Answer: The Diagnostic is free of charge.
What is the repair process?
Answer: First, we examine your device to discover what might be the problem. If the estimated cost of the repair is less than €40 including VAT, we can take immediate action and we fix the problem. If the repair costs more than €40 including VAT, we inform you about it and you receive a quotation from us for the repair. After that you can decide what you wish us to do: repair the device or not. If you wish not to repair your device you do not have to pay for the examination. According to our policy if we do not repair your device, you do not have to pay anything.
Do you provide express-diagnostic and repair service?
Answer: Yes, it is possible to perform express-diagnostic and repair. Therefore, we charge an additional €50 including VAT for the extra service. The fee is non-refundable, and will be charged even if you do not end up requesting the repair.

Therefore we can provide most of the repair service within 48 hours. If we do not have the necessary parts in stock, we can get them quickly from authorised suppliers. (Please note: we are a service provider, so we do not sell parts separately, such as charging ports, batteries, cables, laptop screens, heatsinks, fans, etc)
Do you provide warranty for your services?
Answer: A repair is a service rather than the sale of a new product. When we fit a replacement component, for example a screen, both the part and the work are covered by our repair service warranty: 30 days on the replaced part and 60 days on the repair work. The longer warranty periods that come with the products we sell do not apply to individual components fitted during a repair.

What does the term “refurbished laptop” mean?
Answer: Some people think of a refurbished laptop as something damaged or outdated and unusable. The reality is that most refurbished models have absolutely nothing wrong with them! Some are less than a year old. The laptop has usually been professionally refurbished by the manufacturer or dealer to bring it as close to "like new" condition as possible.
How does the refurbishing process work?
Answer: During the inspection process, if we find broken or faulty parts, they will be replaced to bring the machine back to the best condition and performance. When we have completed the inspection and possible repair, we clean the computer inside and outside and we also perform a full data wipe and install a new operating system with the necessary drivers. After the above process, the laptop will be sold as a refurbished laptop with warranty.

Can I buy extra warranty for the laptops?
Answer: Yes, you can. For certain laptops we offer an extended warranty at extra cost.
What do I do if the laptop I bought from you stops working?
Answer: Every time we sell a laptop, we include a warranty card with it. The warranty card will tell you when the warranty period started and how long the warranty lasts. During this period, your laptop will have a limited warranty. You can claim the warranty when you return the laptop to our shop. We will inspect the laptop and try to repair it. If this is not possible, we will replace the laptop with a laptop of the same type or value.
What is covered by the warranty?
