We will give you an estimated delivery time. Certain items such as fully-assembled PCs may have a slightly longer lead-time (due to the fact that they'll need to be assembled and tested). Should any item not be in stock with our suppliers, we will contact you to suggest a substitute product. At this point, you may accept the substitute, place the item on backorder or cancel the item from your order.

Orders will be placed with our suppliers once payment has been received.

Delivery Options:

  • Door-to-door Courier (via Internet Express):
    • NOTE: Door-to-door Couriers do not deliver to PO Boxes. Please provide a Street Address at checkout.
    • Your order will be delivered directly to your door. Please note that your order's weight is calculated using the higher value of actual or volumetric mass for each product. The delivery rate is calculated according to the total weight of the items in your cart, the total price of the cart as well as the destination address.

Returns:
If a client is not satisfied with a purchase, it can be returned within seven days of the delivery for a full refund, less the shipping costs. Full refunds will only be issued if products are returned unopened and with all packaging and any other materials that were part of the original purchase.

Should an opened product be returned, a re-stocking fee of up to 25% will be charged, provided that all the original packaging and all materials are provided with it. Should an opened item be returned without some or all of the original packaging and materials, ACGL reserves the right, at its sole discretion to levy an additional fee.

Goods returned in opened packaging need to be returned in a condition that is fit for resale. Software, clothing and consumables can only be returned if they have not been opened. In the case of clothing being delivered in the incorrect size, a return will be accepted if ACGL is notified within 24 hours of receiving the item.

All products being shipped back to ACGL should be carefully packed in protective materials where necessary. The package should have the order number, RMA form as supplied by us and return address clearly marked. Should a product be damaged while being shipped to our offices; ACGL will not be liable for the damages. It is recommended to insure any items that you send to us.

All orders cancelled by the client prior to shipping (being prior to fulfilment), for which payment has been received by ACGL, will be refunded to the client in full including any delivery charges quoted. This means that all payments made by the client and received by ACGL are fully refundable deposits until the order is shipped (“fulfilled”) by ACGL.

Replacements:
All products sold by ACGL are covered by the manufacturer's original warranty, which is at least 1 year from the date of order, unless otherwise stated. Some products have longer manufacturer warranties, and we honour these warranties as well.

Should you have a faulty item, contact us and we'll assist you by providing you with the details for the return process. In this case, the customer will be responsible for arranging delivery of the faulty item back to ACGL, but ACGL will cover the return shipping costs back to the customer.

In the unlikely event that a product sold by ACGL is DOA (Dead on arrival) or becomes faulty within 30 days of the delivery date, we will arrange for a courier to collect the item from you and will cover the shipping costs both ways.
