These guys are doing it right. Exactly what you hope for in a local business…read more I found DC through a Facebook group when I asked for computer repair rec's. Checked out their website, then gave them a call about cleaning up my Mac before my vacation. I put it off to the last minute and wasn't sure they could help. Luckily, they could help me, and the rush fee was $100. I love that fact they picked up the phone and it wasn't some dead doornail employee who could care less about my computer issue. Chris, the owner, actually answered the phone. He said to bring it down. I came in that same day and he told me they would: clean it up, install new OS, remove junk, and speed it up overall. He quoted me end of the week, but it was ready sooner, so happy about because it would be ready for vacation. Total came out to about $430 with the rush fee. It's been about 6 weeks now and my computer is running amazing, so fast! They also have refurbished Macs for sale, which I'll be back for when my current computer stops working. Super 5 Stars for DC Computers! They care about their business and customers. So glad I found them.

Dan and his team immediately put my nerves at ease. I brought in the laptop I use for work, and Dan understood the priority level right away. Not only did they fix the issue faster than expected, but the cost was far lower than I had imagined. As someone who has a small business, seeing their attention to detail was inspiring, it actually makes me want to be a better expert in my own field! They treated me like a local because they are locals and residents who have been serving San Diego for 10 years. If you need a repair or a new computer, go see them. I'll definitely be back!

What can I say about Geeks Candy Shop.....This is the best place in San Diego to pick up…read moresurplus/used Computers, Tablets, and parts!!!!! The customer service is outstanding and they bend over backwards to take care of you. I went in looking to build a home NAS and we decided on an older Dell Power Edge tower machine. We loaded it up with additional ram, hard drives, and an ssd boot drive. They tested and fought with it to get make sure everything was detected in the bios (the whole process took about 1.5 hours) and I went home with my new to me machine. Unfortunately when I got home and tried installing Truenas Core it kept hanging up during the install process (I even tried using Unraid and still no luck). The next day I gave them a call and was told to bring it back in. I got there a little after 4pm (they close at 5pm) and we proceeded to look for another machine that would fit my needs. After trying out a few options we ended up putting together a custom setup out of the parts they had in stock. They stayed open 40 minutes late to make sure I was taken care of and even gave me a discount on the upgrades. If you are in need of an affordable PC, Tablet, or just need to grab some parts to build or upgrade your existing computer......Geeks Candy Shop is the best place in town to go!!!!!!!

They proceeded to fix it again and now it is quiet literally saving my life and business.

Not what I expected…read more I use to go to this Best Buy all the time when I was stationed here. It had all the electrical items I needed in the past and today was shock day. Something I never believed I would see. They got Legos. And not the cheap sets but sets you would find at an actual toy store. I was impressed. Anyway back to the point, they have a good selection of electronics and still carry some CDs. Overall four stars. It's the typical BB but this one has Legos ;)

I had plenty of time to look the washer over and decided that it was what I wanted. I searched for an associate and came upon Chad. He was outgoing and was so helpful. He made the purchase easy and helped me set up a delivery and installation date. He also answered all of the question I had. I was thankful for his kind assistance. On delivery day, the Best Buy app informed me of the time frame the delivery team would be by to install the new washer. Upon arrival, the delivery team iset everything up quickly and efficiently. They removed the old washer and the delivery and installation was complete. Overall, I was pleased with the service provided by Best Buy.

We received a TV just 1.5hrs ago from an online order, upon unboxing I noticed the tv was scratched and dented and full of grime, same with the remote. When I plugged it in - The screen was destroyed. Not to mention the other TV we got in the batch was open box and missing the legs and remote and we had to come here twice to get an exchange. Really ABSOLUTELY EXHAUSTING. Instead of assuming responsibility for an obvious box switch, Ricky refused to help me. Instead I was looked at stone cold faced like I'm trying to pull a fast one on a f****** $89 tv. I spent more in gas and time to come here on my lunch I make $75/hr so what the fuck incentive do I have to swap out cheap TVs? Absolutely disrespectful, and yes I was VERY impolite after being treated like this. They came up apprehensive as soon as they unboxed the TV. Have some accountability, that's why your brand is dying and Amazon is taking the pie. F*** you Ricky. The audacity to treat someone like that, I won't give any Best Buy another dime. WORST BUY.
