Apple warranty may not be covered in Australia, as it's from HK..
http://www.apple.com/legal/warranty/products/iphone-english-…
Apple may restrict warranty service for iPhone and iPad to the country where Apple or its Authorized Distributors originally sold the device.
Please retract that the warranty is covered by Apple, as it's not guaranteed.
Your website mentions that it's imported from your HK business and these conditions apply to the warranty:
Import Direct Warranty Information (Unique Mobiles Direct Ltd - HK)
Standard:

DOA replacement within the first 48 hours of delivery.
Repair Guarantee: within 30 days, generally 7 days, and replacement phone or store credit offered if unable to repair within guaranteed timeframe.
Equivalent to manufacturer's warranty terms and coverage.
Repair centres located in most capital cities, or return to our support office in Brisbane.

To clear things up for you - All Apple products for sale online at Unique Mobiles are covered by Apple Warranty. We have had no issues with this in the past and should any customer encounter a problem Unique Mobiles would always back up the warranty.
Thankyou

If this isn't an A-tick product, then you can't assume Apple will take responsibility for a product that was imported.
I'll add some emphasis here to the quote you have provided from the Apple Warranty document:
Apple may restrict warranty service for iPhone and iPad to the country where Apple or its Authorized Distributors originally sold the device
The emphasis here being on the word MAY. I would assume this is on a somewhat case by case basis. I don't think your neg vote here is valid; regardless you are getting warranty. If something did go wrong within 12 months, first you try Apple for warranty service, and if they wont help you then you go to Unique Mobiles for help. You aren't going to know for certain until you give it a go; and thats if something even goes wrong at all…
agree with ^
unless someone with grey import can share their story of claiming warranty in australia and got rejected, i think apple is just too rich to reject a claim for its flagship product. they just more care about name reputation than a mere $300 (their cost) maybe less
Is there a tax invoice? Can I claim TRS?
comeon mate… its grey import, no gst paid so no trs
So we should buy this phone not knowing whether warranty will be covered or not or by whom based on one word? Lol if it was $100 cheaper yerh sure but it isnt so no thanks…
iPhone 5S or iPhone 6 coming?
Wow how clever, and then after the 5S/6 there will be the 7/8, and how many Galaxy's will pass in between that time.
Now instead of the ? a date would be of interest otherwise it smells of trolling.
I can confirm that there is no in-warranty repair/replacement, and no out of warranty replacement, from Apple Australia, for Hong Kong sourced iPhones.
The IMEI number reveals from which market the iPhone came.
Apple Australia will attempt to assist with any problem, but that is all.
EDIT:
Current iP5 16GB HK Apple Store price is HK$5,588 = A$712
if you are the same a3australia on whirlpool, i 100% believe you mate.
wow.. will surely warn all my friends to buy iphone locally then.
re hk price, hmm wonder how uniqemob can sell cheaper than hk price.
Cheaper than apple store price, not cost price.
Asside from the typical apple gaol.
