Be aware of the sales process of this Auckland IT online biz
I purchased online a used Samsung Rugged Tab from SmartGear NZ (Auckland). On receiving it I discovered it is not the 'Rugged' version (the Rugged version has a special shockproof outer case).
In brief, (detail can be read at drive.google.com... ),
Smart Gear tried to squirm out of their obligations by claiming the image on their website showed a non-Rugged TAB and thus that was delivered.
Unfortunately for SmartGear, every other aspect of their online description specified a Rugged TAB including their link to Samsung website. After some days of jostling I advised them I would be taking the case to The Commerce Commission, Consumer and FairGo. They then conceded to having it returned and refunded.
A week after they received it they still had not refunded and missed a deadline I gave them. I then told SmartGear that I would be advising the previous mentioned organisations of SmartGear's reluctance to refund. A few hours later I was told it had been paid.
So watch this space and in the meantime put SmartGear NZ on your watch lists. btw I subsequently found another online supplier in Elive NZ (elive.co.nz) - very helpful, efficient and I quickly had a Samsung Rugged TAB delivered. I have also found PB Tech to be a good IT supplier both in shop and online. (btw I have an IT background).
