Special Order items (items which are not currently stocked either by ATIC or its distributors in Canada) have no definitive estimated timeframes to order (typically 2-4 weeks, but in some cases much longer), and the pricing will be based on the last known market price, which may change dramatically between when the order is placed and when the item comes in. Please note that placing an order for a special order item requires your acknowledgment of these issues, and that, once placed, special order items can only be canceled upon agreement by ATIC and ATIC's distributors.
Your old computer equipment goes directly into our volunteer programs. Even while it's being evaluated, people are learning to identify computer parts. Reuseable hardware furnishes computers for volunteers and non-profits. If your equipment has to be recycled, we'll do it as locally and sustainably as possible.
