All items are sold for in vitro use in a laboratory only and are not for human or animal use nor release into the environment. For imported biological products, Australian organisations must have an AQIS Registration Number for quarantine purposes (see your Purchasing Officer if in doubt).
Payment should be within 30 days of invoice. MasterCard and Visa payments welcome.
Online credit card payments are processed through the secure eWay payment gateway and will be charged in Australian (AUD) or New Zealand (NZD) currency depending on your location. The name that will appear on your statement will be Genesearch Pty Ltd.
All prices will have 10% GST added if you are an Australian customer or 15% GST if you are a New Zealand customer. Standard list prices shown do not include GST unless otherwise indicated.
Prices shown on this website are determined by your location and indicated in the top left corner of the ordering window. Pricing is shown in Australian or New Zealand currency (AUD or NZD) before GST. If you are not logged in, the prices shown are list prices. If you are logged in, the prices shown include your institute discount, but do not include any discounts that might apply to high value orders. For precise prices you need to log on and enter the items as an order along with any coupon: in that case all relevant discounts, specials etc. will be applied.
Please note that prices shown on this website are not an official quote and only the prices shown when you actually submit a web order are guaranteed. If you place an order later, prices might differ due to the total value of the order, pricelist changes or expiry of Specials. Special discounts can be negotiated for standing orders, prepaid orders or large purchase commitments. Some products may be excluded from our general discount policy or your general institutional discount. No automatic discounts apply to other products.
Please check our Promotions page to take advantage of current specials.
Contact us if you wish to order bulk quantities or special formulations. Note: prices and offers on external supplier websites generally do not apply here.
Please note that discounts and specials are not cumulative, and might not apply in all cases. For example, items on Special receive no additional discounts; customers who receive customer-specific discounts do not receive additional discounts for orders over $1,000; if you normally receive a discount, any higher discounts (e.g. Specials) are off the list price not your usual price; and discounts might not apply to products from all suppliers or even to all products from a normally discounted supplier. If in doubt please contact Genesearch (note that correct prices for your account are always shown for submitted web orders).
While all reasonable care is taken, we reserve the right to correct pricing errors (e.g. due to wrong information from our suppliers or database corruption) but will advise you if that happens.
We keep all commonly ordered items in stock in Australia. Each e•Freezer holds items commonly ordered at its location plus a selection of items commonly ordered nationwide.*
For items currently in stock, if your order reaches us by 11 am (AEST) Monday – Thursday, you should usually receive your item the next day within Australia and in days within New Zealand. This might not apply to all institutions or locations.
Delays may occur in these shipping times for a variety of reasons including the days we can ship to your location, public holidays etc; please contact us if you have any concerns.
Our online catalogue shows which items we currently have in stock and, if you are logged in as an e•Freezer smartcard holder, which ones are in your e•Freezer. Please note that these stocks are not assigned to you until you place an order so should be considered a guide only until you do.
For items not currently in stock:
Unless advised otherwise, we ship in-stock items immediately and backordered items as soon as possible. Freight and packing, where applicable, is charged only once per order.
You can cancel an order without penalty provided that:
We may accept cancellations without penalty in other cases as well, but we reserve the right to charge a restocking fee to recover our costs.
Note: Cancellations of items shipped directly by the supplier are conditional upon the supplier’s policy, over which we have no control.
Please note that items which are sold infrequently, are expensive and/or have short lifetimes might not be able to be cancelled once we have ordered them from our supplier; or if they are cancelled there might be a restocking fee of up to 50% of their list price.
Our online store flags such items when ordering.
Items you have purchased but not yet opened may be returned, by prior arrangement at your expense, for a full or partial credit within 3 days of receipt, provided that:
We reserve the right not to accept returns. In particular, please note that items which are sold infrequently, are expensive and/or have short lifetimes might not be able to be returned or there might be a restocking fee of up to 50% of their list price.
Note that the above does not apply to:
Shipping and handling charges may vary depending on destination, type of shipment (e.g. ambient, wet ice, dry ice or bulky) and the total value of your order. If your ordering department orders a large amount from us shipping might be free or discounted.
Our shipping conditions have been tested extensively, and are based on years of experience for the Australian climate and the delicate nature of the products we distribute.
Most products are shipped in wet ice, or a combination of wet ice and frozen gel packs, inside a specially designed polystyrene box, and cardboard outer for better insulation.
Products needing colder shipping are packaged in Dry Ice, in accordance with the current IATA Dangerous Goods Regulations, by appropriately qualified staff.
Products are warranted to meet or exceed the specifications on their enclosed data card. Warranties do not apply to products outside their warranty period or not used in the conditions specified by the manufacturer. For details of warranty policies visit the supplier website.
For the environmentally concerned, each box now includes a reply-paid sticker for returning the box to Genesearch for re-use. Simply follow the instructions on the sticker and pop the box in the mail. This service is provided to make it easy to recycle the boxes.
Sorry, Genesearch cannot give credit for returned boxes.
