Buy Local

Complying with Australian Standards

Buying from a Nikon Australia Authorised Reseller means that your product will be all set up and ready to be used – with manuals, menus and chargers all suited to be used in the Australian market.

Buying through a Nikon Australia Authorised Reseller also ensures your new product complies with Australian legislation in addition to meeting the Government’s C-Tick standard for electrical operation. All Nikon products made for Australia will carry the C-Tick number N16184.

Protection under law

Goods purchased from an overseas entity may not be covered under the rights you are entitled to under Australian law. The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) warn that “when dealing with internationally based companies, you may not be protected by Australian law.”

Only by purchasing from an Australian company are you entitled to your rights for a refund or repair if your product arrives damaged or faulty.

No hidden taxes

When a ‘grey’ online source advertises goods for sale it might not be clear what your tax implications are. GST, for example, won’t be included in the price you pay – but when the product arrives in Australia you may still have to pay GST before customs will release the goods.
