Thank you for your purchase. We hope you are happy with your purchase. However, if you are not completely satisfied with your purchase, you may return it to us for a refund, store credit, or an exchange for other services.

This policy is an addendum to the aforementioned Legal Terms.

Returns

We provide the following services that can be returned:

Glasshouses and accessories

Glasshouses and accessories are supplied by Longbush Cottage, per the buyer's confirmation, and orders can only be returned with our express approval and are generally considered account credits.

  • Requests to return delivered goods must be submitted within 21 days from the date of supply.
  • Where goods are accepted for credit, they must be delivered at the buyer"s expense to the seller"s storage location in original condition and packaging.
  • The buyer is responsible for arranging the glasshouse"s disassembly, packaging, and shipping to the storage location, including all associated costs. The glasshouse will be considered used, i.e. not new, if the glasshouse requires disassembly.
  • The seller reserves the right to levy a restocking fee against any returns they may agree to accept. Such fees may be up to 40% of the invoiced price and charged at our discretion.

The restocking fee provides for the subsequent storage of the glasshouse, the initial import shipping charges and fees, and any other costs associated with advertising and re-selling the glasshouse to a new customer.

We do not have to give a refund for returned glasshouses if you have changed your mind about a purchase; so please choose carefully. If the glasshouse you bought is damaged at delivery, we will provide a remedy as required by the Consumer Guarantees Act.

Returns process

To return a glasshouse, please email us at [email protected] to obtain a Return Merchandise Authorisation ("RMA") number. After receiving an RMA number, we will contact you to advise of the storage location to which you will ship the glasshouse or accessories. Our support in returning the glasshouse is limited to third-party support only. We will provide support to our approved disassembler and our shipping company. We will give you details of who to contact as part of the RMA process.

Refunds

After receiving your return request and, where applicable, inspecting the condition of your item, we will process your return, refund, credit, or exchange as set out in the returns section.

Please allow at least fourteen (14) days from receiving your item to process your return, refund, credit or exchange. Refunds may take 1-2 billing cycles to appear on your statement, depending on your payment method and our banking systems. We will notify you by email when your return has been processed.

Cancellations

Unless not covered by the previous terms and conditions, this part primarily provides our terms for cancelling orders and purchasing glasshouses and accessories. We manufacture glasshouses and accessories to order in France and import them to New Zealand.

If you cancel your order within fourteen (14) days of your first payment instalment, we will endeavour to cancel the production of your order. Any cancellation charges we incur will be on-charged to you at our current NZD/EUR exchange rate, plus a 10% convenience fee. Please see our Payments Policy for the current rate.

If you cancel your order after fourteen days and before the items are delivered, we will charge you for all expenses, including restocking fees. We advise you to discuss all your requirements with us directly before making a payment and commitment to purchase.
