What is Extratec?

Whilst measures are in place to ensure 100% accuracy, it is important to note this cannot be guaranteed, nor is it implied to be error free. All online stock indications should be used as a guide only, this applies to both in-store purchases and online orders. It is advised that you call 1800 469 928 before journeying into a store to ensure the stock is on hand!
