We can certainly upgrade your insurance or shipping speed options, or even ship using another courier such as UPS, but with these non-standard options you'll have to get in touch with us (check our Contacts page) for a price quote. We will try to get back to you with the information as quickly as possible.

 

Christmas Holidays

Please allow yourself extra time in December as the postal system tends to slow down; a few extra days may be required to get your ordered items to you.

 

Orders

All items must be paid in full before GeekStop Games will process and deliver your merchandise. Methods of payment include: VISA, MasterCard, AMEX, Discover and PayPal. All transactions are processed through PayPal as a payment gateway. As such, GeekStop Games does not store or have access to your credit card information.

When you proceed to checkout, you will be redirected to PayPal to select your payment option. If you do not have a PayPal account, not to worry! You can simply choose to proceed with the checkout process as a guest.

 

Canadian Currency

All prices and sales are in Canadian dollars. If you are using an American credit card, the exchange rate will be based on the credit card company. The current rate of exchange can change daily, and the credit card company's exchange rate can as well.

 

Pre Orders / Special Orders

Pre orders are items that can be ordered that have not been released yet, while special orders are items that have been released but are currently out of stock. If your order contains any items that are pre orders or special orders, you will see the message: *Order contains pre / special ordered items. This order will be shipped once all items are available.

Your entire order will not ship until all items are in stock. All of the games that are currently in stock that you have ordered will be held until the remaining items are available. You will be charged for the entire order at the time the order is placed.

If you feel that a particular item is taking too long to arrive, you may contact us to remove the unshipped items from the order. A small surcharge may be applied (withheld from the refund) if the pre order/special order is not cancelled within 60 days of the original order date.

If removing the items does not affect the shipping fee, you will receive a full refund. If removing the items reduces the order total below the free shipping threshold, we will withhold the difference from the refund for shipping the remaining games.

GeekStop Games does not list estimated release dates. You may contact us regarding these dates but they are provided by the publishers and are subject to change at any time. It is not uncommon for game releases to be delayed. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

 

Returns

GeekStop Games will accept returns of unopened merchandise within 30 days of the purchase date. The game(s) must be in the original shrink wrap and undamaged, otherwise it is not acceptable for refund. Customers are responsible for shipping costs on any returns, and will be refunded the purchase price along with any sales tax. Original shipping charges will not be refunded. Because GeekStop Games uses flat-rate and free shipping options (often shipping orders below our cost), GeekStop Games reserves the right to refund less money to the customer in order to cover the cost incurred while shipping the original order. No refunds will be issued for items received damaged due to poor packing by the customer. If the problem is a game that has missing or damaged game components, please see below.

 

Damaged or Missing Components

GeekStop Games cannot be held responsible for games with damaged or missing components; this can often be traced back to the publishing level. The publishers typically provide VERY good customer service and are quick to replace missing or damaged components. Each game's publisher can be found as a link on individual game pages. However, if you require assistance, contact us and we can help you with contacting the publisher.
