Lucky Lasts
If we are down to our last unit of an item, it may or may not have been opened and displayed behind glass in our Geelong Supastore. We will let you know if this is the case and will ascertain if the piece is in factory mint condition. If it is, we will return it’s original factory shipper and send it out to you.
However, if we discover any defect or damage, we will contact you first before sending it out via phone or email and let you know the exact condition of the goods. We may also follow up with a photo. It is then at Popcultcha’s discretion to offer you, the customer, a discounted deal on the piece to compensate for any wear and tear. This is negotiated only when this rare occurrence arises and is treated on a case-by-case basis.
As the terms and conditions of sale for a lucky last item include the customer agreeing to the current condition of the product they will not be issued a refund or exchange barring any damage to the product received that had not been communicated by Popcultcha.
