5. Delivery and Fulfilment

Delivery Service Commitment:

While delivery dates are estimates unless expressly guaranteed, Sitex Direct aims to provide a reliable and transparent delivery experience across all order types.

Delivery options, charges and estimated lead times may vary depending on product availability, warehouse location, marketplace seller, supplier-direct fulfilment, courier restrictions, product size, product weight, hazardous classification or delivery postcode.

Orders containing products from multiple suppliers, sellers or warehouses may arrive in separate consignments. Some products may be dispatched directly by suppliers, distributors, manufacturers or approved marketplace sellers.

6. Returns, Refunds and Faulty Goods

Returns approach: Sitex Direct aims to provide a fair and transparent returns process for both consumers and business customers, with clear guidance provided before and after purchase where applicable.

Returns and refunds are handled according to the customer type, product type, seller type, return reason, product condition and applicable legal rights. Consumers may have statutory cancellation rights for many online purchases, subject to legal exceptions.

If an item arrives faulty, damaged, incorrect or incomplete, customers should contact support as soon as possible and provide photographs or supporting evidence where available.
