Warranty & Returns & Refund

  • PRODUCT WARRANTY

    GMKtec offers support via email (service@gmktec.com) for consultations and after-sales support and a 1-year warranty from the date of order placement on its products, with free repair during that period. You would have to send the device to the designated location and bear the shipping costs, GMKtec will repair it and return it free of shipping costs. After the warranty period, the repair costs will run from your account.

    GMKtec warrants the original purchaser that your GMKtec product shall be free from defects in materials and workmanship under normal use for the period aforementioned. GMKtec is not responsible for damage arising from failure to follow instructions relating to the product's usage.

    REMEDIES

    If a hardware defect is found and a valid claim is received by GMKtec within the Limited Warranty Period, GMKtec will, at its option and to the extent permitted by law, either:
    (1) Repair the product at no charge, using new or refurbished replacement parts; or
    (2) Replace the product with a new or refurbished product.

    In the event of a defect, to the extent permitted by law, these are your sole and exclusive remedies. Shipping and handling charges may apply except where prohibited by applicable law.

    Any replacement hardware product or parts will be warranted for the remainder of the original warranty period or thirty (30) days, whichever is longer.

Please do not open a dispute directly, as doing so may delay and negatively affect the refund process.

Proof Requirements for Parcel Receipt & Claims

1. In-Person Receipt
If the parcel is signed for in person by the recipient, it must be opened and inspected immediately at the time of delivery.
If any abnormality is found, including but not limited to damaged outer packaging, missing items, empty parcel, or incorrect contents, the recipient must:

  • Clearly note the detailed issue on the delivery receipt, and

  • File a complaint with the delivery courier on the spot.

The recipient may choose to refuse the shipment or accept it as a problematic delivery.

2. Non-In-Person Receipt (Parcel Left at Doorstep)
If the parcel is left at the delivery address without face-to-face handover, the recipient must record a complete, clear, and unedited unboxing video immediately upon discovering the parcel.

The video must clearly show:

  • All six sides of the outer carton,

  • The shipping label / tracking information,

  • The entire unboxing process without interruption, and

  • The final condition of the contents inside the package.

3. Obtaining Official Carrier Documentation
Regardless of the delivery method, once loss or damage is confirmed, the recipient must file an official claim within 24 hours with the last-mile carrier responsible for delivery (such as UPS, FedEx, etc.) and obtain an official investigation or claim document with a valid Claim Number for loss or damage.

4. Suspected Theft (Empty Parcel Confirmed)

If the recipient confirms that the parcel was received empty and there is clear evidence of theft, the recipient must report the incident to the local police immediately.
Please submit both the police report number and the carrier claim/complaint number to our customer service team at service@gmktec.com for further assistance.

Important Notice
Failure to provide evidence at any of the above stages — including but not limited to no immediate inspection, no valid unboxing video, or inability to provide an official Claim Number — will result in the inability to initiate claims with the carrier or insurance provider.
In such cases, no compensation or claim can be processed.
