Condescending attitude and incompetent tech guys... I'll take my business else where! However they are knowledgeable and know a lot about computers, they make you feel like an idiot because you're not as tech savvy as they are. I had a machine built there and I had to bring it back 4 more times before they hooked everything up the right way. From the USB ports not being hooked up to the audio ports backwards. Not worth the aggravation. read more

With the emergence of scandals coming from the larger tech-support chains, I sought out an independent refuge for my computer woes. The first independent computer repair shop I went to frightened me so badly I will have to review them under an alias. Seriously, I came in and he was mad that "minorities rob the world" and that he "wanted to tie a shotgun to the front door to get 'em". He said all this before I even set down my busted laptop. Thank goodness for Geek Street Computers. A tiny independent shop that has good karma and good smells radiating from it. Besides repairing computers, they also sell used PCs and laptops, as well as computer components.The shop is fair in its repair prices and retail goods but you definitely get more than you pay for. The staff is some of the brightest and kindest I have met in my adventures in Geekdom, neither being dopey nor elitist. My only complaint stems from a miscommunication I had with the owner over a repair. While the details are not important, he still tried to make it up to me both in advice and in supplies. So whether you have a destroyed Dell or a mangled Mac, bring it on in. Oh, and avoid the 2600 block of south Broadway if you are a minority with a broken computer. read more

These guys will not try to charge you for what they can't fix, and they charge significantly less than places like Geek Squad. Not the most upscale shop I've ever seen, but the family working here makes up for it by far. read more

Several years ago I would have given a 5-star review but no longer. I left a message on 7/29/2020 and when I hadn't received a call-back, called again on 7/31/2020. Eric was rude, told me he wasn't working on laptops nor was he working on anything. Seriously? Isn't this what you're in business for? I asked for a referral to someone else and he was just downright rude. So dude, good luck with your business; I'll be sure and let everyone I know to bypass your failing business. read more

Well, to start off, I have known the owner for well over 35 years, and he is a man of integrity, and a man of his word. He (and every member of the highly competent team) know their business, and provide FIRST CLASS, PROFESSIONAL service! If you have a HD failure, there is nobody better, they have saved more skins than a taxidermist! Not only do you get the best repair and service, all in one place, you also instantly become a member of the Geek Street FAMILY, and be assured, they take care of their family!!! Thanks Gene and Brian and Justin and the whole Geek Street TEAM! read more

IT Services and Computer Repair Customer service was great, with a very friendly staff. Gene Brown is the owner and manager. Hours are 10 AM-7 PM Mon.to Fri. and 10 AM to 6 Pm on Sat. The repair was done swiftly and personally by Gene as I was standing there. He's a low key guy with lots of knowledge about the weird problems my computer was having. Now I won't have to drop kick the laptop out the window! Price was very fair. I'd name my first born child after him, but it's a bit late for that. Thanks so much! read more

My 6 m/o computer crashed and rather than spend 2 hrs on the phone with tech support I took it to Geek Street. Was quoted $200 as it was probably a fried hard drive. Imagine my surprise when I picked it up the next day all restored with nothing lost...and the bill? $40!!! Support local business people...especially Geek Street! read more

I am writing this review from my new PC which the guys at Geek Street set up for me. They are the nicest, most polite and most knowledgeable IT folks I've run across in a long time. I couldn't be happier to have done business with them. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!! O.K. it's the 18th of March and I just bought a used PC for my kid to do her homework on. These guys took excellent care of me and I am so happy to have found them.They are the BEST!! read more

Geek street has never done me wrong. If anything, they have hooked me up repeatedly. I have done business with Action for years and I am much happier with Geek Street. The guys are genuine geeks and they aren't afraid to wear that fact on their sleeves. read more

After trying for 6 months to get my speakers working after upgrading my desktop to Windows 10 I decided to have it fixed. I always support local businesses first. This place was on my way to work so I dropped it off. I was told it would be 2-3 business days. After 6 days I called and I was told they couldn't get in because of the wrong password I left. The clerk had re-written down my password. I told them to call me if they had issues. So I told them I would pick it up on my way to work. I went in and was met quickly and given my computer back. To my surprise I was told it was fixed and it was on the bench when I called the night before. I offered to pay and he waved me off. I wasn't told what the issue was but I am excited and hopeful it will work when I get home. I felt my issue was minor, and my call prompted them to jump on it. I was frustrated to be starting all over after waiting a week without my computer. I was super surprised when they didn't charge me and fixed it. I am slightly confused but they made everything right. read more

I really am happy with this business! A few weeks ago my POS system keyboard went out and they helped me configure a way to bypass the old keyboard so my scanner would still work! Thanks Bryan! They are very friendly and they know what the heck they are doing! Yay! read more

Eric is just the most helpful , knowledgeable computer guy around. He will look at the problem, tell you whether or not he can fix it and will NEVER gouge- if you're like I am and sometimes cannot remember your passwords etc. , be prepared to do a little extra work and provide them for him. I mean if he can't get into a program, he really can't fix it. He has the patience to deal with that ( I know firsthand.. :/ ) and will try his best to fix what he can. There is NO other place, in the entire metro, to take your computer for repair. Geek Street is the best! read more

I HIGHLY recommend Geek Street Computers! The guys at Geek Street Computers are great to work with. They accurately assessed my computer's problems and fixed it quickly. My HDD had completely crashed; they put in a brand new 1TB HDD, installed Windows 8 and MS Office, and had me back up and running in 2 days. Also, they are still working on my old HDD attempting to recover my personal files, days after I got my computer back. They're pricing was fare and they only charged me for the components/services that I absolutely needed...NO UP-SELLING! read more

Eric is the man! Super professional, super polite and super understanding! I came in 3 separate times in concern with my monitor connection. I was baffled because I came into Eric's office with my monitor and computer, both plugged in and working fine; then I get back to my house and spend a good hour trying to figure out the problem. Turns out my house's wiring is ancient and I had to many plugs and into the outlet! That was the whole problem!Thanks again a ton for being so cool Eric! Keep up the good work! read more

These guys have given good cell phone advice, popped a key back on my laptop free of charge (Geek Squad would have charged $30), and gave me a (granted, trashed) keyboard when I needed an "L" key. I've gotten them donuts for all their generosity, and it still doesn't seem like enough. I have no idea why some person thought they were condescending; they've been nothing but courteous and helpful when I've come in, and I'm no techie. Seriously, go. You'll never want to go anywhere else afterwards. read more

Computer was giving me significant problems you know the ones that the Dell tech support kill hour after hour of your time. Called Geek Street they said they would look at it and let me know. They had it for a single day and charged me a nominal fee for the work that was performed and allowed me to continue my work. I will continue to take my computer here any time that it has a problem. read more

These guys are awesome. I took my computer to another shop and they had it for two weeks before they were even able to look at it. They said a new keyboard install would take another 10 days. I explained to them I am a student taking online classes and I can't wait this long. I took the computer to Geek Street they let me know the same day what the problem was and fixed it in 4 days. They are more than reasonably priced and I would definitely recommend them and will go back. read more

I rely on Yelp when I don't know which businesses to use for various things This is the first review I have ever written. The reason is to let everyone know what a great place this is! Eric knew what was wrong with my laptop before I even finished describing the problem. He explained what was happening, in terms I could understand, and was genuinely concerned. He then quickly and accurately made the repair for a very fair price. Kudos, Eric! read more

These guys are great. They helped me out SO much when I broke my laptop during finals week. They were very kind and funny, and I would recommend them to anyone. The price was very good too. I really can't complain. read more

After poor service with both Microsoft and Lenovo, I decided to go to a local shop. Eric told me he could fix it in a day, I was expecting the computer on Monday, he called me on Saturday. He literally fixed it in less than 12 hours and on a Saturday when the minimum time frame from the major chains was at least two weeks. I'll never use a major company again. They offer a quick service at a fair price. read more

I found these guys by reading another review on yelp, which compared them to the honest mechanic that's the only person you will take your car to for service. We have two laptop computers that had been "out of service" for months. One is my 17-year old daughter's that had been bombarded with viruses, and we had taken to another place, but had only gotten marginal results. The second laptop belongs to my 13-year old daughter and it had gotten stepped on as it lay beneath a pile of teenagers' clothes. The screen was broken and we could not get it to even power up. So, I called Geek Street and gave them brief descriptions of the two computers over the phone. They told me that I could bring them in and it normally takes 3-5 days to diagnose and repair. Anyway, to cut to the chase, they fixed the one with the broken screen the same day (they had a used screen in stock), and the other one, which was also missing a power source, they ordered the power cord, cleaned all the viruses and had it finish just a few days later! Both computers are home now, and my wife and I can have our computers to ourselves!! I HIGHLY, HIGHLY recommend. The price for repair was more than fair, and they "under-promised and OVER-DELIVERED"--my favorite kind of people in the service biz. read more

I took my computer in because I erased the recovery partition on my laptop and needed the operating system reinstalled. I didn't realise that the recovery partition would not be available and ran into computers down the line when I needed to do a recovery. I called Geek Street and they had me come in right away and found the reason why my restore discs were not working (optical drive) and replaced it for only ten dollars since I had paid for the software installation already. Very relieved and happy with the service. Thanks, guys! read more

After doing what I thought was a botched repair job myself, I took my laptop in to have it looked at to see where I went wrong. At first my worst fears were confirmed. I had fried the mother board. Jean located the part and did a complete tear down of the laptop. Props to him on that task. Dell made this thing so just bout anything you do requires a massive tear down to get to it. It was discover though after the tear down that issue laid not with the board but with a connector cable which ran to the power button. It had become damaged when I disconnected it due a tiny piece of tape logged in the connector on the mother board. I ended up getting a new face plate since dell made the cable part of a modular design. Jean was friendly and answered any questions I had. He even helped me complete the task I was doing which started this whole mess and in the end I walked out with a total cost about $100 bucks for diagnosis, installation, ordering and shipping of the needed part. My thanks to everyone at geek street. If someone needs something fixed i'll be sure to send them your way. Btw they also do custom builds!!! read more

This place is my go to for any computer glitches or major problems. They are polite, kind and get this - HONEST. They have never overcharged me for silly things that can be easily fixed, and have even done a few things free, because they know they have my business. Place is a hot mess but they certainly know what they are doing and that is what really matters. Geek Street rocks the geek world. LOVE these guys! read more
