to receive your order. If we cancel your order, we will notify you
and provide you with a refund for any amounts you have paid in respect of
such Product(s).
11. Your rights under the Australian Consumer Law
Our goods come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under the Australian
Consumer Law. You are entitled to a replacement or refund for a major
failure and for compensation for any other reasonably foreseeable loss or
damage. You are also entitled to have the goods repaired or replaced if the
goods fail to be of acceptable quality and the failure does not amount to a
major failure.
Nothing in these terms and conditions operates to exclude, restrict or
modify the operation of any provision of the Australian Consumer Law (being
Schedule 2 to the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth)).
12. Return policy
12.1 Change of mind return policy
The Change of Mind Return Policy below only applies to purchases made
through our Website(s). If you have purchased one of our product(s) through
a store and would like to return it, please contact our customer service
team. If you wish to make a warranty claim in relation to any products,
please refer to section 14 on 'Warranties' below.
XDS's Change of Mind Return Policy applies in addition to, and does not
exclude, restrict or modify your rights under the consumer guarantee
provisions of the Australian Consumer Law (see section 11 above for more
information on your consumer law rights).
A change of mind cancellation is only available where the Product has been
ordered but has not yet been collected by or delivered to the customer. Once
the Product has been collected, delivered or otherwise transferred into the
customer's possession, it is no longer eligible for return or refund due to
change of mind. Any rights or remedies available under the Australian
Consumer Law are not affected by this clause.
12.2 Returns due to error by XDS
In circumstances where XDS makes an error in the fulfilment of your order,
you may return the Product(s) for a full refund of the purchase price and
any applicable delivery charges. The 30-day time limit does not apply for
returns under this clause.
12.3 Returns process
Returns will not be accepted without a completed Returns form. Please ensure
your original Order Confirmation number is included which can be found in
your Order confirmation email.
Returns of Product(s) other than bicycles: please ensure the Returns Form is
attached or enclosed with the goods you are returning. Any merchandise that
shows signs of use (wear, dirt, smell, scuffing, mounting, installation,
etc.) cannot be returned under XDS's Change of Mind Return Policy. This
includes any items that have been "tested out". Items for which the
packaging has been destroyed are not returnable. Assuming the returned goods
meet the above, XDS will begin the refund process. Nothing in this clause
limits the rights you have under the Australian Consumer Law.
Please ensure returned goods are adequately packaged to avoid damage in
transit. We strongly recommend that all returned goods are sent with a
trackable & insured service. We cannot take responsibility for items
that are damaged or lost in transit.
Returns of bicycles: for all bicycle returns, please bring your order, with
proof of purchase, to your Selected XDS Retailer (the retailer who assembled
and provided you with your bike via Click and Collect). For returns under
our Change of Mind Policy, you may be eligible for a full refund of the
purchase price (not including initial shipping and handling or destination
fee charges), so long as the bicycle is in a like-new condition and
undamaged.
Unless otherwise noted, the refund will be for the full value of the
returned items. For change of mind returns, delivery fees or Click and
Collect charges (if applicable) will not be refunded, subject to your rights
under Australian Consumer Law. Credit for the returned items is applied to
the payment method that was used to make the original purchase. Returns will
be inspected by XDS within 72 hours of receipt and depending on the
financial institution it may take an additional 2-10 business days before a
credit is processed and visible in your account.
Please note: our authorised XDS retailers cannot process the refund for you
with respect to purchases made on our Website(s). Refunds must be processed
by XDS Head Office via the same method used for your original purchase.
13. Limits of responsibility
Without excluding, restricting or modifying any rights or remedies to which
you may be entitled under the Australian Consumer Law (as summarised in
'Your rights under the Australian Consumer Law' above), we accept no
responsibility for user-initiated damage and/or loss of parts incurred
during the operation or use of product(s).
14. Warranties
For all manufacturer warranty claims please take your Product: (i) to your
local authorised XDS retailer, for orders which were delivered directly to
you; or (ii) to your Selected XDS Retailer, for orders that were Click and
Collect orders. Please bring your original "Order Confirmation" email as
your proof of purchase. For more information on the warranty process please
see our Warranty Policy.
Our goods come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under the Australian
Consumer Law. You are entitled to a replacement or refund for a major
failure and for compensation for any other reasonably foreseeable loss or
damage. You are also entitled to have the goods repaired or replaced if the
goods fail to be of acceptable quality and the failure does not amount to a
major failure.
No XDS warranty, and nothing in these terms and conditions, operates to
exclude, restrict or modify the operation of any provision of the Australian
Consumer Law (being Schedule 2 to the Competition and Consumer Act 2010
(Cth)), including the consumer guarantees. In some circumstances your rights
under your consumer guarantees may be greater than your rights under the
applicable XDS warranty, in which case XDS will always honour your rights
under the consumer guarantees.
