GamersNexus Modmat Warranty

GamersNexus prides itself on focusing on quality and consumer support above all else, and has stayed true to its values since it started in ~2008. This started on our website with written articles and transferred to video, where we have slowly but continuously worked towards improving as we add new test and content categories. That ethos has grown with our store as well, and while we are still learning many of the facets of manufacturing, we have been making Modmats since about 2016 (mass production since 2017) and have become well-acquainted with the process.

This warranty applies retroactively as of August 11, 2022. Any purchases prior to this date will also receive this warranty policy. Our aggressive customer-focused policies even include coverage of some user-caused accidental damage affecting product functionality. Please email support@gamersnexus.net with photos (required) and details regarding the damage or defects for which you are seeking help. Please include your Order #. The photos and order # are required to prevent abuse of the warranty. We will ask a few questions to best understand the situation.

Please note that we also have a return policy and return window detailed here (in addition to the warranty). Defects, missing items, or damage from shipment can also be addressed outside of the warranty guidelines by simply using the standard return policy.

NOTE: Our printed paper Modmat Manuals note details on a previous warranty (shorter and less detailed). The warranty on this page supersedes and overrides those.

  • We guarantee that the work surface itself will remain within its Anti-Static Conductive (10^1 to 10^5 ohms resistivity) or Anti-Static Dissipative (10^4 to 10^10 ohms resistivity) spec for surface resistivity, depending on product and methods

How Long Does This Warranty Last?

This warranty lasts for 7 years from the original purchase date. The warranty is non-transferable and exclusively for the original purchaser. This warranty terminates if you sell, transfer, or dispose of your product. The “original purchaser” is the individual who bought the product directly from GamersNexus and not with intent to resell. Any repair or replacement will not extend the original period of the limited warranty, nor will it constitute the beginning of a new limited warranty period.

In the event that the product is no longer manufactured and sold by GamersNexus, LLC, a suitable replacement will be offered from its current products or an alternate solution.

How Do I Use The Warranty?

To get service under this warranty, promptly notify GamersNexus, LLC by emailing support@gamersnexus.net to retrieve additional instructions relating to replacing, exchanging, or repairing the warranted product. Please include your order ID or invoice to expedite things, along with a description of the issue and photos of the issue. You may be asked to undertake additional steps to troubleshoot the issue or determine whether this warranty applies, or to fix the issue remotely with assistance from our team, if applicable. For example, re-attaching a stud that has fallen off can be done by the end user and without replacement, so this would be a scenario where (even outside of warranty period), we would be happy to provide assistance and guidance via the support email. Meanwhile, a manufacturing defect may be determined best resolved by a replacement of the affected item.

Any warranted product must be accompanied by proof of purchase, e.g. an order number, so that we may assist further.

For any warranted product authorized to be returned to GamersNexus in accordance with this warranty, GamersNexus will repair or replace the warranted product, or any part thereof, in its sole discretion. GamersNexus reserves the right to determine a product unfit for warranted coverage for a product which does not meet the above conditions. GamersNexus support is available at support@gamersnexus.net and would be happy to assist with any GN store-related support issues.
