Covered from day one.

Every machine we sell is backed three ways: a 30-day return window, a minimum one-year hardware warranty on every computer, and optional CPS plans that add accidental-damage protection for up to three years.

Days 1–30 · Returns

Thirty days to be sure.

Anything you buy from us — in the store or on Shop.ComputerOverhauls.com — can come back within 30 days. Here's the fine print, in plain sight.

Ordered Aug 1 Back in our hands by Aug 30

The 30-day window runs from the date the order is placed — and returns must be received by us, not just postmarked, within it. That includes items returned by mail.

Original condition, charger included

Items must come back in the same condition they were purchased in, along with the charger.

Restocking fees

Used items: none. Brand-new items that have been opened: 20%.

Two returns maximum

You're allowed a maximum of two returns — after that, all sales are final and returns can't be accepted for any reason.

Refunds, the original way

Refunds are issued back to the original payment method only.

Getting it back to us

Return it in store

Walk in whenever we're open — no appointment required. Online orders can be returned in store too.

Return it by mail

You cover the return shipping — we don't provide prepaid labels — and it must reach us by day 30. Ship it to:

Computer Overhauls 130 West 26th St New York, NY 10001

Before it ships back

  • Factory-reset the machine
  • Remove every account from the device
  • Pack the original charger

iCloud must be removed

A machine that's still signed in to an iCloud account can't be processed — remove it before the return, or no refund can be issued.

Year 1 · Standard warranty

One year, every machine.

Computer Overhauls provides a minimum one-year hardware warranty on all computers. What that looks like depends on the brand — here's the breakdown.

1 year

Apple · Lenovo · HP · Microsoft

Manufacturer's warranty stays valid

If your machine still has a manufacturer's warranty, it remains valid — and our full one-year warranty runs alongside it from the date of purchase. Computer Overhauls is not an authorized reseller for any brand.

1 year

All other computer brands

Dell, Alienware, Razer, Toshiba, Sony, Canon, Nikon, Leica, Nvidia, Asus, Acer and others

For these brands, manufacturer warranties aren't transferable — the Computer Overhauls one-year warranty is your coverage.

90 days

Everything else we sell

Non-computer items

All other items carry a 90-day Computer Overhauls warranty.

What the warranty covers

  • Normal hardware failure
  • Failed hard drives
  • Dead motherboards
  • Optical drive failures

What it doesn't

  • Batteries — they're consumable
  • Accidental damage, like broken screens or hinges
  • Liquid damage
  • Theft
  • Fire
Years 2–3 · CPS Accident Protection

When one year isn't enough.

We've partnered with Consumer Priority Service — a separate company that specializes in warranty service — to offer 2- and 3-year extended plans with accidental-damage coverage on most of what we sell.

Day 0

Purchase

Add a CPS plan to your item right where you add it to your cart — or any time in the first 30 days.

Days 1–30

We've got you

Our standard hardware warranty covers the machine, and it's your last window to add a CPS plan. Accidental damage isn't covered yet.

Day 31

CPS coverage begins

Hardware and accidental-damage protection kicks in — drops, spills, impact, and liquid, handled entirely by CPS.

Year 2 or 3

Coverage ends

Plans expire exactly two or three years from the initial purchase date.

The plan, in black and white

What CPS covers

  • 100% parts and labor
  • All normal hardware issues
  • Accidental damage — drops, spills, impact, liquid
  • Repair or replacement in 5 days or fewer
  • All repairs handled by CPS

What it never covers

Damage outside the plan

  • Intentional or willful damage
  • Misuse or neglect
  • Theft or loss
  • Drops from over 6 feet
  • Fire damage
  • Full immersion in water, or saltwater exposure
  • Use the manufacturer never intended
  • Natural disasters
  • Damage caused by an animal or pet

Also outside the plan

  • Items dead on arrival, failing in the first 30 days, or with pre-existing conditions
  • Accessories and consumable parts — batteries, ink cartridges, lenses, cables
  • Software issues of any kind
  • Fraudulently misrepresented items
  • Stolen or lost products

Accidental Coverage must appear on the original bill of sale alongside the covered product and must be registered. If the item already has a manufacturer's warranty, the CPS plan replaces it rather than stacking on top — while the manufacturer's warranty remains valid, CPS adds benefits like accidental-damage coverage. Refer to the plan contract for the complete list of terms and exclusions.

Claims go straight to CPS — Computer Overhauls doesn't perform warranty service or repairs on CPS plans.
The details

Every question, answered.

Straight answers on coverage windows, deductibles, and claims.

When does the warranty coverage start?

Coverage starts 31 days after the purchase date.

Can I add the CPS warranty at any time?

No. CPS warranties can only be added within the first 30 days of purchase.

What coverage is there for the first 30 days?

Computer Overhauls' standard hardware warranty protects the item for the first 30 days, until the CPS warranty takes effect. Accidental damage is not covered in the first 30 days.

When does the warranty expire?

The two-year warranty expires exactly two years from the initial purchase date. The three-year warranty expires exactly three years from the initial purchase date.

Is a CPS warranty in addition to the manufacturer's warranty?

No. If the item already has a manufacturer's warranty, the CPS warranty will replace it. While the manufacturer's warranty remains valid, the CPS warranty adds additional benefits, such as accidental damage coverage.

Can I transfer the Protection Plan to a new owner?

Yes! CPS warranties are transferable between owners.

Is my product covered if it's stolen or if I lose it?

Unfortunately, the CPS warranty does not cover lost or stolen products.

Is there a deductible?

No. There is no deductible.

Is there a deductible for laptop plans?

No. There is no deductible on laptop warranty plans.

Is there a deductible for cell phone plans?

Yes, there is a low deductible at the time of claim for cell phone plans:

  • $30.00 deductible applies to products between $100–$150
  • $50.00 deductible applies to products between $150–$250
  • $75.00 deductible applies to products over $250
What happens if my product breaks?

You can contact CPS directly to file a claim in three ways:

Do I return my item to Computer Overhauls for warranty service?

No. Computer Overhauls does not provide warranty service for CPS warranties. Contact CPS directly to file a claim.

If I purchase a CPS warranty, do I also have a warranty from Computer Overhauls?

No. The CPS warranty covers all hardware failure and provides accidental damage coverage for two or three years. CPS is an entirely separate company and will provide all warranty services. Computer Overhauls will not perform any warranty repairs on behalf of CPS.
