Great local business! Saved me a huge headache! I recently purchased a brand new Lenovo from…read moreStaples. Because I was moving, the new laptop got packed away before even coming out of the box. A month later I started up the new Lenovo and the screen immediately began to glitch. My new machine was defective right out of the box. I took it back to Staples thinking it would be a simple exchange. It was not. Their story policy did not all for the return/exchange as i missed the return window for electronics. Staples tried to bring the machine up but the defective monitor did not allow for and repair/diagnosis. Rats! But the machine was still under factory warranty. I placed a trouble ticket on the Lenovo website and was assigned a case on February 2, 2021. I waited about two weeks, thinking I would at least have a follow-up message about my machine. I replied to the email with my case number asking for an estimate. I use my laptop for my writing gig on the side (and to post these Yelp reviews!) Bottom line, I needed to get back on the web ASAP. I frequent Topsham where this unassuming little shop is located on the second floor of suite 2 in Topsham Fair Mall and thought, I'll check it out. I was impressed by the cozy waiting room, masks were being enforced due to covid, and social distance measures were put into place, clear dividers were used to shield customers and staff. I sat down with owner/head tech Josh who specializes in Lenovos. He was sympathetic to my plight and said Lenovo will probably never get back to me, so he offered to take over my repair claim and with his magic connections he'd give them a call. WHAT A RELEIF! I was able to unload my headache and put it in the hands of a professional repair tech who has over 15 years experience in the industry. Mr. Mason provided top-notch customer service, he really empathized with my plight. I trust my machine is in good hands. Skip the big box, check out the Nerd Barn for computer, phone, tablet, etc. repair needs.

Very nice people, and they turned my computer around very quickly, but the technician did exactly…read morewhat I did before bringing my computer in, and charged me $45 for it (the problem - unable to connect to or even find a wifi connection - came back the next day, which is what happened when I did it), instead of going right to the next step (reseating or replacing my corrupt network adapter hardware, which I couldn't do myself). Had I brought it back, I would have been charged upwards of $160 more for what should have been done in the first place. I ended up buying an external network adapter for $18 on Amazon and now I can get on the internet without a problem.

HE finally answered my phone call and stated its under lock and key and safe.

I have had police go to his business and there is little they can do unless I want to press charges and up until now I was giving him the benefit of the doubt.

Since then, I've reached out over 40 times between June and today asking for updates--with hardly any response. I did eventually speak with Trey, who told me he had been in and out of the hospital. I was empathetic--but even after that conversation, he continued to miss multiple promised deadlines. As of now, I haven't had any contact since late August and still haven't gotten my computer back. I've since filed a police report. I strongly recommend avoiding this business.
