What do you get with this service?
Replacement of the capacitors of your Game Gear which are notorious for leaking and causing audio and video problems. This service will reaplace the main board, power board and audio board capacitors of any of the version of the Game Gear. In the process of doing this we will also clean any leakage of the old capacitors.
The replacement capacitors are included within the service.
What you don’t get with this service
This is not a repair service from a completely dead console. Please ensure your Game Gear shows at least a red light when turned on. No video or bad video or audio could be a symptom of bad capacitors and will probably be resolved with the recap provided in this service. But not power at all is likely due to a different underlying problem.
It is also possible that only recapping the console might still give some audio or video problems. If this happens and we are unable to get the console running normally, we will approach you with options, such as replacing the audio or power boards.
Shipping
You are responsible for shipping the system in adequate packaging to our address. An email will be sent to you after purchase with some suggestions about how to do this as well as shipping details. The cost of you shipping your system to us is not included in the price of the service.
The shipping we do charge for this service is to send the console back to you when the service is finished. To the extent possible, we will use the same packaging material you used to send the system to us in the first place. We will replace packaging material if it is damaged when we receive it at no cost to you.
