We are aware that sometimes through the internet it can be difficult to choose items and all online sales are subject to our conditions. When you buy, please choose carefully.
We do not refund because you simply changed your mind, or didn’t do the proper research for your motorcycle, unless this was explicitly a condition of the sale or included in advertising material. Remember to always keep your receipt as proof of purchase.
Suncity Motorcycles must be informed within 7 days of when you received your item according to the Auspost tracking site, that you intend to return items. Each case is assessed via case-by-case basis. Do not return items without speaking to a member of our team first, as this will void all refunds.

All orders placed before or after sales periods are final and will not be discounted.
My order is gone to back order, now what?
Sometimes, our stock levels maybe out or we over sell on parts. If your item has gone to back order, and will take longer to arrive, a member from our team will be in touch with you with an ETA date. However, once we have placed an order for you, we cannot cancel the order, or return the item to the supplier.

If you were charged freight on your original order, it is not part of the Credit policy.
It is the purchaser’s responsibility to organise their return of the product in a safe and well packed manner. If we receive a parcel that hasn’t been packaged correctly and therefore “damaged in transit”, this will void any refund/exchange. Return costs fall into the purchaser’s responsibility.

My order is taking to long to arrive or Lost in Transit.
Unfortunately once we hand your order over to Auspost, there isn't much we can do. If your item is taking longer than expected to arrive our first recommendation is to check the tracking and see where it is being scanned along the way, also check if its in the Auspost time frame for arrivals. If your tracking says that the item appears to be late, we recommend contacting Auspost directly. They will be able to search for your item, and see where it is. If Auspost deems your item to be Lost in Transit they will be able to assist you in claiming compensation for your missing parcel.
