Parts
I do not act as a middleman and sell you marked-up parts and systems. Instead, I will show you where I shop for myself! Should you choose to purchase a system or parts suggested to you, I will act as your personal shopper using a long-standing online retailer known as Newegg to get you some of the best prices and selections possible. Shipping time averages 2-3 business days. If you need your purchase immediately, or otherwise would rather not make a purchase online, a local retailer is the next alternative. During on-site service, I will remain on the clock, and gladly visit (or accompany you to) your preferred local retailer for items needed. During in-shop service, I will gladly make a trip to the closest local retailer, and purchase the items your computer needs (minimum travel fee of $15/trip during in-shop service).
You will be charged only what I paid for the parts, rounded to the nearest dollar amount (plus travel, if applicable). You will receive a copy of the retailer's receipts as well. Price and selection will vary between Newegg.com and any local retailer.
Travel and Access Fees
To help offset the costs of gas, driving time, and vehicle wear, travel fees are charged for all visits I make out of my shop. Please note that any fees paid to access your location (parking, toll roads, etc) will also be added to your total. Travel and access fees are charged regardless of service outcome and are not refundable.
Payment Policy
Stealth Computer Services accepts payment in the form of Cash or Check only. Please make all checks payable to "Stealth Computer Services". All checks must be accompanied by valid, government-issued photo ID. Payment for services, products and purchases will be due in full immediately when the job is completed.
