Title to software remains with the licensor of the software. Your use of software is subject to license agreements applicable to the software. You must notify Allied of missing or damaged items in your order within five (5) days after you receive your product.
Cancellation:
Upon receiving an order, we immediately begin processing the order. As every PC we sell is customisable (or made-to-order), this includes ordering stock, committing staffing resources, administrative work, and other related procedures, all of which represent a cost to our business. Therefore once an order is placed we cannot accept a cancellation and offer a full refund, be it for change of mind or any other reason, without cost.
Cancellations can be handled in two ways:
1) Order cancelled and refund issued, minus a 25% restocking fee.
2) Order cancelled and a credit for the full amount provided, in the form of a coupon code to use on our website at any other time. This can be used in one full amount or multiple partial amounts.
We strongly recommend you consider this cancellation policy carefully before finalising your purchase, as it is not negotiable.
Returns:
Our Game As One 30-Day Satisfaction Guarantee entitles a customer to return any item purchased from us within 30 days of receiving the item, for a full refund of the purchase price, providing the item is returned to us in its original packaging and in a reasonable and operable state, with no physical damage. To initiate a refund under our Game As One 30-Day Satisfaction Guarantee, customers must email [email protected] and receive approval for the return, prior to sending it. Sending it without receiving this approval may result in a delay in processing or forfeiture of a portion or all of the refund amount.
This refund does not include the shipping fee paid for the item when dispatched from us, and does not include return postage to us. Upon receiving confirmation of the return of the items from us, customers must either arrange their own postage of the goods back to us, or request a shipping label from us. The value of this shipping label will be deducted from the refund amount for the goods’ purchase.
For PCs, we will provide instructions on how to safely package the item for transit. If the item is sent back to us with inadequate packaging or packaging that does not follow our instructions, and subsequently suffers external or internal component damage, the value of those components may be deducted from the refund amount. This deduction may total the entire value of the PC, resulting in a net zero refund being payable.
We do not normally give refunds or exchanges if you already knew of a fault in a product or we specifically advised you of a fault in a product, damage a product after purchase due to alterations not performed by us, damage the product due to unusual or non-recommended use, damage the product by any means where the damage is outside of our control, or when no proof of purchase is provided.
To request/submit a Refund, Return, Warranty, & Consumer Guarantee Claim, please email us at [email protected]. Please note, that if the product is deemed NO FAULT FOUND for any warranty or consumer guarantee claim, a service fee up to $50 with any additional shipping charges may be applied; and any inspection or rejection fees by the relevant authorised service centre may also be applied. If a product is found to have been supplied to you in full compliance of Australian Consumer Law, we may require you to pay all costs associated with returning the item to you.
