What is the estimated shipping time?
If you have requested and are eligible for an Advanced Warranty Replacement (AWR), your replacement product ships the same day as the request. If you requested a Standard Warranty Request (SWR), your replacement product ships after your returned product is inspected for physical damage. Shipping times vary by region and are impacted by factors such as customs clearance, local shipping conditions, and availability of replacement parts. Once your product ships, the carrier sends you the tracking number.
