General Return Policy
Because PCZONEX sells technology products that may be high-value, specialized, configurable, or subject to manufacturer warranties, return eligibility can vary depending on product type, condition, reason for return, time since delivery, use, modification, defect status, custom configuration, bulk or promotional purchase, manufacturer warranty, and applicable law. :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}
Unless otherwise required by applicable law or expressly stated for a specific product, purchases are generally considered final after the order has been accepted and processed. Returns are not automatically available simply because a customer changes their mind, orders the wrong product, or decides that the product is no longer wanted. :contentReference[oaicite:3]{index=3}
Nothing in this policy is intended to limit rights that cannot legally be excluded or restricted under applicable law. :contentReference[oaicite:4]{index=4}

Return Shipping
Return shipping responsibility may depend on the reason for the return.
Defective Product
A verified defective product may receive different shipping treatment from a voluntary return.
Customer Ordering Error

Warranty claims may be subject to manufacturer or PCZONEX shipping procedures. Customers should not ship products back without receiving instructions. :contentReference[oaicite:18]{index=18}

Cryptocurrency Refunds
PCZONEX accepts digital currency / cryptocurrency as its payment method. Where a refund is approved, the refund procedure may involve cryptocurrency rather than fiat currency. :contentReference[oaicite:20]{index=20}
Cryptocurrency values can fluctuate significantly. Therefore, the amount of cryptocurrency returned may not necessarily have the same market value as the cryptocurrency originally sent. :contentReference[oaicite:21]{index=21}
Where applicable, the refund method and amount are determined according to the approved refund amount, applicable order terms, cryptocurrency transaction, exchange-rate procedures, applicable law, and circumstances of the refund.
PCZONEX does not guarantee that cryptocurrency refunded at a later date will have the same market value as when the original payment was made. :contentReference[oaicite:22]{index=22}
Cryptocurrency Transaction Responsibility
Customers are responsible for providing correct cryptocurrency payment information, including:
- Correct cryptocurrency
- Correct blockchain network
- Correct wallet address
- Correct transaction amount
- Required transaction fees
Blockchain transactions may be irreversible. PCZONEX is not responsible for losses resulting from incorrect wallet addresses, incorrect networks, unsupported cryptocurrencies, incorrect amounts, or unauthorized payment destinations. :contentReference[oaicite:23]{index=23}
Refund Processing
Once a refund has been approved, PCZONEX will process it according to the applicable refund procedure.
Processing time may depend on:
- Return inspection
- Product testing
- Manufacturer authorization
- Payment verification
- Cryptocurrency transaction processing
- Internal processing
- Applicable banking or blockchain conditions
- Other circumstances
A refund is not considered approved merely because a customer requests one. :contentReference[oaicite:24]{index=24}
Refunds For Shipping Charges
Whether original shipping charges are refundable depends on the circumstances of the return and applicable law.
Shipping charges may be treated differently for:
- Customer-requested returns
- Defective products
- Incorrect products
- Damaged shipments
- Failed deliveries
- Refused shipments
- Address errors
- Other circumstances
Refused Or Undeliverable Shipments
If a customer refuses delivery or a package is returned because of an incorrect address, incomplete address, failure to pay customs charges, failure to collect the shipment, customer refusal, or failure to respond to carrier or customs requests, additional shipping or handling charges may apply where permitted. :contentReference[oaicite:25]{index=25}
A refused or returned shipment does not automatically qualify for a refund. :contentReference[oaicite:26]{index=26}

Remove personal information, passwords, accounts, and other sensitive data where reasonably possible.
Software & Third-Party Services
Software licenses, subscriptions, operating systems, third-party applications, cloud services, and digital services may be subject to separate terms established by their respective providers.
A hardware return does not necessarily create a right to a refund for third-party services. Customers should review applicable third-party terms. :contentReference[oaicite:28]{index=28}
Manufacturer Returns & Warranty
Some products may be covered directly by a manufacturer warranty. In such cases, PCZONEX may direct customers to the manufacturer or assist with the warranty process where appropriate.
Manufacturer warranty procedures, eligibility requirements, repair procedures, and exclusions may differ from PCZONEX policies. Customers should retain invoices, serial numbers, and order information required for warranty service. :contentReference[oaicite:29]{index=29}
Return Inspection Timeline
Returned products may require reasonable time for:
- Receipt
- Verification
- Inspection
- Testing
- Diagnosis
- Manufacturer review
- Warranty determination
Processing time can vary depending on product type, complexity, replacement-component availability, and manufacturer procedures. PCZONEX will make reasonable efforts to process approved returns and warranty claims in a timely manner. :contentReference[oaicite:30]{index=30}
No Refund Based Solely On Cryptocurrency Value Changes
Cryptocurrency market movements do not by themselves create a right to cancel an order or receive an additional refund.
If a customer paid a particular amount of cryptocurrency and its market value subsequently changes, that change does not independently alter the original purchase price or create an additional refund obligation.
Fraudulent Or Unauthorized Transactions
PCZONEX may investigate transactions that appear suspicious, fraudulent, unauthorized, or inconsistent with applicable security requirements.
An order may be delayed, suspended, or cancelled while a transaction is reviewed where reasonably necessary.
Customers should never send cryptocurrency to a wallet address unless they have verified that it is an official PCZONEX payment destination. :contentReference[oaicite:31]{index=31}
Abuse Of Return Or Warranty Procedures
PCZONEX reserves the right to investigate patterns of suspected abuse involving:
- Repeated unsupported return claims

- Repeated refusal of shipments
- Other fraudulent or abusive activity
Where permitted by applicable law, PCZONEX may restrict future transactions or take other appropriate action. :contentReference[oaicite:32]{index=32}
Legal Rights
This policy does not remove or restrict consumer rights that cannot legally be excluded under applicable law.
Depending on the customer's location and the nature of the transaction, mandatory consumer protection, warranty, refund, or statutory rights may apply.
Where applicable law provides greater rights than this policy, the applicable law will govern to the extent required. :contentReference[oaicite:33]{index=33}
