While it wasn't exactly cheap, they restored all of the files on the USB drive including the ones I had lost on my computer. That was great. Also, last year our computer was acting up and running slow so I brought it here. They did a scan of the hard drives and reformatted parts of the storage so that we had more free space (so our computer wouldn't crash every time we needed to do something) and removed some programs we didn't need (after consulting with us first). Again, great work!

I was forwarded to Geek Squad and was told I would need to purchase a service contract (~$250) for them to be able to help me. I tried to call Best Buy and could only get their virtual assistant. I was never able to speak with a human. I went to the store on Sunday morning to return a computer monitor. Customer service told me that because it was a third-party sale I would need to return it myself. I went on-line and the order did say it was a third-party purchase from New Egg. It also said my return options were to ship the monitor back myself or to bring it to A BEST BUY STORE AND THEY WOULD SHIP IT FOR ME. The other irritation was that all the customer service rep could say was a 3rd party purchase (through Best Buy) and you need to ship it yourself. Some training of employees would be a good thing. Customer service etiquette would also be appreciated.

Second time in four years we have benefitted from the expertise and good service provided by this…read morecompany. From the consult appointment of KC to installation, we are pleased with the excellent customer service. Initially, KC made a visit to consult on our needs. No charge for home visit! He listened and answered our questions. He prepared an estimate that was emailed to us. We approved and paid a deposit. Shortly, after an appointment for installation was set up. The plan-- *Install a new 55" Samsung TV mounted on brick wall above our fireplace. A sound bar was attached to the bottom of the TV. It will improve sound in the large family room with a vaulted ceiling. *Move the 46" Samsung TV we bought from Towne four years ago to another room, the office sitting area. It was mounted on a wall. Service men were efficient and professional. (They removed shoes in the house.) They checked with us about details including appropriate placement. After installation, an informative clear explanation of the remote settings for the tv and for the sound bar were given. They cleaned up. We highly recommend this family owned local business.

I'll start with what happened to Radio Shacks in general, and then get on to what's wrong with this…read moreparticular Radio Shack. Radio Shack started out as a supply-and-advice center for very serious electronic hobbyists. It could get you parts, and you could usually run into the local fanatic about small electrics and electronics behind the desk who would steer you towards the right solution to your technical problems. There were a lot of ham operators and early solid state enthusiasts among the dedicated clientele. Gradually it became the place to go to get both the electrical part you needed AND advice about more mundane things, like how to swap out plugs or install your own TV antenna, and Radio Shack established its rep as the place for "regular" people, not just DIY/hobbyist types, to go. You could get odd-sized batteries and still get the excellent advice. Then Radio Shack started moving into what I'd call low-end retail electronics. You could buy a TV there, not just the parts to fix one (which you can't do anymore). Then home computers, for a while. And a VCR. And so forth, as each new generation of equipment which first required extra help and explanations came along. And while they never grew to the Best Buy level, since the footprint of their typical "shack" was small, they continued to keep a reputation as the place you could go to for decent quick help with solving a particular problem with your electron-powered device. And then came the cell phone. Now, Radio Shack has devolved to the point where they're essentially a cell-phone advice-and-sales place that still stocks a lot of other stuff. The employees get trained on how to swap out your number and get you up and running on your cell phone, and they seem to specialize in the clients who are accustomed to coming there and maybe not so much directly to a single-carrier cell phone store. I know this because I've been waiting on getting help at several Radio Shack locations for years now, listening to Joe Rotaryphone have the cell phone explained to him by the staff, while I'm trying to find where they left the inverters and soldering wire. And along the way, they've dropped training their employees about anything else. The local nerd patrol have found their skills are more marketable and appreciated elsewhere, so your friendly neighborhood smart-electronics-self-trained-geek no longer wants to work here. So you get run in the mill retail clerks who are well trained and versed on the cell phone thing but not about anything else. Which brings me to this location. While I've noticed the above about many Radio Shack locations over the years, this one has been particularly bad with respect to the following. * The clerks don't know their own stock. It's not just that they don't know what it is I'm talking about when I come in and talk about some basic item (and I'm not even talking diodes, I'm talking digital thermometers and rheostats and the like), they don't _even know what's in their store_. * On three of the past five occasions I've come to this location, they have had the item I wanted to buy _mispriced_ on the shelf, and then refused to honor the "marked" price on the shelf. Their POS database is king, I suppose, but this is either sloppy or dishonest or a little bit of both. * They DO NOT UNDERSTAND THE BASICS OF ELECTRICITY. I could go into detail here, but I'm sure you don't care for the purposes of this review. But by way of a simple example, I recently had a clerk pull out a lithium and a nicad battery (they were low on stock on the former) and claim I could mix them in the same device. (Don't try at home.) I had one who was utterly unclear about the basic concept behind surge protection. I had another who did _not understand the difference between switched and unswitched_. So what's the point of coming in here? I have to find everything myself, they don't understand what they've got, and three quarters of the time they want to order something specific I want out of a catalog. YO, I CAN SURF THE WEB, DUDES, and buy on-line myself. I will say the staff here have always been friendly, prompt (barring the odd cellphone sale to Joe Rotaryphone), and willing to help (if utterly unable) but I'm at my end with the Shack. I will probably stop in occasionally for the item I have to have now that I can find and understand how to use myself, but I have no need for a cell phone and if I did I'd be smart enough to go to a cell phone carrier after researching it in advance. I do not rant. It's just a sad coda on a long, long relationship with the Shack and writing this review is part of my process. I have moved on to the fifth stage, acceptance, here, and that's all good.

I wanted a new television for my basement to go over my workbench. It couldn't be large (no more…read morethan about 24"), it had to be a smart television with WiFi capability, and it had to allow for apps to be loaded onto it. I didn't care as much about resolution, upgraded speaker quality, etc. as it was a little-used television that I listened to more than watched while working on projects. I am not really tech savvy (nearly everything I was looking for was what my wife told me I needed, as I have trouble just getting the remotes to work) so I decided to come here first. The person I talked to was very helpful. He showed me a couple of televisions that would work but one was way more expensive than I needed (his words actually) and the other was so basic that various apps couldn't be installed onto it. He apologized but couldn't recommend spending a lot on a tv here when a cheap Asian import at Walmart would work a lot better. I appreciated his honesty and advice. If I need a really nice television, I will trust the people here.

The first time I brought stuff in the guy working misquoted me a higher number for one of the items I brought in by A LOT. The second time I brought stuff in a different guy told me, after running it through some "tests", that my iPhone was locked to the ATT network even after I told them that couldn't be possible because I purchased it unlocked directly from Apple. He offered me at least $50 less for it because of this. In addition, they rejected another one of my items because they "couldn't get it to charge". Needless to say I did not sell my items to them. I got home popped a Verizon SIM card in my iPhone and LO AND BEHOLD the phone works. I also plugged the other item in and LO AND BEHOLD it charged right up and held its charge. Basically they wasted an hour of my life and lost business. I do hope the guy who told me my iPhone was locked just made an honest mistake BUT he would have some money to gain if he had convinced me to sell it to him at the lower locked price then turned around and sold it as an unlocked. My suggestion to you would be to make sure you go on the CEX website and get your own quote for the items you are thinking of bringing in. Secondly, try and be in the store when the manager Alissa is working because she actually knows what she's doing. Several of the employees there are unprofessional, slightly rude, and don't know how to do their job correctly.
