Preorder Information

A preorder involves placing an order for an item in order to inform production planning. This purchasing approach enables us to offer various colors by producing only the required number of units based on preorder quantities. The estimated shipping time frame will be indicated on the product page for each specific item.

The projected delivery windows for each item, which vary due to different production timelines, will be posted on the product page. Please be aware that deliveries to Alaska and Hawaii, and any countries outside of the United States, might experience slightly longer transit times.

Return and Exchange Information

Because products are made to order, we can only accept cancellation requests for 24 hours after your order has been placed. To request an order cancellation, please email contact@modretro.com.

Returns will only be accepted if the original packaging is unopened. Returns lacking appropriate documentation, packaging, and/or materials cannot be processed. ModRetro does not authorize returns of damaged products. Items for return must be received in their original condition before a replacement or refund can be arranged. Preorders are ineligible for returns. If you encounter order issues such as defects or incorrect items, please contact us at returns@modretro.com

Once packaging and condition are verified, allow 5-7 business days for the refund to be processed. Return shipping costs are the responsibility of the customer.

Please be aware that returns which are opened or lacking proper documentation, packaging, and/or materials cannot be accommodated and will result in the recycling of your device without a refund being granted.
