Few furniture and homeware businesses expect a customer to return a custom lounge suite six months later, citing a warranty clause you didn’t realise was in your own terms. In New Zealand, consumer guarantees are non-negotiable, and the Commerce Commission keeps a close eye on how you advertise, bundle, and sell your products. Overlooking the fine print in your Business Terms & Conditions or neglecting to set clear rules for your Bundled Products Terms & Conditions can leave you exposed to costly disputes or compliance headaches.
