Some electronics on ForgeGrid may occasionally be offered with pre-order, backorder, allocation, or delayed dispatch timing when supplier availability requires it.
How pre-orders work
Estimated timing
If a product is marked as pre-order, backorder, allocation, or delayed dispatch, the estimated dispatch window will be shown on the listing or confirmed by support.
Pre-order timelines are estimates and may change due to supplier timing, manufacturing changes, carrier capacity, customs review, or launch schedule changes.
Order confirmation
Payment or order confirmation may occur before dispatch depending on the product route and checkout handling.
Support may contact the customer if the estimated date changes materially or if a product becomes unavailable.
Changes, cancellation, and split shipping
Before dispatch
Customers may contact support before dispatch to review cancellation or change options.
Cancellation availability depends on supplier status, packing status, payment processing, and whether the order has already entered fulfillment.
Mixed orders
Mixed orders containing ready-to-ship and pre-order products may ship in separate parcels when ready dates differ.
Return and support handling after delivery follows the return policy unless the specific product listing states a narrower condition.
