Deposits placed are not refundable or transferrable. Orders can be cancelled prior to launch, however orders cancelled after launch may be subject to a flat 20% restocking fee. Store credit will be issued as per the amount paid less any restocking fee if applicable.

The customer may cancel his/her pre-order should he/she not wish to wait. Store credit will be issued as per the amount paid.

Price and Specifications

AV Electronics can only give an estimated price for the item prior to its launch. Specifications are based on information provided to AV Electronics at the time of pre-order.

The customer’s deposit is to confirm availability of initial stocks to him/her (as per queue order) and not as a confirmation of price and/or specifications.

Limit on Order Quantity

When the demand for a particular pre-order item is considered high, AV Electronics may limit the quantities allowed per customer so as to ensure initial stocks are available to other customers too.

Allocation of Initial Stocks

AV Electronics guarantees that initial stocks of the pre-ordered item will be firstly allocated to pre-order customers and according to their place in the queue. The customer’s place in the queue is defined by when he/she initially paid his/her pre-order deposit.

The customer will be contacted (namely mobile or house number given during his/her pre-order) when his/her order is available. The customer is required to complete the sale by paying the full amount due less his/her initial pre-order deposit within 2 days. If the customer fails to complete the sale within the allocated time, the customer will be deemed to have forfeited his/her place in the queue and AV Electronics reserves the right to offer the item to another customer in the queue.

If the customer cannot be contacted when his/her order is available and he/she has not responded to any message sent (sms, voicemail or email given during his/her pre-order) informing him/her of the order’s availability, then he/she will be deemed to have forfeited his/her place in the queue and AV Electronics reserves the right to offer the item to another customer in the queue.

The customer who has forfeited his/her place in the queue for the above reasons will be placed into the post-launch customer queue.
