Quick Navigation
Orders and Shipping
How long does order processing take?
Orders are typically processed within 1-3 business days after payment is confirmed. Processing time is separate from delivery time and may be longer during holidays, product launches, promotions, or periods of high order volume.
How long does shipping take?
Standard shipping is generally estimated at 7-15 business days after dispatch. Express shipping is generally estimated at 3-7 business days after dispatch where available. Delivery times depend on the destination, carrier, customs clearance, weather, holidays, and other conditions.
Are delivery times guaranteed?
Delivery estimates are general guidance and are not guaranteed delivery dates unless the selected carrier service specifically provides a delivery guarantee.
Do you offer international shipping?
We ship to many international destinations. Availability, shipping methods, delivery estimates, and charges depend on the destination and the available carrier service.
Will I receive tracking information?
When tracking is available, tracking details are sent after the order has shipped. Tracking may take 24-72 hours to appear or update after dispatch.
Will I have to pay import duties or import taxes when my order is delivered?
For destinations served by our 4PX DDP shipping arrangement, applicable import duties and import taxes are handled by iGameConsole and its logistics partners. Customers should not be asked to pay the same import charges again when the order is delivered.
If an exception applies because a destination is not served by the applicable DDP route, the relevant information will be shown before you complete checkout. If a carrier or customs office requests payment for an order shipped under DDP, contact us with your order number and tracking details as soon as possible.
What if my package is damaged in transit?
Keep the product and all packaging, take clear photos of the outer packaging, shipping label, internal packaging, and product, then contact us with your order number. Do not discard the packaging until our support team provides instructions.
What if tracking says delivered but I cannot find my package?
Check with household members, neighbors, building management, the delivery location, and the carrier first. Then contact us promptly with your order number and tracking details so we can assist with a carrier investigation.
For complete delivery rules, customs information, failed-delivery procedures, and damaged-package instructions, review our Shipping Policy.
Returns and Refunds
What is your return window?
Customers may request a voluntary return within 30 calendar days after delivery of the relevant item. This policy does not remove any mandatory consumer, withdrawal, warranty, or statutory rights that apply in the customer’s location.
Who pays return shipping?
For a change-of-mind return, the customer pays return shipping where permitted by applicable law and where this responsibility was disclosed before purchase. If the product is damaged, defective, or incorrect, iGameConsole covers reasonable return shipping costs.
Can I open and inspect a console before returning it?
Yes. Customers may reasonably inspect and test a product. Substantial use, misuse, unauthorized modification, accidental damage, or missing components may affect the refund where permitted by law.
What if my console arrives damaged?
Contact us as soon as possible with your order number and clear photos or video when available. Keep the product and all packaging. We will review the issue and arrange an appropriate replacement, refund, repair assistance, or other solution.
What if my console does not power on?
Contact us with your order number and a short video or description of the problem. We may first provide basic troubleshooting. If the product has a verified hardware issue, we will handle it under our return, refund, exchange, and applicable warranty rules.
How do I start a return or cancellation?
For eligible orders, sign in to your customer account to submit a cancellation request before shipment or a return request after delivery.

For complete return conditions, deadlines, shipping responsibilities, and refund details, please read our Returns Policy.
When will my refund be issued?
Approved refunds are issued to the original payment method within 10 business days after approval. Your bank, card issuer, or payment provider may require additional time to display the refund.
Can I return a sale item?
Products clearly identified as final sale are not eligible for voluntary change-of-mind returns where permitted by law. Final sale status does not remove rights relating to defective, damaged, incorrect, unsafe, or misdescribed products.
For complete conditions and procedures, review our Returns Policy and Refund Policy.
Exchanges and Cancellations
Can I exchange a damaged, defective, or incorrect product?
Yes. We will help arrange a replacement when the requested product is available. If it is unavailable, we may offer a refund, an alternative product, or another appropriate solution.
Can I exchange one model or color for another?
A change-of-mind model or color change is normally processed as a return and a new order. Any price difference, return shipping cost, and new shipping charge will be explained before processing.
Can I cancel my order?
You may request cancellation before your order has been fulfilled or shipped. Contact us as soon as possible. After shipment, cancellation may no longer be possible and the request will normally be handled under the applicable return or withdrawal process.
For complete rules, review our Exchange Policy and Cancellation Policy.
Technical Support and Warranty
Do I receive technical support?
Yes. Every unit includes up to 90 days of technical support from the delivery date. Support may include device setup, display or audio settings, button or D-pad calibration, firmware questions, and basic configuration guidance.
Is the 90-day support period a 90-day hardware warranty?
No. The 90-day benefit is technical support, not an automatic 90-day commercial hardware warranty. Hardware problems during the 30-day return period are handled under our return, refund, and exchange policies. Any additional product-specific warranty will be stated on the applicable product page or order confirmation.
Does technical support guarantee every game or emulator?
No. Technical support may help with supported setup and configuration questions, but it does not guarantee compatibility with every third-party game, ROM, emulator, firmware modification, or user-created configuration.
