Micro Center Online will gladly receive any merchandise you would like to return, provided it meets the guidelines in our Return Policy. You can return merchandise by shipping it to our Distribution Center, or by taking it to your local Micro Center Store.

For all returns, you must first contact Customer Service

Regardless of how you want to return merchandise, you first must contact Customer Service to obtain an RMA (Return Merchandise Authorization) Number. When you call, you will need to provide the Customer Support Representative with:

• Order Number
• SKU Number of each product
• Name or Description of each product
• Nature of the problem

After the Customer Support Representative has taken the necessary information, he or she will process it and provide you with an RMA Number. No returns will be accepted without an RMA Number.

After you have obtained your RMA Number, follow the steps below to return the merchandise.

Return by Shipping

1. Pack the item securely in the original packaging. Include all contents of the original package such as manuals, discs, cables, etc. If all contents are not included, you may be charged an Open Box fee as described in the Return Policy.
2. In the package, place a copy of the packing list that came with your order. Keep the original packing list for your records. If you do not have the packing list, you will need to include the following information:
   
   • Order Number
   • Billing Name
   • Billing Address
     
3. Ship your return to our Distribution Center. We recommend the Postal Service, UPS or Federal Express. All shipping charges must be prepaid and the shipment must be insured for the full value of the merchandise being returned.
