Console Repairs for Canberra, by Mail
We are not located in Canberra. Our workshop is in North Perth, WA — this page is about our mail-in service, which covers Canberra and the rest of ACT through Australia Post. Your device is repaired by the same hands as every local job and travels back to you tracked.
Canberra households post us a steady stream of Switch consoles and drifting Joy-Cons. Joy-Cons on their own travel in a padded envelope-sized satchel, which keeps the postage tiny.
The process is simple: book and pay online, choosing Post it in instead of a drop-off time. Once we confirm your order, you get the postal address and packing instructions by email. Lodge the parcel at any Canberra post office, and from there tracking covers both directions. Postage from Canberra typically runs three to six business days each way.
What Canberra customers post us
Controllers and Joy-Cons are the easiest: they fit a small satchel. Consoles need a sturdy box. Everything on the services list can be posted.

Mail in from Canberra: FAQs
Do you have a workshop in Canberra?
No — and we would rather say that plainly than imply otherwise. Every repair happens at our workshop in North Perth, WA. Canberra customers use the mail-in service: Australia Post carries your device both ways with tracking, and the repair work is identical to a local drop-off.
How long does a mail-in repair take from Canberra?
Postage from Canberra is typically three to six business days each way, and most repairs are completed within a day of the parcel arriving. As a rule of thumb, allow a week and a half door to door for standard repairs.
What does postage cost?
You pay normal Australia Post rates to send it to us (a controller travels in a small satchel for around $12, a console around $20 to $25). Return postage home is included in your booking total: $12 for a single controller or handheld, $20 for a console or any booking with more than one device.
Is the warranty the same as for local customers?
Identical: a 30-day parts and labour warranty on every repair, and for mail-in jobs it starts the day the parcel is delivered back to you, not the day we post it.
