A Detailed Guide to the Best Buy Video Game Return Policy

Have you bought a new video game from Best Buy only to realize that it's not everything you thought it would be? Getting to know the terms of the Best Buy video game return policy can be time-consuming, but that doesn't mean you have to give up on your refund. Signing up for DoNotPay will simplify the return process and help you get your money back in no time!

What Is the Best Buy Video Game Return Policy?

Best Buy offers returns for video games bought both online and in store. You can send back an unwanted game within 30 days of the purchase date—as long as it is unopened and in excellent condition.

An opened video game is not eligible for a refund, but you can always exchange the product for another game equal in value.

How To Return a Best Buy Video Game

If your video game is eligible for a return, you can start the process in two ways:

1. Via mail
2. In person

Return a Video Game to Best Buy via Mail

You can return video games purchased online via mail by following these steps:

1. Visit the Orders page
2. Find your order—Depending on whether you have a Best Buy account or not, you can do it by:
   1. Signing in and choosing Order Details to locate your unwanted video game
   2. Entering the order number, last name, and phone number if you used a guest account
3. Select the See Return Options button
4. Choose the video game you want to return
5. Click the Print Prepaid Label button

You can place the return label on your return package. Ship the video game back to Best Buy through an authorized UPS location.

If you have multiple video games to send back, you will need to repeat the process for each return—because every item must have its own return label.

Best Buy will process your return within seven to ten business days. Depending on your bank’s processing time, your return can take up to seven days to appear on your account.

Best Buy Video Game Return Policy for In-Person Returns

If you’re the type of person who prefers to handle returns in person, you can do so at any Best Buy store. You can find a location near you by using the Best Buy Store Locator tool. The company will accept video games purchased on its website or at any Best Buy store. Bring the following items to make sure the return process goes smoothly:

• The receipt or packing slip—depending on where you made your purchase
• A valid photo ID

If you lost your receipt, you could still prove your purchase by providing an email address.

How Will You Get Your Refund?

Best Buy usually issues refunds using the original payment method.

When it comes to in-store returns, Best Buy only offers contactless debit and credit card refunds. You can get your refund on a debit card—or in the form of a gift card—if you originally paid in cash.

If you have any questions about your refund, you can get in touch with a Best Buy customer service agent.
