Terms and Conditions

Last modified – 01/08/2022

At Cheap Game Consoles UK, we love to help all consumers, but if you are buying for a business, please let us know; there are some other terms (and benefits) you should know about.

We’ve tried to keep our Terms and Conditions as clear as possible, and give you all the information we can about your online transactions so that you completely understand the whole process, from order to delivery and beyond. It’s really important to us that your online shopping experience meets expectations, so please spend a few minutes and read on. You’ll need to accept our T’s & C’s every time you make a purchase – they might change from time to time, so do check the date at the top of the page.

Firstly, don’t panic if you make any mistakes during your order, you can correct any input errors right up until you confirm payment. Once you’re happy everything is correct and you’ve submitted an order you’ll be given an Order Reference Number and details of the products (and/or services) you have ordered. You’ll then receive an email headed ‘Order Confirmed’ recognising receipt of your order. This email also lets you know how your products will be delivered to you. If we have to cancel all or part of your order for any reason, we will email you to let you know.

We take all reasonable steps to ensure all details, descriptions and prices of products and services are correct at the time the information was entered onto the system. Sometimes we have to hold our hands up and admit we have made a mistake by unintentionally publishing inaccurate information on the site (e.g. the price, description or availability of a product you have ordered). In this instance we may have to cancel your order at any time, even if you have received your Order Confirmation email, and you will receive a full refund of any charges already paid.

As you would expect all our prices are in UK pounds. The total cost of your order will be the price of the products you order, the delivery charge (if any), plus any additional services you choose e.g. express delivery or preinstallation of games. You’ll see all these in your Shopping Basket before you submit an order. Payment is deducted once an order is submitted.

You’ll find all the finer details about our delivery (including where we deliver to), at the product pages, if you are unsure, or we dont offer any delivery services to your Country/Location, you are more than welcome to contact us.

For most gaming related products we can take away your old console for you, if you would like to have it recycled and protect the environment.

We want you to be absolutely satisfied with your product and would recommend that, where practicable, you unpack and check it for damage as soon as it arrives. If you receive a damaged product please contact us as soon as the damage is discovered via our Service Repair Request System, or Telephone Contact Number.

We do everything we can to ensure your order arrives at your door complete and in pristine condition. If you don’t receive all your products at once, you can check that they have been dispatched using our tracking facility detailed in the confirmation email. If it’s not on its way, you can speak now to one of our helpful colleagues using our Mailing system. In the unlikely event that the product is faulty, please contact us immediately.

If for whatever reason you change your mind and would like to return your order after delivery, we’re happy to refund or exchange your purchase as long as it’s unopened and in its original packaging. This option is available for 14 days after delivery.

Following The Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations, we will accept items back even if you have opened the goods to inspect them. You are entitled to a refund as long as you inform us of your decision to cancel within 14 calendar days from the day after delivery of the goods.

The goods must be in the same as condition as received and returned in the original, undamaged packaging, along with any accessories and free gifts received with them.
