Service Interruptions
While we aim to ship all orders promptly, delays may occasionally occur due to:
- 
Courier issues (e.g. strikes, adverse weather, seasonal demand) 
- 
Delays sourcing parts for custom builds 
- 
Bank holidays or unforeseen circumstances 
If there’s any delay with your order, we’ll notify you promptly and offer updates or alternative options.

Lost or Delayed Deliveries
If your item hasn’t arrived within the expected timeframe, please contact us. We’ll investigate with the courier and, if necessary, issue a refund or replacement once the case is resolved.

Packaging
All items are packed with care to prevent damage in transit. Custom-built PCs are protected with internal packaging and sturdy, reinforced outer boxes.
