Pricing, Availability, and Product Information
All prices quoted on the website are inclusive of GST but do not include delivery (only if marked “Free Shipping”) and are based on payment by either Cash, Credit Cards, PayPal, Zip Pay, or Direct Deposit.
Please be aware that if you are doing a direct deposit payment using internet banking from a different bank other than Commonwealth Bank, it may take up to 48 hours to show up in our account. We do not ship orders out until payment is fully confirmed to be ‘cleared’ funds in our account.
All products advertised do not include the cost for any installation or troubleshooting compatibility issues. If you require assistance on installation/troubleshooting, this will be charged at our standard labour charge of $95/hour.
• As errors and omissions may occur, pricing, product information, and availability are not final until confirmed by Videoguys Australia Pty Ltd staff either by email, phone, or in person.
• Price matching/discounting is only at Videoguys Australia Pty Ltd’s discretion. As other competitors may not offer the same exact product, have stock, or offer the same warranty and service support as we do.
• All prices are subject to change without notice. By placing the order, the customer has agreed to pay the prices as listed on the order form at the time the order was originally submitted. However, we reserve the right to increase/reduce the price for items that are not in stock (stock with order only status) at the time of ordering as final/latest pricing can only be confirmed at the time of purchase from our supplier. For all other items that are in stock or an order that is already completed, the price will remain as is, and we will not offer a rebate or reimbursement of price differences in this situation.
Although we do our best to keep our stock levels up on most items, we cannot guarantee availability on all items so we encourage a formal query to be made especially for ‘Urgent’ items prior to Ordering. Items in stock will be allocated and reserved only to customers with a formal purchase order or website order.
In the event you have an urgent need for a particular item, please call us before placing your order to verify if the item is in stock.
Rental/Lease Finance
What does Studio 19 Rentals do? We rent the things people love. Cameras, guitars, bikes, technology, and the list is growing. We understand being passionate about something. We understand why that’s such a driving force in people’s lives. In fact, this is how we still decide on our product lines. And it’s also what we offer. The chance to follow your passion. To create, learn, and play. To get inspired and inspire others. We help people get the gear they’ve been dreaming of every day and although you rent the goods, the experience, the creations, and the adventures are yours to keep.
Please Note: Videoguys Australia Pty Ltd does not sell items or imply items “subject to finance” before purchase. It is the buyer’s responsibility to arrange this prior to leaving a holding deposit on items. Videoguys Australia WILL NOT refund any deposits on reserved stock items after 14 days unless otherwise arranged.

(a) when you place an Order on the Videoguys Australia Website, you may also pay for Goods using:
(i) Afterpay (subject to Afterpay’s Terms of Service) or ZipPay (subject to the Zip Pay Terms & Conditions), provided that the amount you are paying for Goods (excluding delivery charges) is not less than $20 and not more than $3,000 (excluding delivery charges); or (ii) an interest-free plan available on the Videoguys Australia Website with a participating Latitude credit card (subject to the applicable conditions of use of your participating Latitude credit card), provided that the amount you are paying for Goods (excluding delivery charges) is $300 or more; or (b) when you place an Order on the Direct Website, you may also pay for Goods using Afterpay (subject to Afterpay’s Terms of Service) or ZipPay (subject to the Zip Pay Terms & Conditions), provided that the amount you are paying for Goods (excluding delivery charges) is not less than $20 and not more than $3,000.

If the name on the credit card/payment card/account does not match the name on the Order, Videoguys Australia may refuse to accept your order or ask you to provide additional information (for example, proof of identity documents) in accordance with its fraud detection processes. By providing your credit card/payment card/gift card or selecting one of the other available payment methods you authorize Videoguys Australia to deduct the price and the applicable Delivery Charge(s) from such card or payment methods.
7.7 Videoguys Australia reserves the right to change the payment methods that can be used for Orders at any time in its absolute discretion (including by temporarily making available additional payment methods from time to time on a trial basis).
7.8 Videoguys Australia may not be able to, or may decline to, accept payment from you by your nominated payment method:
(a) where our fraud detection systems detect possible irregularities;
(b) because your financial institution or other payment provider has declined payment;
(c) because your payment card has expired;
(d) where technical difficulties impact our ability to process payment; or
(e) in any other situation if Videoguys Australia believes, acting reasonably and in good faith, that this is necessary to protect you or Videoguys Australia from fraud or loss.
Where this is the case, Videoguys Australia reserves the right to cancel your Order and/or place your Order on hold and request you to provide additional information (for example, proof of identity documents) or arrange payment by another method.
7.9 When you submit an Order, Videoguys Australia may complete a pre-authorization of the full value of the Order. A pre-authorization is a practice of validating electronic transactions by holding the value of the Order unavailable until either the merchant charges the account or the transaction is canceled. If an Order is canceled (for example, because our fraud detection system has detected a possible irregularity), any pre-authorization may still appear in your account as a pending transaction for a period of time, which will vary depending on your financial institution (e.g. 7 to 30 days). After such time, the funds will become available again for you to use.
7.10 Goods that you have ordered will not be dispatched to you until your payment for the Goods has cleared. If your payment cannot be processed, your Order will be rejected and we will notify you by email.
8. Cancellation of Orders

(b) an event beyond Videoguys Australia’s control, such as storm, fire, flood, earthquake, terrorism, power failure, war, strike, pandemic, governmental action, or failure or problems with the internet or third-party computer systems, means that Videoguys Australia is unable to supply the Goods within a reasonable time;
(c) Goods or services ordered were subject to an accidental error on the Website, for example, in relation to a description, price, reward, or image;

(a) has breached a material term of this Agreement; or
(b) is not able to deliver your Order within a reasonable time of the estimated delivery time listed on the Website for the applicable Selected Delivery Option, other than a result of any delay for which you are wholly or partly responsible such as a failure to provide the correct delivery address or to pay for the Goods.
8.3 Where Videoguys Australia cancels your Order after acceptance it will send you an e-mail notifying you of cancellation.
8.4 In the event of Videoguys Australia or you canceling your Order after payment has been processed, Videoguys Australia will refund any money paid in respect of that Order. Section 15 of these Terms and Conditions sets out further information about refunds.
9. Availability of Goods/Refurbished stock
9.1 As Videoguys Australia is dependent upon its suppliers to provide stock, Videoguys Australia cannot guarantee availability at all times. You acknowledge and agree that, from time to time, certain Goods may be out of stock or unavailable. Videoguys Australia reserves the right to withdraw or suspend from sale any Goods displayed on the Website, either temporarily or permanently, at any time without notice to you.

If certain Goods in your Order are out of stock, the Selected Delivery Option will list different estimated delivery times for those out-of-stock Goods. Please note that the estimated delivery time for your Selected Delivery Option is an approximate delivery time only and is not a guaranteed delivery time for your Order.
10.2 Risk and title in Goods pass to you on the date and time of delivery of the Goods to the delivery address provided in your Order.
10.3 Goods will generally only be delivered to addresses within Australia. Videoguys Australia is unable to deliver to certain parts of Australia and where this is the case you will not be able to process your Order.

10.6 You must ensure that you provide a delivery address where someone will be available to receive the Goods at the time of delivery.

10.8 Delivery times for Goods will vary depending on your Selected Delivery Option, where the Goods are being delivered to, and the availability of stock. It is your responsibility to ensure that the delivery address you provide is accurate and that someone will be available at the address to receive the Goods. If an attempted delivery is unsuccessful and the carrier is unable to contact you or leave a card at the delivery address, the Goods will be returned to Videoguys Australia and you will be required to pay any additional delivery charges in order for your Goods to be redelivered.
10.9 If you order more than one item, Videoguys Australia may deliver each item separately, and you may receive more than one delivery. You may not cancel an Order if there is a delay in the delivery of only some of the items in your Order. Delivery charges are non-refundable, except where you are entitled to a refund under these Terms and Conditions.
