Building a desk from one brand usually starts with a spreadsheet: a keyboard here, a mouse there, a headset from whichever overseas seller shows the right colour. It can work, but every extra seller adds a parcel to track and a return address abroad. For South African buyers weighing buy locally vs import, the AULA range at Evetech offers a simpler route: one order, one local team and one place to take a claim.

Quick Answer

A single local order keeps every claim in South Africa with Evetech. The AULA WIN68, HERO and AG75 magnetic keyboards carry 2 Years Local Warranty, and every other AULA product carries 1 Year Local Warranty. Piecing a desk together from overseas sellers means separate deliveries, separate return processes and, if something fails, a claim that may have to be posted abroad. Those magnetic keyboards range from R449 for the WIN68 HE to R2,799 for the Armor Silver AG75 Pro at Evetech.

📦 What "piecing it together" really involves

Ordering each part from a different overseas seller looks efficient on screen. In practice, a four-piece desk becomes four transactions, and each one runs on its own rules.

Separate deliveries

Every seller ships on its own timetable. The keyboard lands in one week, the headset a fortnight later and the pad whenever its parcel clears. You cannot use the desk as planned until the slowest part turns up, and a single lost parcel leaves a gap in the setup.

Separate rules at the border

Parcels coming into South Africa can attract import charges and handling fees, and the rules depend on what is being shipped and what the paperwork declares. Those costs are easy to forget when comparing listings. If you import, check the current requirements with SARS and your courier before you buy, not after the parcel is held.

Separate returns

This is the part people underestimate. If a keyboard turns up with a dead key, the overseas seller's process decides what happens next, and it often means packing it up and posting it back across the world at your own effort. Multiply that by four sellers and the saving on paper starts to look thin.

🛡️ How the warranty splits across an AULA desk

Buying the range locally puts the whole desk under one set of terms, handled in South Africa. The split is simple once you know which products are magnetic keyboards.

Two years. The nine magnetic boards: the WIN68 HE and WIN68 MAX, the HERO 75 HE in black, orange and green, the HERO 84 HE, and the AG75 Pro and AG75 Ultra editions.

One year. Everything else AULA makes in the range: the F99 Max, L99 and F87 Pro V2 screen keyboards, the S102 PRO office board, the SC900 MAX, SC800 MAX, SC620 Contour and SC590 Pro mice, the MP-XL pad, the A500, A600 and G7 headsets, and the AC306 keyboard and mouse set.

There is no brand-wide two-year promise, so check which group each item falls into when you plan the desk. The point for a local buyer is that both groups are claimed through Evetech rather than an overseas storefront.

🧩 Putting a full AULA desk into one order

A complete setup needs four things, and the range covers each.

A keyboard. For competitive play, a magnetic board: the compact 65% WIN68, the 75% HERO boards with their 36-LED light box, or the CNC aluminium AG75 with 0.001mm Rapid Trigger. The HERO 75 HE is the tri-mode one; the WIN68, HERO 84 HE and AG75 connect by cable. For a desk that is more about looks and features, the L99 carries a 3.98-inch touchscreen and the F87 Pro V2 a dot-matrix display that shows live audio.

A mouse. The SC900 MAX with its swappable 400mAh cell and up to 30,000 DPI, the 48g SC800 MAX, the SC620 Contour with RGB through a honeycomb shell, or the SC590 Pro with a small display for battery, DPI and mode.

A surface. The MP-XL is 900 x 400 x 3mm, room for a full keyboard and a mouse on one Speed-type fabric surface.

A headset. The A500 for hybrid ANC up to 38dB, the A600 for 53mm drivers and up to 110 hours of battery, or the G7 for an AI noise-cancelling mic.

Colourways share their family's terms, so the orange HERO 75 HE is covered exactly like the black one. You can browse the keyboard side of the range alongside other brands in Evetech's peripheral best sellers and find the pad among the gaming mouse pads. Each price sits on its product page at Evetech.

🤝 What one brand, one order does and does not give you

It is worth being straight about the limits. Buying everything from one brand does not link the devices into a single ecosystem. The product pages list no shared lighting app across the range, so the HERO light box, the SC620 Contour's shell and the G7's soft RGB are set one by one. Drivers differ too: the magnetic keyboards use AULA's browser-based driver, while the SC620 Contour has its own AULA mouse driver.

What one local order does give you is less admin. One delivery to track, one order number, one place to ask a question, and one team handling every claim whatever the product. For a desk you plan to use daily for years, that simplicity is the real reason to keep it local.

One practical habit makes the most of it. Save the invoice as a PDF the day the order lands, note which items sit in the two-year group and which in the one-year group, and keep the original boxes for a few weeks while you test every key, button and connection mode. A dead switch or a crackle in one ear cup shows up early if you look for it, and reporting it quickly to a local team is far easier than arguing with a seller several time zones away.

Frequently Asked Questions

What changes when the whole desk is covered locally?

A fault is dealt with in South Africa instead of being posted back to an overseas seller, and the whole desk sits with one team.

Do imported parcels cost more than the listing shows?

They can. Import charges and courier handling fees may apply, so check the current rules with SARS and your courier before ordering.

What should I keep after ordering?

The invoice and order number. One local order means one set of papers covers the whole desk when you need to log a claim.

Does buying all-AULA link the lighting together?

No shared app is listed, so each device's lighting is set on its own.

Are all AULA keyboards wireless?

No. The HERO 75 HE is tri-mode, while the WIN68, HERO 84 HE and AG75 are wired boards.

Does the colour I choose change the warranty?

No. Colourways carry the same term as the rest of their family.
