GOODS IN TRANSIT INSURANCE
All Orders shipped by us are covered by our own goods in transit insurance to the full value of the order which is additional to the goods in transit insurance offered by DPD.ie. Our goods are packed to International standards to ensure damage in transit is highly unlikely and all of our orders are packed in a secure location which has 16 high definition security cameras to ensure should there be a report of a missing item / short shipment it can be verified quickly. All of our orders are sealed and should not be accepted or signed for if there is damage to the packing or if the packing looks like it has been opened. If an order is damaged or lost in transit the claims procedures of our insurer must be adhered to or we cannot guarantee a favourable outcome. It is our policy to replace orders which have been lost in transit however if this is not acceptable to the customer then a claim can be made to the value of the goods with our insurer. If a Custom Assembled Desktop PC or Laptop suffers damage in transit we will examine the unit and replace any damaged components however we cannot replace a custom desktop pc or laptop in its entirety unless the product is declared a write off by our insurers. It is our policy to avoid our customer having to wait for claims to be settled and we reserve the right to make a determination whilst we wait for the insurers official determination. This ensures we can often resolve an issue in days however for this to happen we do need the customers help and assistance. If we collect a custom desktop pc or laptop under the collect and return warranty it is covered up to €500 for damage in transit once the item has been packed to the same standard as it was shipped in. If a customer chooses to return an item(s) with a different carrier of their own choosing then any returned item(s) are no covered until the terms of our goods in transit policy. We would please ask customers not to use AN POST for returns as we have experienced issues as AN POST staff sign for deliveries and not the recipient ( US) which can make claiming for lost of damaged item(s) very difficult. Items not be returned by going to a DPD.IE PICKUP POINT of which there are over 600 across Ireland https://dpd.ie/Pickup. At your local Pickup Point you can return any item after paying a fee to the Pickup Point https://shipping.dpd.ie/products-and-services/pickup-shops.
