PC Warranty
-
At Ginger6, we only offer the best quality goods and services, the highest craftsmanship and the up-most attention to detail on every system we develop. Unfortunately, things can go wrong, and we know the hassle and costs involved when one of the components becomes faulty. A major nuisance can be an intermittent fault that occurs infrequently and can cost a lot of money in terms of labour hours to diagnose and remedy. Thats why we offer an unbeatable warranty that will go beyond our customers expectations.
Before being dispatched, your PC will be thoroughly tested to ensure everything is in working order. Should things ever go wrong, weve got you covered.
We offer an incredible 3 years Bronze warranty as standard! This means in the first year of your warranty, we'll cover all the work, labour and shipping costs. The following 2 years we will cover all labour costs only! And at any time for an additional fee, this can be upgraded to any of our other warranty packages. (Please call us at any time to upgrade your warranty)
Overclocking, modifications and removal of any serial numbers will void warranty.
Operating systems and software are NOT covered by warranty. If the problem is found to be caused by either software or user error, you will have to notify the software manufacturer of the issue. Ginger6 will not be liable for this.
