The Trinidad Tech Shop is staffed by Chris and Ryan who are wizards with technology. No one in…read moretheir right mind will dispute this. I, however, know Chris and Ryan as the proprietors of my very favorite gaming shop. While technology repair may be their purview, the shop is also a haven for those of us not satisfied with console gaming and streaming video services, those of us looking for more in a game than a positive k/d spread or longest average life. Magic the Gathering is a staple of most game stores, and Friday Night Magic is a nationwide phenomenon. The Tech Shop is no exception. They even have an official judge in Andy, who also runs a Dungeons and Dragons campaign on Saturday. Tuesdays are open game night, with new games being tested, old games being mastered and Magic the Gathering being played in a format called Commander. Now, Magic came out when I was in high school and, while I appreciated it, I never really enjoyed playing it. The night I learned to play Commander, with the help of a super knowledgeable regular named Paul (who is also an official MtG judge) was the first time I actually had fun playing Magic. Wednesdays are for Warhammer, both the fantasy version and the ultra sci-fi version, 40k. Andy is the expert-in-residence concerning all things about the miniatures game. While I retain an intellectual interest in learning the game, I would much rather learn it with my own army. To that end, I asked Andy to teach me how to paint miniatures, which he was all to happy to do. I then discovered I have a natural aptitude for it and, what's more, found it to be extremely satisfying. I marvel at the progression: in the process of learning about a new game, I found a new hobby entirely! I first started coming to the shop because I wanted to play D&D. Since then, I have learned to play a dozen games that, under any other circumstances, I wouldn't've even heard of, made friends with people I wouldn't've otherwise met and employed strategies that were previously beyond my ken in games I thought I'd mastered. It has become a home away from home. Big shoutout to Chris, Ryan and Andy: your store is great, your work is outstanding, and you yourselves have no equal! Keep up the good work and I'll see you all soon!

My iPhone battery kept dying after five minutes. I went online and it looked like I might have to go to Pueblo to get it fixed. Fortunately, Trinidad Tech had the battery and within an hour returned the phone to me. It's working great. Thank so much to them. Don't go anywhere else.

Not very cool - I wanted to hire them but they never returned my calls…read more I shipped a rare antique 1940s neon Swihart Hesitator Clock (see photo) to Pueblo, Colorado and unfortunately, one of the neon tubes got snapped by FedEx during shipping. I told the recipient in Pueblo that I would find a neon company in Pueblo. And I promised him that I would pay them to fix the neon tube - no matter how much money it cost me. The only neon place I could find on the internet in Pueblo, Colorado was Ralph's Neon & Electric. Unfortunately, they never returned my calls and they never answered my message. For some reason, they list 2 locations and 2 phone numbers on Bing (see photo). They look like a big establishment so they must have two locations. I called them several times at both numbers (see my cell phone log photo). I actually reached a woman at one number and I was referred to a guy named "Chuck" at the other number. He never answered and I left a message. I never heard from anyone. And after 2 weeks I just got angry, I blocked their numbers, and I wrote my Yelp review. I can't hire Ralph's Neon or use their services if they don't answer their phone or call me back! Was my job too small? Did they think I'm a scammer since I called them from another state? Who knows? They look like a huge, well established, multi-generational company so I'm being generous and giving them two stars. Although I'm tempted, I'm not going to knock them down to 1 star for dodging my phone calls. They must be doing something right to afford all of the heavy equipment and real estate. But personally, I was left high & dry and without neon light. -Daddy Maxx Retro P.S. Ralph's complained to Yelp and they had my previous review removed by Yelp HQ because Ralph's told Yelp that I'm a business competitor. I can assure everyone that I'm not and I have never been in the sign business, the electrical business, the neon business, or the antique business . I'm a retired biologist that loves antiques. In addition, the guy I shipped the clock to isn't in any of these businesses and he's also a retired gentleman.

We contacted this company a couple of years ago when opening a new business. We were anxious to…read morekeep this expenditure in Pueblo, but did not receive returns calls after several messages were left. Finally they did call, after we had given the job to an out-of-town company. After all of that time had passed, the gentleman had the nerve to take an attitude. When we open our next location, we will certainly not attempt to contact Ralph's again. He must be awfully busy to simply ignore a potential new customer. We have happily recommended the out-of-town company to other tenants who have been moving in to our strip center.
