Returns...
notebookspares only orders and ships brand new items, likewise we take no goods back “into stock” from customers, this saves future customers money (stock sitting on shelves impacts the company’s cash flow, which has a cost that is normally transferred to the customers). It also ensures customers receive only brand new sealed items. Opened goods and goods fitted incorrectly(screens,keyboards etc) cannot be returned.

Once you order you are able to log into your notebookspares account and view the current order status. The following is what you can expect to see.

Orders placed outside of these times will only be checked and sent for approval on the next business day. If your order is declined by your bank a notice is sent to your specified email address and the order will remain in this status.
When declining orders the bank will not give us any reason, it is usually as a result of a card number, expiry date , CVV number, Name on card or billing address input error. If you believe this to be the case please re order ensuring all information is entered exactly.
