Terms of service

These terms apply when you use this website or buy from Dead Mentors Society ("we", "us"), a business based in Tasmania, Australia. By placing an order you agree to them. Nothing in these terms excludes, restricts or modifies any right or remedy you have under the Australian Consumer Law or any other law that can't be excluded.

1. What we sell

Memberships. An ongoing order for one book at a time, in the edition you choose (paperback or hardcover), posted at the pace you choose: every month, every two months or every three months. How billing, skipping, pausing, changing pace and cancelling work is set out in our cancellation policy.

Gift memberships. A prepaid run of 3, 6 or 12 books in paperback or hardcover, posted one a month to the person you name. Gifts don't renew.

2. The books

We send the books on our reading list in the order shown. You choose paperback or hardcover; we choose the publisher and translation. If a book is unavailable in your edition, or you've told us you've already read it, we'll send another book from the list instead, or the best available edition and a refund of any difference. We may update the reading list from time to time.

3. Prices and payment

All prices are in Australian dollars and include GST and postage within Australia. Payments are processed securely through Shopify. If we change the price of a membership, we'll give you at least 30 days' notice by email before the new price applies to you.

4. Orders

An order is accepted when we send you an order confirmation. We may decline or cancel an order, for example if a product is listed with an obvious pricing error or we can't deliver to the address. If we do, we'll refund anything you've paid.

5. Delivery

We post within Australia only. Dispatch and delivery details are in our shipping policy. Delivery times are estimates.

6. Refunds

See our refund policy.

7. Your account

You're responsible for keeping your account details and address up to date, and for keeping your login secure.

8. Our content

9. Things outside our control

We're not responsible for delays caused by things outside our reasonable control, such as postal delays, severe weather or supplier shortages. This doesn't limit any rights you have under the Australian Consumer Law.
