Terms of Sale
These terms apply to every purchase made on gamegumtree.com. They are written in plain English because we used to write rental agreements on the back of receipts and learned that nobody reads the long version. Please read this one anyway.
1.Who we are
- 1.1
Game gum tree is an online retailer of retro video games, consoles and accessories, operating from Pine Dr 486, Coleambally, New South Wales 2707, Australia. You can reach us at [email protected] or +61 2 6954 5949.
- 1.2
By placing an order you confirm that you are at least 18 years old, or that you are ordering with the consent of a parent or guardian.
2.Products and condition
- 2.1
Most items we sell are pre-owned. Each listing states the condition of the item, and the photos show the actual item or an identical one from the same batch.
- 2.2
We grade condition consistently across the catalogue:
- Sealed — factory sealed, never opened.
- Complete in box — game or console with its original box and manual.
- Boxed — original box present, manual or inserts may be missing.
- Loose — the cartridge, disc or console only.
- 2.3
Every game and console is tested on real hardware before listing. Reproductions, if we ever stock them, are always labelled as such.
3.Prices and payment
- 3.1
All prices are shown in Australian dollars (AUD) and include GST where applicable. Shipping costs are shown at checkout before you place your order.
- 3.2
We accept Visa, Mastercard, PayPal and Apple Pay. Payment is taken when your order is placed.
- 3.3
If an item is listed at an obviously incorrect price because of a technical error, we will contact you before dispatch and you may cancel for a full refund.
4.Orders and acceptance
- 4.1
Your order is an offer to buy. A contract is formed when we confirm dispatch by email. Until then we may decline an order, for example if stock has sold at the counter in the meantime — in that case you are refunded in full.
- 4.2
Each pre-owned item is usually one of a kind. If two customers order the last copy at the same moment, the first completed order wins.
5.Consumer guarantees
- 5.1
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 compensation for any other reasonably foreseeable loss or damage.
- 5.2
You are also entitled to have goods repaired or replaced if they fail to be of acceptable quality and the failure does not amount to a major failure. Normal wear consistent with the stated condition of a pre-owned item is not a failure.
- 5.3
In addition to your statutory rights, we give a 90-day working guarantee on every console and electronic accessory we sell.
6.Liability
- 6.1
Nothing in these terms limits rights you have under the Australian Consumer Law. Otherwise, our liability for any order is limited to the price you paid for it.
- 6.2
We are not responsible for lost save games, high scores or friendships damaged during couch co-op.
7.Changes and governing law
- 7.1
We may update these terms from time to time. The version published on the day you place your order applies to that order.
- 7.2
These terms are governed by the laws of New South Wales, Australia.
