Return & Refund Policy
Nifty Goods – South Africa
At Nifty Goods, we are committed to providing quality, practical products and excellent customer service. We carefully handle and dispatch our orders to ensure customers receive their purchases in good condition.
Please read our Return & Refund Policy before making a purchase.
1. Damaged, Defective or Incorrect Products
If you receive a product that is damaged, defective or different from what you ordered, please contact us at niftygoods.sa@gmail.com as soon as possible.
Please provide:
-
Your order number
-
A description of the issue
-
Clear photographs of the product and packaging, where possible
We will review the information and assist with an appropriate resolution.
In accordance with the South African Consumer Protection Act, qualifying defective products may be returned within six months of delivery, with the customer entitled to the applicable statutory remedies, including repair, replacement or refund.
Where a return qualifies under these statutory protections, Nifty Goods will cover the necessary return courier costs.
2. Change-of-Mind Returns
Nifty Goods does not offer voluntary change-of-mind returns beyond those required by applicable South African consumer protection legislation.
Where the Electronic Communications and Transactions Act applies, customers have the right to cancel eligible online purchases within seven calendar days of receiving the goods, without providing a reason.
In these circumstances, customers are responsible for the direct cost of returning the goods. Refunds will be processed within the period prescribed by law.
We request that returned products be handled with reasonable care and, wherever reasonably possible, returned with their original packaging.
Nothing in this section limits customers' statutory cancellation rights.
3. Order Cancellations
If you wish to cancel an order before it has been dispatched, please contact us as soon as possible at niftygoods.sa@gmail.com.
We will assist with cancellation wherever possible.
If an order has already been dispatched, the applicable statutory cancellation and return provisions will apply.
4. Refund Processing
Where a refund is approved or required by law, it will be processed through the original payment method wherever supported by the payment provider.
Processing times may vary depending on the bank or payment service provider.
All refunds will be handled within the timeframes required by applicable South African legislation.

Exchanges or replacements may be arranged where:
-
An incorrect product was supplied.

A product is defective and qualifies for a statutory remedy.
Any replacement is subject to product availability and the customer's applicable legal rights.
6. Return Shipping
For eligible statutory cooling-off cancellations, the customer is responsible for the direct cost of returning the product.
