Bundle
Specials
Bundle Specials are offered to

discounted price. Only one of each Bundle Special can be purchased per order.
Offers valid only while supplies of all items within the bundle last. If you
attempt to purchase multiple units of a Bundle Special, be advised that items
with a mail-in rebate will yield only one redeemable rebate offer (per the
manufacturer's "limit one per household" provision). IdealPOS.com cannot
guarantee the compatibility of bundle items. Please contact the manufacturer(s)
directly if you have issues or concerns regarding compatibility.
If you wish to return a Bundle Special for a refund, you must return the ENTIRE
BUNDLE within 30 days of the original order date. Note that a 15% restocking fee
will be applied. Components within a Bundle Special may be returned for
repair/replacement only. Individual items within a bundle may only be returned
for repair / replacement if an RMA number is acquired within the standard return
period.
Promo
Codes
IdealPOS.com will sometimes
furnish an alphanumeric code that can be used for promotions on our website
These promotional codes may be found in print and/or online advertisements, sent
via e-mail to our Promotion subscribers, presented on the IdealPOS.com website
or circulated at events and through other means. Some of the specials offered by
entering a Promo Code during checkout include free shipping, volume discounts,
free gifts or complimentary Rush Order processing. The provisions for a Promo
Code will be included with the code itself; if an expiration date or other
condition is stipulated, just reference where you acquired the code for the
exact requirements. Please note that Promo Codes are not redeemable for cash and
you must spend more than the discount price in order for a promotion to be
applied. For example, if a Promo Code offered $10.00 off your next purchase, you
would need to spend more than $10.00 to redeem your discount.
Mail-in
Rebates
For your convenience IdealPOS.com
does its best to advertise any current rebates on our website. Any use of these
rebates is limited to the terms and conditions specified by the product
manufacturer. If you have any questions regarding rebate terms and conditions,
please contact the manufacturer directly.
Money Back

indicated may be returned within 30 days from the original order date for a
refund. CPUs must be returned within 7 days from the order date for a refund. A
return authorization number is required for all returns. A 15% restocking fee
may apply. Additional deductions may be made for CPU returns to reflect the
current market value. These terms apply to all refunds. Most products are
shipped with a refund/replacement guarantee period unless otherwise noted in the
product listing. Customers must inform IdealPOS.com of any order discrepancy
within 7 days from the order date so that we may investigate and resolve the
situation accordingly.
IdealPOS.com SATISFACTION GUARANTEE – IdealPOS.com offers our customers a 30-day
satisfaction replacement or refund guarantee on all purchases, except:
• 7-day replacement or refund guarantee on all CPUs, including refurbished
processors. All other refurbished merchandise has a 15-day warranty period.
• For CPUs, the base cost will reflect the current market value, and the 15%
restocking fee will be applied after this adjustment.
• Downloadable software is refundable within 15 days of the original order date.
IdealPOS.com will confirm that the product has not been downloaded and, upon
verification, the customer will be issued a letter of destruction. Once he/she

Merchandise Authorization number for the refund amount.
Software
Return Policy
Retail Software may only be
returned for refund within 30 days of the order date if the packaging is
unopened and untampered with. Opened retail software cannot be returned for
refund. If you have opened a retail software purchase to discover a damaged
and/or defective disc, you may exchange the software for an identical
replacement by contacting IdealPOS.com Customer Service at sales@idealpos.com
and acquiring an RMA number. All OEM software including the operating system is
100% non-refundable once purchased and delivered. OEM versions are intended for
system builders only and cannot be transferred to another PC once it has been
installed. Purchasers of this software are required to comply with the terms of
the System Builder License, including responsibility for providing all end-user
support. IdealPOS.com is not responsible for system/software incompatibility,
and incompatibility issues do not qualify software as damaged or defective.
Customers are encouraged to contact the respective software publisher for
answers to technical questions, such as minimum system requirements, prior to
purchase.
"Must Be
Purchased With Hardware"
The "must be purchased with
hardware" precept is mandated by the software publisher. In accordance,
IdealPOS.com customers must purchase some type of product which falls under the
general category of computer hardware in order to purchase applicable software.
Hardware is classified as any component that will be used when assembling a
computer system (a hard drive, motherboard, processor and a floppy drive are all
examples of merchandise that will qualify). There is no specific or set price
the hardware has to be, merely that there is some sort of eligible hardware
present in the order itself.
Physical
Damage Policy
Physical damage to any product
purchased at IdealPOS.com will effectively void warranty coverage. Improper
Installation of CPU fans and/or improper clocking may cause CPUs to chip. CPUs
that are chipped, burnt or have bent pins are considered physically damaged and
cannot be returned for refund or replacement. Physical damage includes but is
not limited to improper handling and/or any other type of damage sustained by
irregular usage. IdealPOS.com encounters bent pins regularly when inspecting
physically damaged CPUs. Forcing a processor into position will not solve an
installation problem and may consequently void any applicable warranty coverage.
Intel will not accept physically damaged processors back from IdealPOS.com. As a
result, IdealPOS.com will return any physically damaged CPU back to the customer
at the customer's expense.
Product Testing
IdealPOS.com like other e-tailers, ships
items in the condition they were received from the original
manufacturer/distributor, unless the product required additional upgrades,
hardware assembly etc. On these products only will IdealPOS.com conduct product
testing before shipping any merchandise.
Restocking
Fee
A 15% restocking fee will be
applied to all returns for refund. Shipping charges are non-refundable. No
refunds after 30 days.
Technical
Support
IdealPOS.com does offer basic
technical assistance. We cannot offer advice on compatibility of items or make
product recommendations. We will provide extensive/long-term technical support
or sales advice if service is purchased at the time of order. We post all of the
information manufacturer with which the provides us for your convenience. Please
contact the manufacturer directly for accurate answers to your technical
questions, or for additional information or specifications which are not posted
at IdealPOS.com.
Processing
Time
You can expect your order to be
processed within approximately 24-48 hours, provided the items are in stock and
there are no problems with payment verification. IdealPOS.com does not guarantee
same day-shipping. Orders are not processed on weekends and holidays.
Rush
Processing
IdealPOS.com will rush process
your order for an additional fee, provided that the following conditions are
met:
• Order is submitted before 12 noon EST.
• Your transaction and credit card authorization is successfully completed
before 12:30PM EST.
• Your shipping address matches your credit card billing address (i.e. No
alternate ship to address).
• Rush Processing does NOT apply to Pre-Paid Check orders.
Rush
Processing Disclaimer:
IN ALL CIRCUMSTANCES,
IDEALPOS.COM'S MAXIMUM LIABILITY IS LIMITED TO THIS RUSH ORDER FEE ONLY. WHILE
IDEALPOS.COM CANNOT GUARANTEE SAME DAY SHIPMENT FOR ALL ORDERS, IDEALPOS.COM
WILL PUT FORTH ITS BEST EFFORT TO SHIP ALL RUSH PROCESSING ORDERS THE SAME
BUSINESS DAY, IF THE ABOVE CONDITIONS ARE MET. OTHERWISE, YOUR $2.99 RUSH
PROCESSING FEE WILL BE REFUNDED.
Back-orders
IdealPOS.com will sell backordered
merchandise. We will charge customers for all items purchased on the initial
order date. Occasional inventory discrepancies may occur due to inaccurate
inventory counts or possibly because the last few items on our shelves are
damaged and/or not in a condition that we can, in good faith, sell to a
customer. In that instance, we will refund your credit/debit card for the item,
along with any applicable tax fees and shipping charges. An automated e-mail
will also be sent to your IdealPOS.com login to alert you of the situation.
Order
status
IdealPOS.com will keep you
informed of your order status via e-mail. All tracking information will be
e-mailed to your IdealPOS.com ID, once your order has shipped (except when an
APO/FPO is the shipping destination). You may also acquire your order status and
other live updates by logging in to your account on our website.
Change
orders
You may request a change to your order
provided the order has not already been charged to your account. Please call us at 1(410) 308.1122 during IdealPOS.com’s hours of
operation to request a change to your order. Please have your sales order (SO)
or customer number ready for better assistance. We strongly discourage sending
change order requests via e-mail at sales@idealpos.com because it is unlikely we
will receive the message in time to make an adjustment due to the sheer volume
of e-mails we receive each day.
Cancel
orders
You may request an order to be
cancelled provided the order has not already been processed and shipped. Simply
call us at 1(410) 308.1122. You will receive a
credit for the full amount to your credit/debit card in approximately 1-2
business days. We strongly discourage sending order cancellation requests via
e-mail because it is unlikely we will receive the message in time to void the
order due to the sheer volume of e-mails we receive each day.
Resellers
For resellers, you must e-mail
your reseller’s information along with the items you wish to purchase to sales@idealpos.com
and we will use our discretion about which items you will be allowed to purchase
at that time. IdealPOS.com currently already negotiates the best possible price
for you, and offers these great discounts to all of our customers through our
website. Anytime we receive any specials or promotions, we will immediately post
them on our website for your notification.
Product
listings
IdealPOS.com strives for accuracy
in all item descriptions, photographs, compatibility references, detailed
specifications, pricing, links and any other product-related information
contained herein or referenced on our website. Due to human error and other
determinates, we cannot guarantee that all item descriptions, photographs,
compatibility references, detailed specifications, pricing, links and any other
product-related information listed is entirely accurate, complete or current,
nor can we assume responsibility for these errors. In the event a product listed

Product
Revisions
IdealPOS.com is not responsible
for changes or variations in product specifications and/or physical appearance.
In the interest of our customers, IdealPOS.com puts forth its best efforts to
ensure that all product information is up-to-date and factual. Unfortunately,
there are varying determinates which, although infrequent, could cause the
information on our website to become outdated without our immediate knowledge.
This includes, but is not limited to, new versions or revisions, color
deviations, retail package alterations and other variations that may be
considered inconsequential by the manufacturer. IdealPOS.com relies on the
manufacturer to communicate these differences. Presently, we have no way of
alerting customers prior to purchase in the event the manufacturer fails to do
so. Consequently, IdealPOS.com will not be held responsible for product revision
changes.
