Making a claim

When you receive your order, you have 3 business days to start the claim process if you have any issues. This article explains the claims process for buyers.

1. Claim submitted

You have 3 days from the time of order delivery to raise a claim. This will start the claim process.

What you need to do

Once your claim is received, it will be assessed for validity. You will be asked for supporting information which must be provided within 48 hours of raising your claim. These may include:

  • Pictures
  • Videos
  • Further details

Warning: It is important that you do not alter or use the received device for anything other than condition testing (and must not exceed 1% of total usage for testing purposes) if you wish to raise a claim. Your claim will be void if the device is altered, used in a commercial setting or exceeds 1% total usage as part of testing.

 2. Investigation

Once the required information is received, an investigation process will begin to determine if your claim is valid. the following questions will be asked:

  • Cosmetic condition - is it cosmetically the same as shown in the condition report?
  • Functional condition - does it function the same as shown in the condition report?
  • Inclusions - is anything missing compared to what was shown in the condition report?

What you need to do

During this stage, you may need to provide further information if asked.

3. Outcome

Once the required information is received and compared against the condition report, your claim will either be successful or dismissed.

Your claim will be successful if any of the following are true:

  • Cosmetic condition is different to condition review
