Computer Warranties

Our refurbished computers come with a 90-day warranty.  Once the 90-day warranty has expired, you have the option to buy a 12-month extended warranty for $20.

WHAT WE COVER
The warranty will cover any hardware failure that occurs (i.e. CD/DVD drive stops functioning, hard drive fails, fan breaks, etc.).  If we can’t fix the hardware part, we will replace it.  If we can’t replace or fix the part, we will replace the system.

WHAT WE DON’T COVER
The warranty does not cover any software repairs including virus removal, the monitor, physical damage to the hardware (i.e. damaged keyboard, mouse, tower, etc.), lack of maintenance, tampering, exposure to poor conditions and servicing done by yourself or others.

If your computer needs any type of software repair (i.e. virus removal, missing icons, software reinstallation, etc.) we will charge a flat fee of $25.

Note: we will NOT fix your computer if you get viruses from illegal activities (i.e. illegal downloading) or visiting adult websites.
