"Must Be Purchased With Hardware"
The "must be purchased with hardware" precept is mandated by the software publisher. In accordance, Mac Business Solutions customers must purchase some type of product which falls under the general category of computer hardware in order to purchase applicable software. Hardware is classified as any component that will be used when assembling a computer system (a hard drive, motherboard, processor and a floppy drive are all examples of merchandise that will qualify). There is no specific or set price the hardware has to be, merely that there is some sort of eligible hardware present in the order itself.
Return Policy
All merchandise, unless otherwise indicated, may be returned within 15 days from the original invoice date for a refund providing the package is unopened or the product is defective. A return authorization is required for all returns. There will be a 15% restocking fee on any product. Customers must inform Mac Business Solutions of any order discrepancy within 15 days from the invoice date so that we may investigate and resolve the situation accordingly.
Under no circumstances Mac Business Solutions will accept returns on custom-built computers.
Physical Damage Policy
Physical damage to any product purchased at Mac Business Solutions will effectively void warranty coverage. Improper Installation of CPU fans and/or improper clocking may cause CPUs to chip. CPUs that are chipped, burnt or have bent pins are considered physically damaged and cannot be returned for refund or replacement. Physical damage includes but is not limited to improper handling and/or any other type of damage sustained by irregular usage. Mac Business Solutions encounters bent pins regularly when inspecting physically damaged CPUs. Forcing a processor into position will not solve an installation problem and may consequently void any applicable warranty coverage. Intel and AMD will not accept physically damaged processors back from Mac Business Solutions. As a result, Mac Business Solutions will return any physically damaged CPU back to the customer at the customer's expense.
Technical Support
Mac Business Solutions does offer email and phone technical assistance. We offer advice on compatibility of items, make product recommendations, and provide sales advice. We post all of the information the manufacturer provides us with for your convenience. Please contact us directly for accurate answers to your technical questions, additional information, or specifications that are not posted at Mac Business Solutions.

A Sales Order number will be issued at the Order Confirmation screen just as if you were placing a conventional order, but your credit/debit card will not be charged until your pre-ordered product is in stock and ready to ship. If you purchase an in-stock item along with a pre-order item, you will be charged accordingly for the available product and the difference when your pre-ordered item is in stock and ready for shipment. In this instance, two Sales Order numbers will be issued; one for the in-stock merchandise and one for the pre-ordered merchandise. You will be kept up-to-date via our website and through standard Order Status emails to your account.
Back-orders
Mac Business Solutions does not sell backordered merchandise. We will never purposely charge a customer for an item that we do not physically have in stock at the time of purchase. Occasional inventory discrepancies may occur due to inaccurate inventory counts or possibly because the last few items on our shelves are damaged and/or not in a condition that we can in good faith sell to a customer. In that instance we will refund your credit/debit card for the item, along with any applicable tax fees and shipping charges.
