    I gave this place a try to have some film developed and unfortunately I ended up with extremely low quality scans which resulted in low quality prints and even someone else's photos being sent to me. Digital scans were less than 1mb with a resolution of 1545x1024, pixels per inch is just 72. (Most development labs use a standard of 3130x2075) I brought up the issue and was told "that doesn't sound right, let me send it again" and "we will send you the TIFF files" I received TIFF files that were actually someone else's photos. I tried to reach out to ask for a refund for the just the development $20 x5 rolls and was denied. Extremely disappointed and would recommend to anyone to avoid this place and have your film developed elsewhere.

    Customer service was amazing, they were very quick, and honest. The price is good and they have one of the kind camera that we are looking for

    John went way out of his way to help me. He took time to answer all my questions. I know where I'll come next time for my photography needs.

    Do they buy cameras?

    Unfortunately we do not as we only sell new cameras.

    Amazing customer service. Was very friendly and kept me updated on every step to fix my computer…read more Computer is working great. And they fix other gaming/ computer devices. The price is very affordable. Highly recommended.

    AVOID THIS SCAMMER REPAIR SHOP AT ALL COSTS TRUST ME!!!!…read more All his good reviews and fake since most of the accounts have only one review and were made same day as they commented! I brought my PC here suspecting a faulty power supply and specifically asked for a simple test (any legitimate shop has a cheap PSU tester for this). The owner said he'd check it and call me by end of day. When I followed up, the computer hadn't been touched. It was just sitting there, barely even opened. He made excuses about waiting for a "technician." After multiple unreturned calls, he flip-flopped on the diagnosis (first GPU, then back to power supply, my original guess) but never actually fixed anything. When I came to pick it up, he suddenly demanded $149 for "diagnosis" and ~$60 for "cleaning", fees he never mentioned upfront and that I never authorized. I had clearly expected a call before any paid work began. While waiting, I spoke with another customer who was going through the exact same thing: no communication, unauthorized charges added (he tried charging them $149 to reinstall Windows when the only issue was needing to sign into an account), and pressure to pay for unnecessary work. I helped them negotiate the price down because it was blatant overcharging. When it was my turn and I questioned the charges, the owner became extremely aggressive, yelling at me to leave the store multiple times and trying to handle me away from other customers so they wouldn't overhear. In the end, he backed down and took $100 just to get me out, but I only paid because I needed my computer back. When I got home, it was in worse shape: still dusty (no cleaning done), partially disassembled, and components left unplugged. Absolutely nothing was repaired. This place uses classic bait-and-switch tactics: quotes low/no fees verbally, then hides behind fine print on a drop-off form to justify exorbitant charges for work they never discussed or performed. They prey on non-tech-savvy customers and get hostile when challenged. Do not bring your devices here. Total scam. Save yourself the headache and money.

    Mr Ken provided a quick and cheap service to repair the plug to my $500 Shark Flexstyle for only…read more$55!! The plug to my device had completely broken off and I called every electronic repair man in my area but couldn't find one until I checked out Alpha Electronics. Didn't know we needed an appointment but Mr Ken happily took me in the same day and offered to replace the plug with a stronger and more durable plug. My Shark was ready and fixed that same day!! Super fast and reliable!! 10/10 experience!! Mr Ken seemed to specialize in music equipment repair but to my surprise was able to fully repair my Shark Flexstyle in under 8 hours!! If you have any questions about whether or not he could repair something of yours just call and send a picture of the issue and he will reply immediately. He gave very clear communication and provided a cheap price for my repair needs! Will definitely be returning in the future!

    Ken was awesome! Had to bring my record player here because I accidentally pulled too hard on one…read moreof the inner cables on the tone arm while replacing my cartridge and the pin broke. Figured I just needed to get it soldered. Came here during lunch, and at first, I thought it was closed because they didn't have lights on. But there's a sign on the door that states to call ahead and to wear a mask. Ken quickly picked up my call, heard my issue, and told him I'm outside. Ken was quick to acknowledge my request, and he let me in. There's a $25 diagnostic fee deposit, which goes toward the repair. Which, in my case, means soldering the cable back to the pin connector. Paid with a CC, and he asked for my contact and told me he would call me when it's ready. The next day, he called to tell me it's ready. And violaaaa, my record player works again! Awesome work and awesome hospitality, Ken. I'll see you again next time I break my record player.
