Our Online Store Policies and Guidelines

All returns require an RMA (return merchandise authorization) number, which can be obtained by contacting our customer service department or clicking the “My Account” button in the top-right hand corner of our web page.

Please save all packaging and accessories for any item you return to our shop. All original equipment, components, manuals, cables, documents, and packaging must be returned with your item to process your RMA. Any item returned for a replacement may be repaired or replaced at our discretion unless otherwise required by law. Products with specific refund and return policies and deadlines must be returned within the periods specified for each item. All items we sell are subject to our online store policies and agreement. Physically damaged items cannot be returned. All returns for a refund are subject to a 15% restocking fee.

Removal or alteration of a product’s serial number or serial number sticker will disallow and automatically void access to our return policy. All products returned with a missing, damaged, or altered serial number will be refused RMA service, and the item will be sent back to the customer.

All returns require an RMA (Return Merchandise Authorization) number. All items returned for a refund are subject to a 15% restocking fee. Many manufacturers offer additional factory coverage. With regard to such, you should contact the manufacturer of your item directly for information regarding eligibility and specific terms and conditions.

Limited 30-Day Return Policy

Return for refund and replacements must be completed within 30 days.

Items covered by this policy — meaning products with policies that state “this item may be returned for a replacement or refund within 30 days only” must be returned within 30 days of the invoice date for this policy to apply. Additional coverage, if any, is provided solely by the product’s manufacturer, as indicated by such manufacturer.

Limited Non-Refundable 30-Day Return Policy

Returns for replacement must be completed within 30 days. Refunds are not applicable.

Products that state “This item is covered by our non-refundable 30-Day Return Policy,” or items labeled as “non-refundable” must be returned within 30 days of the invoice date for this policy to apply. Products covered by this online return policy may only be returned for a replacement of the same item.

Desktop PC, Notebook PC, and Netbook PC Return Policy

Returns for replacement of defective items only must be completed within 30 days. Refunds are not applicable.

Under this policy, all Desktop PCs/Notebook PCs/Netbook PCs are non-refundable, and this supersedes all other return policies. There are no exceptions to this policy. Any Desktop PCs/Notebook/Tablet PC that is deemed defective may be returned for a replacement within 30 days only, but a request for refund will not be granted.

If a Desktop PC/Notebook/Tablet PC is returned for a replacement, but no problems are found, the Desktop PC/Notebook/Tablet PC will be returned at your (the buyer’s) expense.

By confirming your order, you indicate your agreement with this online return policy.

A defective Desktop PC, Notebook PC, or Netbook PC that is returned for a replacement may be repaired or replaced at our discretion unless it is otherwise required by law. We strive to uphold our standard RMA processing time for these types of items. However, in some situations, the item must be sent to the manufacturer for repairs. Unfortunately, we cannot expedite the RMA repair process in these situations, as we must abide by the manufacturer’s established processing time. If you have a question regarding this return policy or a Desktop PC, Notebook PC, or Netbook PC RMA, please contact our customer service department.

Consumable Items Return Policy

Returns for replacement must be completed within 30 days, where the items must be sealed and unopened. Refunds are not applicable.

Consumable items are items such as printer ink and toner cartridges, CD/DVD media, paper products, etc. that are consumed once they are used. These items can be returned within 30 days of the invoice date only if the item is sealed and unopened in its original retail packaging. Consumable items are not eligible for RMA through our online RMA system. Please contact our customer service department via live chat, email, or phone for RMA information regarding consumable items.

Open-Box Items

Returns for replacement must be completed within 30 days, where the items must be sealed and unopened. Refunds are not applicable.

Our online shop often sells items that are listed as “open-box.” Because these items are sold at reduced prices, they bear this limited 15-day refund-only return policy. Such items can only be returned within 15 days of the applicable invoice date. HGNJ Shopping Mall cannot provide replacement services for these items, as their stock is limited. The entire risk as to the quality and performance of these items is with the buyer.

These items have been tested for functionality but may have superficial physical defects, including but not limited to scratches, dings, or dents. Should these items prove defective following their purchase, the buyer, not the manufacturer, distributor, or seller, assumes the entire cost of all necessary servicing or repairs, unless otherwise required by law. These items are not covered by a 30-day satisfaction guarantee.

If you purchase an open-box product, you will receive an OEM barebone item, meaning you will only receive the item itself. Accessories are not included with open-box products, even if the missing accessory is required for the item to function correctly.

Software Return Policy

Returns for retail software must be completed within 30 days, where the items must be unopened. Refunds for OEM software are not applicable. Returns for replacement of defective retail or OEM software must be completed within 30 days.

Opened retail or OEM software can only be returned for replacement, and replacement RMAs will only be honored if the returned software is defective or damaged. Retail boxed software may only be returned for a refund within 30 days of the invoice date if the packaging is unopened and factory sealed. No software returns will be accepted after 30 days.

OEM software is non-refundable once purchased and delivered. OEM versions are intended for system builders only and cannot be transferred to another PC once installed. Purchasers of this software are required to comply with the terms of the applicable system builder license, including responsibility for providing all end-user support.

Under not responsible for system and 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, before purchase.

Bulk Item Return Policy

Returns for refund are non-refundable. Returns for replacement are non-replaceable.

Bulk items include but not limited to large-size products such as air conditioners, home entertainment systems, and televisions 24 inches and larger cannot be returned for refund or replacement service. Therefore, you are urged to carefully examine the box your bulk item ships in before signing for the package. Should you observe any damage to the shipping box, or if the wrong product was sent, you must refuse delivery while the shipping courier is still on the premises. According to this return policy, the item will be returned to, and you will be refunded the full amount, including applicable shipping costs and tax.

If you determine upon inspection that the condition of the shipping box is satisfactory, an adult is required to sign the shipping courier’s release form to complete delivery. By signing this release, you are acknowledging and agreeing to our terms and conditions, understanding that you cannot return the television and that the condition of the delivery meets your expectations. After delivery, please read all included documentation and/or contact the manufacturer directly to determine applicable warranty coverage, if any.

Manufacturer’s Warranties

Returns for refund and returns for replacement are not applicable.

The HGNJ Shopping Mall does not offer any express warranties. However, many of our products are covered by manufacturers’ warranties.

Detailed manufacturer warranty information can also be obtained for free by contacting our customer service department. Please note that products in this category are non-refundable unless otherwise indicated.

Products that state “This item can be returned to the product manufacturer only” must be returned directly to the product manufacturer for repair or replacement unless otherwise required by law. For these items, the warranty policy provided by the product manufacturer explicitly requires that any returns, repairs, etc. be requested and processed directly by the consumer or “end-user” of the item.

Combo Specials

Combo specials include two items that must be purchased together to receive a discount. Combo items may be returned for replacement within our applicable return policy period. If a combo item is returned for a refund, the combo discount will be voided, and the discount amount will be deducted from the amount of the refund. (For example, if your combo discount was $5, and you return one of the combo items for a refund, the $5 will be deducted from your RMA refund amount.)

Out-of-Stock (Back-Order) Items

Sometimes, items are returned after the product has been discontinued. If the HGNJ Shopping Mall no longer carries an item sent for replacement, or if that item is out of stock, the item will be sent to our back-order RMA department. You will be notified via email with two options:

  • HGNJ Shopping Mall can send you a comparable replacement item.
