Oz Goods Depot in liquidation

APH & CO Pty Ltd, the company behind online budget retailer Oz Goods Depot, has entered liquidation after a short-lived e-commerce run that ended with cancelled customer orders, mounting refund complaints and a secured creditor enforcement step.

Anthony Warner of CRS Insolvency Services was appointed liquidator on 15 May 2026, after members resolved that the company be wound up.

The liquidation follows the abrupt closure of the retailer’s online operations. Oz Goods Depot told customers on its website that it had ceased trading, that all unshipped and unfulfilled orders would be cancelled, and that customer support inboxes were no longer being actively monitored. Customers with unresolved orders, refunds, returns or other matters were directed to contact their bank or payment provider first, with any remaining claims to be lodged with the liquidator.

The case has quickly moved beyond a straightforward members’ winding up. Warner told SmartCompany that secured creditor Bizcap appointed Andrew Quinn of Mackay Goodwin as receiver on 18 May 2026, giving the receiver control of the company’s assets. Oz Goods Depot reportedly owes approximately $2.5 million to creditors, with major creditors said to include Meta Platforms, Microsoft Advertising, New Aim / Dropshipzone and Shopify Capital.

Oz Goods Depot marketed itself as an Australian online store for home appliances, furniture, lifestyle products and other budget goods. The company was first registered in July 2022, while the Oz Goods Depot brand was registered in September 2024, with the business model reportedly built around discounted, drop-shipped or factory-direct products. The company said it had shipped more than 25,000 orders to customers across Australia before shutting down.

The liquidation has left customers in an unsecured creditor position for unfulfilled orders unless they can obtain chargebacks or refunds through payment providers. Warner has said the number of affected customers is not yet clear, while the company’s public notice to customers stated that the liquidator cannot issue refunds directly and that lodging a claim only records the customer’s debt in the liquidation.
