1. TUXMATE AS A VENUE

TuxMate acts as a venue to allow users who comply with TuxMate's policies to offer and rent goods. TuxMate is not directly involved in the transaction between owners and customers.

7. DRY CLEANING

All suits must be dry cleaned before return, unless otherwise stated by the individual owner. Should an item fail to be appropriately cleaned before return, as stated by the owner, the owner has the right to withhold a partial, if not the entire amount of the bond, to cover the costs of cleaning. The owner may also request further compensation to the value of the cost of the owner bearing the task of cleaning the garment themselves.

8. REFUNDS

If a customer agrees to hire an item, money is exchanged, and then the customer later decides they do not wish to hire the item, the owner has no obligation to return the hire price, especially in scenarios where the suit has already been given to the customer and including situations where the garment does not fit, or does not suit the rentee. This is a condition, as often clients are turned down when the item is being rented out at the time, and we can therefore not turn down customers if the suit has not already been definitely hired out. If you are unsure whether you are interested in the garment, please ask the owner if they will allow you to organise a try on. If a try on is arranged, a customer is entitled to a refund for any reason, providing the item is not accepted at the try on. For example, if a customer arranges a try on with the owner, pays for the item prior to the try on and then tries it on and does not like it, the customer is entitled to a refund. The try on must be arranged prior to payment being made. If the customer tries on the item, confirms rental and pays for the item after the try on, the customer is not eligible for a refund after this acceptance. A change of mind is allowed at least 2 weeks prior to the event, so if the money has already been exchanged, and there is a change of mind 15 days out from the event taking place, the suit owner is obligated to refund the full hire price and bond to the customer, unless the owner confirmed the payment was non-refundable prior to receiving the payment. However, in the situation where an item is not available to the customer at the time of their event, the customer is expected to be refunded all fees paid. This is inclusive of situations where the garment has been delayed in the post, even if the owner posted the item in advance and the item was unexpectedly delayed. Unfortunately, an owner is required to bear the burden of this situation, even if it is outside of their control. We recommend owners allow for delay's when considering postage. However, if the owner contacts the customer regarding postage of the item in reasonable time, and the customer does not reply to the owner until it is too late to post the garment, or the garment arrives late due to it being posted late as the customer did not respond in time, this is the liability of the customer. E.g., if an owner contacts a customer stating they can post tomorrow, but the customer does not confirm their shipping details until two days later, and the item is posted then and arrives a day late, this is the customer's fault, as the owner attempted to post it in a reasonable time frame for the item to arrive. If the customer further responds too late for postage, after paying a non-refundable deposit, the deposit is not refundable if the item does not arrive or while not arrive in time to the customer, provided the owner contacted them to post the garment within an appropriate time frame . Please be advised that refunds for item's listed on our website are not available at any time, including if the customer wishes to remove their listing on our page, remove an additional feature added to their listing, or change their listing. Should a customer list an item on our site, with or without additional advertisement features, including "highlighted" or "featured" add on’s, they will be subject to the cost of this, and will not be entitled to any refund of any kind, unless so deemed by TuxMate. Should a customer include an additional advertisement feature on our site, and wish to remove it, they can do so, but will not receive a refund for the additional amount paid for this feature. Please feel free to ask our team what the additional advertisement features are, prior to selecting them. Please note, an owner has the right to create their own terms and conditions with regards to refunds. Owner's may state that payment is 'non-refundable'. In this situation, refunds are not eligible even if a change of mind has occurred outside the two-week period.

9. WEARING OF A HIRED ITEM

A customer must pay for the possession and responsibility of an item, regardless of whether they end up wearing it or not. However, an item is rented out for ONE event only, and to ONE person only, unless otherwise arranged with the owner. A suit that is in the possession of a customer for a weekend cannot be lent to their friend, and worn on two occasions, even if worn by the same person, unless this is agreed by the owner. This is because as a suit is worn, it depreciates in value and faces the risk of damage and deterioration. Therefore, the hire price covers the cost of one occasion, day or event only. If a customer damages an item beyond repair, deeming the item 'unwearable', the owner may request the customer pay for the damages at any value that is less than or equal to the RRP of the garment minus the already paid for hire fee and bond. If the owner insists on damages that equal the RRP of the item (including any already paid fees such as hire fee and bond), the customer has the right to ask for ownership over the property being disputed. If minor stains or damages are caused to the garment, decreasing it's value but allowing it to still be wearable, the owner has the right to refuse the return of the bond, or ask for minor compensation. If a dispute has arisen between the owner and the customer over the damages, i.e. whether or not the damages deem the item 'unwearable', please contact TuxMate. 'Unwearable': in all circumstances refers to an item that would not be worn by any reasonable person because of damages to it.

10. RETURN OF AN ITEM

It is the customer’s responsibility to contact the owner of the item, regarding it’s return. Items must be either dropped back or posted back to the owner by the date stated unless other arrangements are agreed upon. Please obtain approval from the owner prior to posting an item. If no return date is stated, customers with items which are not returned within one week of the date of wear, are no longer entitled to receive their bond upon return, unless the owner has agreed to a date of return later than one week. If an item is returned later than one week, or the agreed date, an owner has the right to ask for further compensation. For example, if an item is returned late, and a future rental is cancelled because of this, the customer may be required to compensate the owner for this forgone hire fee. If an item is not returned at all, the customer who liaised with the owner and had possession of the item is liable to provide compensation to the owner. This compensation will be to any value less than, or equal to, the RRP of the item, minus any already paid fees (including hire fees and bonds, excluding postage costs). The owner will be allowed to dictate the price of the compensation, provided its value does not exceed the previously stated value. It is the sender's responsibility to provide the receiver with appropriate tracking when an item is being shipped. For example, if a customer returns an item via postage, and no tracking is provided, the customer will be liable for the garment should it not arrive. However, if the customer provides a valid and active tracking number (i.e. the tracking number shows information e.g. lodgement of parcel, that can be tracked by the post service) then they are not liable for the garment should not arrive. Please always provide tracking information when posting garments.

11. CONDITION OF AN ITEM

It is an owner’s responsibility to provide the customer with an item that is in wearable and undamaged condition. Small stains, that are hidden or barely noticeable, are accepted. However, please disclose any minor stains that are visible externally when worn (i.e. stains on the interior lining of the fabric that cannot be seen when worn do not need to be disclosed) to the customer before they hire the item. A customer has the right to refuse to wear an item, if a reasonable person, in this position, would also view the item as unwearable. In the scenario of a marked or damaged item, it must be immediately returned to the owner, and a full refund be issued. A customer must disclose the stains in question to the owner prior to the event date of the hire. If a customer reports stains after the event date, or wearing of the item, the owner cannot determine that the stains did not occur in the customer's possession. We expect a customer to dispute an item within 24 hours of receiving it. If a customer disputes an item but does not return it until after the hire date, and no graphics of the damage in question are provided prior to the event date, or at the time of the dispute being raised, the owner has the right to refuse rental to the customer. This is because the owner has not received proof of damage prior to the rental date or return of item prior to the rental date. In this situation, the owner has no way of determining that the item was not worn or that the damage did not occur in the customer's possession. If disputes between owner/customer occur, please send in a detailed complaint, along with photographic evidence to TuxMate AU, and we will determine whether the damage makes the item unwearable or not.

12. POSTAGE If an item is to be posted, please forward on a tracking number to the owner/customer. Please always include a return address of the item. This ensures that an item can be tracked, in the event it were to be lost in the mail. If an item does not arrive at it’s destination, and there were no tracking number given, the person who sent the item is responsible for the compensation of it. If an item is posted, a tracking number is provided and the item does not arrive at the destination, it is the sender's responsibility to lodge a missing parcel form with Australia Post and attempt to retrieve the item. If the item cannot be found, but the tracking number provided shows sufficient proof that the item was posted correctly by the customer, then the customer is not liable for the loss of the item, and this is now an issue with Australia Post. It is the receiver’s responsibility to provide the sender with an address that will result in safe delivery of the item if tracking is provided and the tracking is confirmed as delivered, the receiver is immediately responsible for the item. If the receiver cannot locate the parcel following delivery, it is the receiver’s liability to bear the loss of the item, as tracking states the item has been delivered.

13. TERMS OF THE BOND

If a bond has been used in the transaction, it must be returned on return of the item if it is in the same condition. If it is not, not all the bond may be returned. Bonds which have not be claimed after 2 weeks (14 days) after the suit owner has attempted to return it, asked for bank details etc), and the hirer has not gotten back to them, the bond cannot be claimed. Please make sure you provide your suit hirer with the appropriate bank details or arrangements when they ask. Do not expect them to chase you up for them.

14. LIABILITY
