Refund Policy

If you suspect that the Goods are faulty and wish to return them you must contact us within 72 hours of discovering the fault and submit an RMA (Return Material Authorisation) request. We will examine the returned Product and if you are entitled, we will notify you of your options to either, repair, replace or refund via e-mail within a reasonable period of time. We will usually process your elected repair, replacement or refund as soon as possible and, in any case, within 30 days of the day you confirm whether you opt for repair or replacement, or within 14 days of the day you opt for a refund for the defective Product.

Except in the case of faulty or miss-described goods, if you do not return the goods as required, we may charge you a sum not exceeding the direct costs of recovering the goods. All original items delivered must be returned with the refund request. This includes but is not limited to welcome packs, software discs, cables, digital download codes such as games, chassis accessories and peripherals.

When you return goods using your own delivery method within the UK, where goods are found to be defective we will refund up to £10 of the cost incurred by you. This will only be refunded upon the receipt of proof of the carriage costs. If you decide to use your own courier, we will not be held liable for any damages not previously reported by the consumer. we will also not be responsible for chasing the courier for compensation for the damage caused. You will also be charged to replace any other damaged parts before the system is returned to you. If you do not pay these charges within 14 working days, the system will not be returned to you and you will be refunded the purchase cost, minus the cost to return the system to its "new condition", this includes depreciation in the value of the goods.

When returning goods under the 14 day cooling off period, if the goods are not in a resaleable condition or if the goods have been unnecessarily handled we reserve the right to offer only a partial refund.

For refunds, we will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than:
14 days after the day we receive back from you any goods supplied, or
(if earlier) 14 days after the day you provide evidence that you have returned the goods, or if there were no goods supplied, 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to cancel this contract.

01. In addition to any warranty that you may have purchased with your Goods, all Goods that we supply come with a 3 year warranty (Parts and labour included for the first 12 months. Labour costs for the remaining 24 months). This warranty does not affect your statutory rights as a consumer.

02. Goods found by us to be defective during the warranty period will be repaired or replaced with an item of an equal or better performance and equal or better value at the time a return material authorisation (“RMA”) is generated. All Products being returned under warranty must have been issued with a valid RMA number. Any goods received by us without a valid RMA number will be rejected and returned to sender.
