Twice my package got lost
Twice my package got lost. Got sick of it not turning up and asked for a refund. I was refunded the same day.
Maybe they should be using a different freight company.

Quick resolution
During my research to find the most suitable Floor jack, I was surprised to find the exact device for a considerable price reduction using Sparesbox.
After receiving the product which was delivered in a timely manner, I noticed the load wheels where if fact out of round and loose on the axle.
I contacted Tina on the help line who was understanding, resolving the issue swiftly without fuss.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. I want to personally apologise for the frustration and disappointment this situation has caused you. It’s clear we’ve fallen short of your expectations, and I take full responsibility for ensuring we address this properly.
When you emailed us on Friday, our team was working through a higher volume that unusual post the Black Friday and Cyber Monday promotions. Hopefully you received my response from Friday which explained that your missing cabin filter was the result of an unusual error in our system. I want to assure you that this issue has been escalated to our IT and Development Team to prevent it from happening again. In the meantime, I’ve upgraded your shipping to express and prioritised your order with our eFulfillment Manager to ensure it is dispatched on Monday.
If there’s anything more I can do to assist, please don’t hesitate to reach out directly or reply to my earlier email.
Thank you for your patience and for giving us the opportunity to make this right.

FALSE AND MISLEADING ADVERTISING
FALSE AND MISLEADING ADVERTISING. I tried to buy a 4.5 kg Bucket of Max1 Tyre Balancing Beads advertised on the Sparesbox website at $81.71 including delivery. When I went to the check out there was an addition of $9.90 for delivery, making a total of $87.52. Sparesbox needs to be avoided at all costs and reported for fraud.
LYING TIME WASTERS. Sparesbox has been warned but continues falsely advertising. I tried to buy a 200G EB200GB Bag of Easy Balance Tyre Balancing Compound advertised on the Sparesbox website at $11.21 including delivery. When I went to the check out there was an addition of $9.90 for delivery, making a total of $20.54. This company is an insult to hard working Australian and needs to be deregistered and prohibited from trading online. Warning, do not waste your hard earned money, ordering from Sparesbox. It needs to be avoided and reported for fraud and their site closed down.
FRAUDULENTVONLINE SELLER!!! I tried to buy a packet of 6.1/2 Oz TL200 Tire Repair Balancing Compound advertised on the Sparesbox website at $11.21 including delivery.

Thank you for sharing your concerns. I’d like to provide some clarity about how our pricing and shipping policies work.
Product Pricing and Shipping Costs
Our products are listed without shipping costs included. Shipping charges are calculated and added during checkout based on your location. This approach allows us to provide accurate shipping rates tailored to each customer's address.
Free Shipping Policy
There is no general reference to free shipping on our website, except during specific promotions like our current Cyber Sale. As part of this promotion, orders over $99 qualify for free shipping. Unfortunately, the orders you referenced were below this threshold, which is why the standard shipping cost was applied.
Commitment to Transparency and Integrity
At Sparesbox, we operate with transparency and integrity. We do not engage in false or misleading advertising, and we take any such claims very seriously. I can also confirm that we have received no warnings or notices from any regulatory body regarding false advertising.
We appreciate your feedback and understand the importance of clear communication. If you have further questions or need assistance with future orders, please don’t hesitate to reach out to our customer service team.
Shocking customer service
Shocking customer service!
Asked for the status of an order, got sent a generic email response with no information.
6 business day delivery has turned into 12 business days so far...
Turns out they use Couriers Please. If I knew that, I would have shopped elsewhere.

Thank you for sharing your honest feedback, Warwick. I’m truly sorry for the frustration and inconvenience this delay has caused. I completely understand how disappointing it is when an order takes longer than expected to arrive, especially when clear communication is so important during these times.
We understand how important it is to receive your order quickly and so we worked hard to ensure your order was dispatched promptly, leaving our warehouse the next day. However, as this falls during the start of peak courier volume with retailers offering Black Friday promotions, I can see that delivery is taking longer than estimated. Given that it's been 10 days since you placed the order and it's beyond the initial delivery estimate, I’ve reached out to Couriers Please to determine when your order will be delivered. I’ll update you personally as soon as I have more information.
We take your concerns about communication seriously and will be reviewing this internally to ensure we’re better balancing speed with detailed, personalised updates for our customers. Your experience matters to us, and we’re committed to learning from this to improve going forward.
Thank you for your patience while we work to make this right.

Terrible Customer Support and Unreasonable Warranty Process
I purchased a Drivetech 4x4 semi-flexible solar panel from Sparesbox, expecting a quality product backed by decent customer service. After less than seven months, the panel's surface began to disintegrate from basic pressure washing—completely unacceptable for a 4WD product.
When I attempted to make a warranty claim, Sparesbox informed me that I would need to remove the permanently installed panel, buy another one at my own cost, install it, and then uninstall and return the replacement if the claim was approved. Despite providing clear photographic evidence of the damage, they repeatedly stated the supplier wouldn’t budge and refused to escalate the matter further.
It’s clear Sparesbox prioritizes following rigid processes over actually helping customers. The fact that their website doesn’t allow reviews says a lot. I won’t be purchasing from Sparesbox again.

Thank you for reaching out and sharing your feedback regarding your recent experience with our Drivetech 4x4 semi-flexible solar panel. I’m sorry to hear about the challenges you've encountered, and I truly understand how frustrating this situation must be for you. At Sparesbox, we aim to deliver high-quality products and a seamless customer experience, so it's disappointing to learn we’ve fallen short in meeting your expectations.
Regarding your warranty claim, I’d like to clarify that in order for us to process a warranty claim with the supplier, the panel does need to be returned for assessment. I completely understand how inconvenient this process may feel, especially given the permanent nature of your panel’s installation. However, this step is essential for initiating the evaluation required by the manufacturer.
Additionally, after reviewing your case and the nature of the damage, I wanted to provide some guidance on solar panel care to prevent issues in the future. Specifically, we strongly advise against using a pressure washer to clean solar panels. This is because:
Damage Risk: The high pressure can scratch, crack, or puncture the surface, impacting both the functionality and longevity of the panel.
Warranty Implications: Many manufacturers, including this supplier, caution against pressure washing as it can void the warranty.
Water Intrusion: High-pressure water may force moisture and debris into delicate wiring or electronics, potentially causing irreversible damage.
For routine cleaning, we recommend using a soft cloth or sponge with mild soapy water and gently rinsing with a low-pressure hose.
We’re here to support you through the warranty process as smoothly as possible. If you have any questions regarding the return or the warranty process, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us directly.
