Warranty Coverage - PCSP Advantage

benefits-cut-out-v2.png

PCSP warrants all hardware and accessories purchased against defects in materials or workmanship. PCSP will cover the cost of replacement parts and labor, as well as shipping to our facility and back to the customer (within the contiguous United States). If the equipment cannot be repaired by replacing parts, the entire machine will be replaced as originally ordered or with an available equivalent.

The warranty does not cover neglect or abuse, categorized as: Cosmetic damage, software added after initial purchase, damage due to viruses/malware/ransom attacks, accident, abuse, water or humidity damage, and damage from improper electrical power or power surges. 

What are defects in Materials?

This is a catch-all term referring to any part of the workstation or server that stops functioning as intended. This includes but is not limited to: power supplies, fans, motherboards, hard drives, solid state drives, CPUs, graphic cards, RAM, network cards, and basic chassis components.

On-site Service Coverage

PCSP has expanded our warranty offerings to serve our business customers even better. PCSP Business Advantage and PCSP Business Advantage Plus both include on-site service at your business facility and fully covers all replacement parts, diagnostics, and much more. Please be advised that these warranties are only available for equipment that resides at a commercial location, not residential addresses. Learn more about our advanced on-site coverage plans here: PCSP Advantage.

Restocking Fee

There may be a 20% restocking fee applied to any items returned that were ordered in error by the buyer, or returned as defective but deemed as operational upon receipt. We do not like charging this fee but it is merely to re-coup the cost of shipping heavy equipment. Enforcement of this fee is up to our customer service representative's discretion. 

Warranties Purchased Before May 2024

In May of 2024, we changed our standard warranty from 90 days to 1 year. If you purchased an extended warranty before this period, you get an extra year of warranty coverage from your date of purchase. For example, if you bought a 3 year warranty in April 2024, you now have 4 years of coverage (through April 2028).

Warranty for International Purchases

PCSP warranties are offered globally to all customers, however, orders shipped outside of the 48 contiguous US states must pay for shipping to and from the PCSP facility in New Hudson, MI. Please take this into consideration if you are shipping your equipment outside the United States. 

Warranty Cancelation or Refund

Warranties, like all other products, can only be returned or refunded within 90 days of purchase. If you have used your warranty to make a claim, the warranty is then non-refundable.

Damages During Shipping

We take extra precautions with the packaging and shipping of your orders. But if you notice your equipment has been damaged during shipping (crushed or torn box) please notify us immediately. PCSP will rectify this with the shipping carrier and ship you a replacement. 

How to make a Warranty Claim

If your machine is not functioning properly, please reach out to us in chat, by phone, or email (support@pcsp.com). Our expert technical team will be able to assess your issue and find possible solutions. We will need your original order number, name, email, as well as a detailed explanation of the issues you are having. If your machine needs to be shipped back to us, the team will provide you with a shipping label to print out and ship to us for free. For more information on RMAs please click here.
