Such early cancellations can only be effected via e-mail to refunds@impero.co.za.

If timeously cancelled as aforesaid, you will be fully refunded in respect of such cancelled sale (including delivery charges), without any administrative or other charges being payable; provided that, should a sale only be partially cancelled and delivery charges as re-calculated on the value of the revised order exceed the delivery charges as calculated on the original order, you shall be liable for the amount of such excess delivery charges.

Defective, damaged, or unsuitable products

If, within 3 months after delivery of a product to you, you find that the product is defective/faulty, unsuitable for the purpose for which it was indicated in the product description (or otherwise generally intended), not legal, or not reasonably durable (based on circumstances and product type) (hereinafter referred to as being "Defective") and you arrange to return such product to Impero Consluting for inspection in the manner described in the "Arranging Returns" section below (being the ONLY manner in which returns will be accepted). If the product is found to be defective, your are entitled to either have the product repaired, replaced or returned to Impero Consulting for a full refund. Should the product be found to be not defective, you will be held responsible for all costs incurred by Impero Consulting to determine that the problem is not defective, and to return the product to you.

A product is NOT defective when:

  • Faults occur resulting from normal wear and tear;
  • Where you, or someone unauthorised to do so by Impero Consulting, has altered or damaged the product. IMPORTANT: you should refuse to accept delivery of any product which is visibly damaged, and if you only discover the damage after the courier has left, then you must report it to Impero Consulting as soon as possible and within 48 hours. If only reported after 48 hours, it is reasonable for Impero Consulting or its suppliers to determine that the damage was caused post delivery;
  • Encoding on DVDs not being compliant with your zone (save where the encoding was incorrectly specified in the relevant product description);
  • Electronic hardware or software (including computer games) purchased by you which are not compatible with your operating system and/or existing hardware.
