By accessing the Site, creating an account, or placing an order, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site or place an order.

We prioritize customer satisfaction and offer prompt shipping and a 30-day money-back guarantee as described below.
3. Eligibility and Accounts
You must be at least 18 years old, or the age of majority in your jurisdiction, to place an order. If you create an account, you are responsible for keeping your login credentials confidential and for all activity under your account. You agree to provide accurate, current information. You may manage your account at My Account and submit inquiries via Support Tickets. You may request deletion of your account and data as described in our Privacy Policy.
4. Products, Descriptions, and Condition
We sell used, refurbished, open-box, and new electronics and related equipment. We aim for accurate and clear product descriptions and photographs, but we do not provide detailed one-on-one support for individual items. Please note:
- Unless expressly stated otherwise, products are sold “as tested” and do not carry a manufacturer’s warranty.
- Each item is tested for functionality and graded according to the R2v3 REC standard described in Section 11.
- For customer privacy and security, we do not disclose individual item identifiers such as service tags, serial numbers, IMEI, UUID, or MAC addresses.
- We do not provide ongoing technical support or setup services for products purchased.
5. Orders, Pricing, and Availability
All orders are subject to acceptance and product availability. Because we sell the same inventory across our store, our website, and eBay, an item may sell before an order is finalized. If an item you ordered is unavailable, we will notify you and issue a full refund for that item. We reserve the right to correct pricing or description errors and to cancel or refuse any order affected by such an error, even after an order has been submitted; in that case we will refund any amount charged. Prices are in U.S. dollars and are subject to change without notice.
6. Payment
We accept the following payment methods:
- Credit and debit cards online, processed securely by Stripe. Your card details are entered directly with Stripe and are not stored on our servers. Stripe may offer an accelerated checkout option (Stripe Link). See our Privacy Policy for how payment data is handled.
- Direct bank transfer, where offered at checkout.
- In-store payments (cash, debit, and credit) at our Portland location through our point-of-sale system.
Credit Card Surcharge: We apply a 3% surcharge on credit card payments for in-store sales. This surcharge is not charged on debit card or cash payments. You authorize us to charge your selected payment method for the total order amount, including applicable taxes, shipping, and surcharges.
7. Shipping and Delivery
We ship using major carriers and provide tracking where available. Shipping charges and estimated delivery times are shown at checkout or on the applicable eBay listing. Title and risk of loss pass to you upon delivery to the carrier. We are not responsible for carrier delays. Additional shipping and handling details are available on our About page and our eBay store; we recommend reviewing them periodically for updates.
8. Making an Offer
Offers are considered only when submitted through eBay’s “Make Offer” function, and only for listings where that feature is enabled. Due to the volume of messages, we do not respond to offer messages; however, reasonable offers submitted through the tool will be considered.
9. Returns, Refunds, and Restocking
- We offer a 30-day money-back guarantee. Returns are accepted within 30 days of delivery in accordance with this policy and, for marketplace purchases, the applicable eBay return policy.
- A 5% restocking fee applies to undamaged items returned within the 30-day period. Returned items must include all original packaging and accessories.
- Items that are damaged by the customer, missing parts, or returned outside the 30-day window may not be eligible for a refund.
- Refunds are issued to the original payment method after the returned item is received and inspected.
10. Warranties and Disclaimers
Except for any express warranty stated in a specific listing, all products and the Site are provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. Products do not carry manufacturer warranties unless expressly stated. We do not warrant that the Site will be uninterrupted, error-free, or secure. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties, so some of the above may not apply to you.
