Micro Center Price Adjustment Policy

Micro Center offers price protection when it lowers the price of an item during that product's return period. Bring the purchase information and the same card used for payment to a local Micro Center store to request the difference.

Owed money you didn’t know about?

Micro Center price adjustments are just one way to get money back. Payout finds class action settlements you qualify for — many with no proof of purchase — and files in minutes. 100% free.

What is a price adjustment?

The adjustment window follows the return period for the product you bought, so the number of days can vary by item. The official policy directs customers to handle the request at a local Micro Center store with the purchase details and original payment card.

Micro Center also matches many major retailers and manufacturer websites before purchase. The competing item must have the same model number or UPC and be in stock under the retailer's published rules. Payout helps people find money-saving policies but cannot guarantee that Micro Center will approve a request.
