Adelaide to Charlestown, and back
The workshop is at 193 Pacific Highway, Charlestown NSW 2290, in the Newcastle area. That is about 1,520 km by road from Adelaide, so nobody is driving a console over for a repair, and you do not need to. Adelaide to Newcastle is an interstate Australia Post lane. Your console crosses into New South Wales and comes back the same way, insured and tracked both directions. The postage speeds in the table are Australia Post's published interstate figures, not ours. Interstate parcels move on a wider range than same-state ones, which is why we quote ranges instead of one best-case number.
| Tier | Postage each way (Australia Post) | Door-to-door | Extra |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard | Parcel Post, 3 to 6 business days | 3 to 8 business days | $0 |
| Express Post | Express Post, 1 to 3 business days. Workshop starts within 24 hours of arrival | 2 to 4 business days | +$49 |
| Express Workshop | Express Post Platinum both ways, same-day in the workshop (in by 11am, out by 5pm) | 1 to 3 business days | +$129 |
Shipping is a flat $100 both ways, fully insured, added to your invoice only if you approve the repair. Every tier includes the 3-month workmanship warranty. Postage speeds are Australia Post's published figures; next-business-day Express Post applies inside its network only, which is why we quote ranges.
The faults we see most, wherever they are posted from: PS5 HDMI port, PS5 won't turn on, PS5 white light, PS5 disc drive, controller stick drift, Xbox Series X won't turn on, Nintendo Switch repairs. Every one of them is a fixed price with photos before you pay.
Adelaide postcodes 5000 to 5174 are listed inside Australia Post's next-business-day Express Post network, which runs between capital cities and some major centres. Darwin is left out of that network and Perth only gets CBD delivery, so Adelaide is well placed by comparison. Next-day only applies inside the network, so plan on the interstate ranges in the table and treat anything faster as a bonus. Stick the prepaid label we email you on the box and drop it at a Post Office in Adelaide.
Adelaide questions, answered
How long does mail-in console repair from Adelaide take?
From Adelaide the postage takes 4-5 business days each way. Repairs are usually completed within same calendar day if in by 11am, else within 24 hours. Total turnaround is typically 3-8 business days door-to-door.
How much does it cost to ship my console from Adelaide?
A padded Australia Post satchel is covered — we email you a prepaid, insured label upfront. We send your repaired console back via Express Post — included in the flat $100 insured shipping on every approved repair.
What if my console can't be fixed?
We give you an honest answer either way. If you take the device back without a repair, it's our standard $88 service fee plus postage — or we'll offer trade-in credit instead.
Do you offer a warranty?
Yes — every repair comes with a 3-month workmanship warranty. If the same fault returns at any point we'll fix it free and cover return postage.
Is Adelaide inside the Express Post next-business-day network?
On Australia Post's published list, yes. Adelaide postcodes 5000 to 5174 and 5800 to 5950 sit in the next-business-day Express Post network. Australia Post still quotes interstate Express Post at 1 to 3 business days, and next-day only applies inside the network, so we quote 2 to 4 business days door-to-door on the Express Post tier. If it lands sooner, good.
Do I need to drive the console to Newcastle?
No. Adelaide to Newcastle is about 1,520 km by road, roughly 16 hours behind the wheel. The label we email is prepaid and insured, so drop the parcel at a Post Office in Adelaide and keep the tracking number. Shipping is a flat $100 both ways, added to the invoice only if you approve the repair.
Does my console leave South Australia?
Yes. It crosses into New South Wales to our Charlestown workshop in the Newcastle area, then comes back on the same lane. It is insured and tracked both ways. You get photos and a fixed quote within 24 hours of it arriving, and nothing is done until you approve. If it cannot be fixed, we offer a free trade-in (cash or 1.3x store credit) or mail it back.
