8. WARRANTY
All items purchased through our online channels are covered by the legal warranty regime. Please read the following conditions carefully before making your purchase:
8.1. Warranty Activation
- Procedure: To activate the warranty, the Customer should contact Gamer Unlocked at support@gamerunlocked.pt with the order number and a description of the problem. The item should be sent in its original packaging, with all accessories and the invoice.
- Collection: In Portugal (mainland, Madeira and the Azores) and mainland Spain, Gamer Unlocked arranges the collection of the item at no cost to the Customer. In all other destinations, including the Spanish islands, Ceuta and Melilla, Gamer Unlocked either arranges the collection or puts the Customer in direct contact with the brand to handle the warranty, also at no cost to the Customer.
- Address: Items under warranty are sent to:
Rua Lourenço Pires Chaves, Lote 26, No. 25, 5400-358 Chaves, Portugal. - Timeframe: After receipt, the product will be analyzed within 5 business days. If no defect is found, the Customer will be notified, and a shipping fee may be charged for returning the product.
8.2. Documentation
- Requirement: The invoice issued at the time of purchase is the only valid proof for warranty claims. Please keep this document carefully.
8.3. Manufacturer’s Warranty
In compliance with current Portuguese legislation (Decree-Law no. 84/2021), all new products purchased are covered by a 3-Year Legal Warranty.
-
Burden of Proof: During the first two years, any lack of conformity is presumed to have existed at the time of delivery. During the third year, the burden of proof may lie with the Consumer to demonstrate that the defect existed at the time of delivery.
-
Manufacturer’s Warranty: Some products may have extended warranties offered directly by the manufacturer. In these cases, specific terms apply as per the manufacturer’s policy.
-
Direct contact with the brand: Alternatively, the Customer can claim the warranty directly with the brand. The Gamer Unlocked invoice serves as proof of purchase.
8.4. DOA (Dead on Arrival) Products
- Definition: Products purchased within less than 14 days that exhibit defects or damages upon receipt will be classified as DOA.
- Procedure: Once DOA items arrive at our facilities, they will be immediately tested for malfunction. If a defect is confirmed, Gamer Unlocked will replace the item within 5 business days, except in cases of stock unavailability. In such cases, the Customer will be informed about the expected replacement time or the possibility of exchanging the product for a similar item.
8.5. Technical Review and Discontinued Products
- Technical Review: All products sent for analysis undergo a rigorous evaluation. After this stage, responsibility for repair or replacement passes to the manufacturers and suppliers.
- Discontinued Products: When a product is no longer in production, it will be exchanged for an equivalent or superior item, subject to supplier availability. Alternatively, a credit note valid for 6 months may be issued.
8.6. Conditions That Invalidate the Warranty
Any alteration to the original product, such as removing serial numbers, physical damage, or unauthorized repairs, automatically invalidates the warranty.
Exception for Hot-Swappable Devices: For keyboards or devices with “Hot-Swappable” functionality, changing switches or keycaps does not invalidate the warranty, provided the procedure is performed correctly. However, if damage is caused to the PCB or Hotswap Sockets due to user mishandling (e.g., forcing switches with bent pins), the repair will not be covered under warranty.
8.7. Logistical Costs
- If the product sent for repair shows no defects, or if the defect is due to improper use, a fee may be charged to cover the associated logistical costs.
8.8. Limitation of Liability
- Gamer Unlocked is not responsible for the partial or total loss of data, programs, or software installed on products sent for repair.
8.9. Timeframe for Reporting a Fault
- So that the issue can be resolved as quickly as possible, the Customer should contact Gamer Unlocked within 30 days of detecting the fault or lack of conformity. This timeframe does not limit the rights or deadlines provided by law (Decree-Law No. 84/2021).
9. OUTLET PRODUCTS (USED AND OPEN BOX)
Used and open-box products are available in our Outlet and are offered at differentiated prices based on their condition. They are classified according to a system designed to clearly inform the product’s state:
- Grade A: Product in “like-new” condition, fully functional, with all accessories and in its original packaging. (Typically, items used internally for testing purposes.)
- Grade B: Product that is fully functional and shows no signs of wear but may be missing some accessories or the original packaging. Although it operates identically to a new product, it may have minor cosmetic differences.
- Grade C: Product that is fully operational but exhibits visible signs of use. In this case, accessories and/or the original packaging may be incomplete or absent.
Important:
The grade (A, B, or C) will be clearly indicated at the time of purchase. We recommend that buyers carefully review the description and details provided for each product before finalizing their order.
9.1. Warranty for Outlet Products
Used Outlet products (tested by us or returned) come with an 18-month warranty, by agreement between the parties, under Article 12(3) of Decree-Law No. 84/2021, provided this is stated on the product page. New products with opened or damaged packaging keep the full 3-year legal warranty. The warranty covers technical issues and manufacturing defects. This warranty does not cover damage resulting from misuse or negligence by the user. In the event of a defect, the Customer must follow the procedure outlined in our warranty policy.
Note:
Outlet products undergo a rigorous evaluation and testing process to ensure functionality, although they may display minimal signs of use that do not affect performance. If you have any questions or require further clarification, our support team is available to assist.
10. GIFT CARDS
10.1. Purchase and Delivery
- Gift cards are available in amounts of 10, 25, 50 and 100 €, or in a custom amount between 20 and 300 €.
- Once payment is confirmed, the card is sent by email, as a PDF and as an image, and is also available in My account. For high-value orders or orders with several cards, Gamer Unlocked confirms the order manually before sending the cards, which may delay delivery.
10.2. Use
- The card code is entered at checkout, in the coupon field, and the amount is deducted from the products in the order. Any remaining balance stays on the card for future purchases. If the order costs more than the balance, the difference is paid with any of the available payment methods.
- The card can only be used on gamerunlocked.pt and only for products. It does not pay for shipping or other gift cards. The amount paid with the card counts towards the free shipping threshold.
- Several cards can be used in the same order, together with a promotional code and with Unlocked Credit.
- The balance and expiry date of a card can be checked on the Gift card balance page.
10.3. Validity
The card is valid for 24 months from the purchase date, shown on the card and in the email. Any balance not used by that date is lost.
10.4. Refunds, Returns and Exchange for Cash
- The card and any remaining balance cannot be exchanged for cash, except in the two cases below.
- Right of withdrawal: the buyer has 14 days from purchase to request a refund of a card that has not been used, by email to support@gamerunlocked.pt, stating the order number.
- Delivery outside Portugal: for tax reasons, the use of gift cards may become limited to orders delivered in Portugal. If that happens, anyone without a delivery address in Portugal can request a refund of the unused balance.
- If an order paid in full or in part with a gift card is cancelled or returned, the amount paid with the card goes back to the card, with the same expiry date.
10.5. Security
- The card works like cash: whoever has the code can use it, so the code should be kept safe. Gamer Unlocked cannot restore the balance of a card used by someone else.
- Gamer Unlocked may cancel a card whose purchase is cancelled, reversed or fraudulent.
11. UNLOCKED CREDIT
11.1. What It Is
- Unlocked Credit is store credit linked to the Customer’s account at Gamer Unlocked and given by Gamer Unlocked, for example as compensation from Customer Support, as a commission from the partner programme, as a promotion bonus or as the refund of a return. It is not a gift card and has no code.
- A return is only refunded as credit if the Customer accepts it in writing, by email. Without that acceptance, the refund is made to the payment method used for the purchase.
- It is only available to customers with a store account. Guest purchases neither earn nor use credit.
- Available credit, pending credit and all movements can be checked in My account, under Unlocked Credit.
11.2. Use
- Credit is used at checkout, while logged in, and only for product purchases on gamerunlocked.pt. It does not pay for shipping or gift cards.
- It can be used together with gift cards and promotional codes.
- It cannot be transferred to another account or exchanged for cash, except in the case set out in 11.5.
- Every use is notified by email to the account holder.
- If an order paid with credit is cancelled, the credit used goes back to the account. In a return, the part paid with credit goes back as credit, in proportion to the amount returned.
11.3. Credit Earned with a Purchase
- Credit earned with a purchase, such as partner commissions and promotion bonuses, stays pending and only becomes available 21 days after the order is completed.
- If that order is returned, in full or in part, the corresponding credit is cancelled in the same proportion.
- The part of an order paid with Unlocked Credit does not earn credit.
11.4. Validity
Credit received as the refund of a return does not expire. All other credit expires 12 months after the last movement on the account. Every purchase in the store and every credit movement restarts this period. Gamer Unlocked sends an email reminder 30 days and 7 days before the credit expires.
11.5. Security and Account Closure
- When the account email is changed, the credit is put on hold for 48 hours and a notice is sent to the previous email address.
- If fraud or use contrary to these conditions is suspected, Gamer Unlocked may temporarily suspend the credit on an account and cancel any credit obtained that way.
- If the account is deleted, the credit is lost. Before deleting the account, the Customer can ask for credit received as the refund of returns to be paid back in money, by email to support@gamerunlocked.pt.
The conditions for partner commissions are set out in each creator’s partnership agreement.
