30-Day Peace of Mind.
We want you to love your endgame build. Whether it's a defect or just a change of preference, our transparent policy ensures you're covered.
The 30-Day Guarantee
You may return or exchange eligible items within 30 days of the delivery date. To keep things smooth and ensure we can accept your return, please make sure your items meet the following criteria:
- Pristine Condition: Items must be unused, un-soldered, and un-mounted.
- Original Packaging: Must include all original boxes, protective trays, and included accessories.
- Proof of Purchase: Your order number or receipt is required.
🔄 Regarding Exchanges
The fastest way to ensure you get what you want is to return the item you have. Once the return is accepted and refunded, simply make a separate purchase for the new item.
Common Scenarios
🤔 "I don't like the sound or feel."
Preference is subjective! If the switch isn't your vibe, you can return it within 30 days. The items must be unmounted. Original and return shipping costs are the buyer's responsibility.
🔧 "Some switches have bent pins."
Copper pins are soft and occasionally bend during transit despite our crush-proof packaging. This is entirely normal. Simply straighten them gently with tweezers—they will work perfectly.
📦 "I received the wrong item."
Our apologies! If we messed up your order, please email us a photo of the received items within 7 days. We will immediately ship the correct items at zero cost to you.
⏳ "I want to cancel my Pre-order/GB."
Group Buys (GB) are crowdfunded manufacturing runs. Once the GB window closes, funds are sent to the factory, and we cannot issue cancellations or refunds for change of mind.
The "Hardcore Builder" Exceptions
Due to the precise and sensitive nature of mechanical keyboard parts, we CANNOT accept returns for items that have been altered by the user. Once modified, they can no longer be sold as new.
⚠️ Non-Returnable Conditions Include:
• Switches that have been soldered or show obvious signs of being mounted into a hot-swap PCB (scratched pins).
• Switches that have been opened, spring-swapped, or aftermarket lubed by the user.
• Final sale, clearance items, or custom-built requests.
• Missing original components or damaged retail packaging.
