Mail-in service — your own controller
Send your own Model 1914 controller. Place your Shopify order, then receive private mailing instructions. Your shipping address is the return address. U.S. mail-in service only.
Every order is manually invoiced through Square, separate from Shopify. Physical products ship after invoice payment; mail-in repairs are invoiced after completion and returned after payment. Mixed orders are allowed. You pay inbound mail-in shipping; successful initial repair return shipping is included in the service price and paid by Outsource Repairs. If repair fails before payment, only return shipping is invoiced and the device returns after that charge is paid; if repair payment was collected, it is refunded minus return shipping. No unsuccessful repair/service charge applies unless other work is separately authorized. Warranty shipping is separate; customers pay both directions unless separately approved.
