Terms of Service

Last updated: August 29, 2026

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your use of the Unpatched Tech website and your purchase or use of products and services offered by Unpatched Tech (“Unpatched Tech,” “we,” “us,” or “our”).

By accessing our website, placing an order, submitting equipment for service, or otherwise using our services, you agree to these Terms.

Our online store is powered by Shopify, which provides the ecommerce platform that allows us to offer products and services to you.

1. Online Store Terms

You may use our website and services only for lawful purposes and in accordance with these Terms.

You agree not to use our website, products, or services in a manner that violates applicable law, infringes the rights of others, interferes with the operation or security of our website, or attempts to gain unauthorized access to any system or account.

We reserve the right to refuse or cancel service where reasonably necessary, subject to applicable law.

2. Products and Availability

Unpatched Tech sells products that may include new, used, refurbished, restored, customized, modified, or otherwise previously owned electronics, gaming hardware, computers, accessories, components, and related products.

Because many products are used, refurbished, custom-built, discontinued, or limited in availability, individual units may vary slightly in appearance or condition.

We make reasonable efforts to accurately describe and photograph our products. Colors, cosmetic condition, packaging, accessories, revisions, and other characteristics may vary unless specifically guaranteed in the product listing.

Products and quantities are subject to availability. We may discontinue or modify products at any time.

3. Used and Refurbished Products

Used and refurbished electronics may exhibit normal signs of prior use, including scratches, scuffs, discoloration, wear, replacement components, or other cosmetic imperfections.

We will make reasonable efforts to disclose significant known defects or condition issues.

Unless expressly stated otherwise in the product description, original packaging, documentation, accessories, and manufacturer warranties are not guaranteed to be included with used or refurbished products.

4. Modified and Custom Products

Certain products offered by Unpatched Tech may be customized, restored, upgraded, repaired, or modified from their original factory configuration.

Modifications may include replacement shells, displays, storage devices, lighting, controls, internal components, software configurations, or other upgrades.

Modified products may no longer qualify for the original manufacturer's warranty or support.

Unpatched Tech is an independent business and is not affiliated with, sponsored by, endorsed by, or authorized by the manufacturers of products we service, restore, modify, or resell unless expressly stated otherwise.

5. Custom Orders

Custom-built or made-to-order products are produced according to the options selected or specifications agreed upon when the order is placed.

Because custom products may be specifically produced for an individual customer, cancellation, modification, return, and refund eligibility may differ from standard inventory.

Any special restrictions applicable to a custom product will be disclosed during the ordering process or in the applicable product description.

Estimated completion dates for custom work are estimates rather than guarantees unless expressly agreed otherwise in writing.

6. Repairs and Customer-Supplied Equipment

Customers may submit eligible equipment to Unpatched Tech for repair, restoration, modification, diagnosis, or other services.

Before performing work, we may inspect or diagnose the equipment and communicate recommended work, pricing, or additional issues discovered during service.

Electronic equipment—particularly older, previously modified, damaged, or malfunctioning hardware—can contain pre-existing problems that are not immediately apparent.

We are not responsible for pre-existing defects, ordinary deterioration, undisclosed prior repairs or modifications, or failures unrelated to the work performed by Unpatched Tech.

If additional problems are discovered that materially change the scope or price of the requested work, we will seek authorization before performing additional chargeable work.

7. Customer Data and Backups

Repairs, upgrades, modifications, restoration, troubleshooting, and hardware failure can result in the loss or corruption of stored data.

Customers are responsible for backing up important data before submitting any device to Unpatched Tech whenever reasonably possible.

Unless otherwise expressly agreed in writing, Unpatched Tech does not guarantee preservation or recovery of data stored on customer-supplied equipment.

We will use reasonable care when handling customer equipment and data accessible during service.

8. Pricing and Payments

Prices displayed on our website are subject to change without notice.

Applicable taxes, shipping charges, and other charges will be displayed during checkout when applicable.

By submitting payment information, you represent that you are authorized to use the selected payment method and authorize the applicable charges associated with your purchase.

We reserve the right to correct genuine pricing, inventory, or listing errors. If an error affects an order already placed, we will contact you regarding available options, including cancellation and refund where appropriate.

9. Orders

Submission of an order does not necessarily constitute final acceptance of the order.

We may decline or cancel an order for legitimate reasons including inventory errors, payment problems, suspected fraud, listing errors, shipping restrictions, or inability to fulfill a custom request.

If we cancel an order after payment has been collected, the applicable amount will be refunded according to the original payment method or as otherwise required by law.

10. Shipping and Delivery

Shipping estimates are estimates and may be affected by carrier delays, weather, holidays, address issues, customs processing, and other circumstances outside our reasonable control.

Customers are responsible for providing accurate and complete shipping information.

Risk of loss and responsibility for shipments will be handled in accordance with applicable law and our Shipping Policy.

Customers should promptly contact us regarding packages that arrive damaged, incomplete, or materially different from the order.

11. Returns and Refunds

Returns, exchanges, cancellations, and refunds are governed by our Refund Policy, which forms part of these Terms.

Certain customized, personalized, made-to-order, clearance, digital, or otherwise designated products may have different return eligibility where permitted by law and disclosed before purchase.

Nothing in these Terms limits rights that cannot legally be waived.

12. Intellectual Property

The Unpatched Tech website and original materials appearing on it—including our branding, graphics, photographs, written content, website design elements, and other original materials—are owned by or licensed to Unpatched Tech unless otherwise indicated.

You may not reproduce, distribute, commercially exploit, or misrepresent our original materials without authorization except where permitted by law.

Third-party trademarks, product names, console names, logos, and other intellectual property remain the property of their respective owners.

Their appearance on our website is used to identify compatible products, products being resold or serviced, or other relevant goods and does not by itself imply affiliation or endorsement.

13. Prohibited Uses

You may not use our website or services to engage in fraud, violate applicable law, distribute malicious software, interfere with website security, scrape or harvest information through unauthorized means, impersonate another person, infringe intellectual property rights, or otherwise misuse our services.

We may restrict access when reasonably necessary to protect our customers, business, systems, or legal rights.

14. Third-Party Services and Links

Our website may contain links to or integrations with third-party websites and services.

We are not responsible for the content, availability, privacy practices, security, products, or services of independent third parties.

Your use of third-party services may be governed by separate terms and policies provided by those parties.

15. Disclaimer of Warranties

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, our website and services are provided on an “as available” basis except for warranties or guarantees expressly provided by Unpatched Tech.

Used, vintage, refurbished, and modified electronics inherently may have different reliability, longevity, appearance, and performance characteristics than new factory products.

Nothing in these Terms excludes warranties, consumer protections, or other rights that cannot legally be excluded.

16. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Unpatched Tech will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of our website, products, or services.

Our liability will not be limited where such limitation is prohibited by applicable law.

17. Privacy

Our collection, use, and disclosure of personal information are described in our Privacy Policy.

By using our services, you acknowledge that personal information may be processed as described in that policy.

18. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms periodically to reflect changes to our services, business practices, technology, or legal requirements.

The version posted on our website at the time of use will apply as provided by applicable law. The “Last updated” date at the top indicates when these Terms were most recently revised.

19. Severability

If any provision of these Terms is determined to be unlawful, invalid, or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue in effect to the extent permitted by law.

20. Entire Agreement

These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy, Refund Policy, Shipping Policy, and other policies expressly incorporated into them, constitute the agreement governing your use of our website and applicable purchases and services.
