The R36S costs A$79 with a 64GB card or A$89 with a 128GB card, in AUD with GST included. Delivery is free. The rest of the R36 range is on the R36 collection page.

Buying here means AUD pricing with GST included at checkout, and consumer protection under Australian Consumer Law.

We offer competitive pricing with free shipping across Australia on every order, with no minimum spend. All prices include GST with no hidden costs at checkout.

How long does R36S delivery take in Australia?

Dispatch: orders are handed to the carrier within 1–2 business days of payment.

Delivery across Australia: typically 7–10 days from order to delivery. That range comes from our own tracked delivery records, not a marketing figure.

Regional and remote areas can take longer, and customs checks or peak periods occasionally push delivery toward three weeks. We ship to all Australian postcodes, including PO Boxes.

Every order ships with a tracking number, emailed once the carrier collects the parcel. The first scan can take 2–5 days to appear — that is normal.

Do I pay customs or GST on top?

No. GST is included in the price you see, and there are no customs charges or extra fees on delivery. Orders under A$1,000 are not charged duty at the border; the GST on them is collected at checkout, which is why it is already in our price.

Your rights under the Australian Consumer Law apply to every order, whichever way it is shipped.

Setting up the R36S

Charge it over USB-C with any Australian USB charger or power bank before first use. Then follow our firmware setup guide: it takes about twenty minutes, and moving the system to a quality microSD card first prevents most boot problems.

For Australian-specific setup, we recommend setting the timezone to your capital city (AEST, ACST, or AWST) in the system settings. This ensures save files and RetroAchievements timestamps are correct.

Both PAL and NTSC versions of a game run, so you can use the regional versions of games you own.

What warranty and returns do I get?

Every order has a 30-day money-back guarantee: 30 days from delivery to return it for any reason. On top of that, the Australian Consumer Law guarantees a repair, replacement or refund for faulty goods, and those rights cannot be excluded. If an item arrives faulty, damaged or incorrect, we cover the return postage. Details are in our refund policy.

For setup help, troubleshooting or a return, contact us with your order number.
