But there are bargains to be had in software about to be upgraded or ex-display hardware. This store also runs a repair shop which has helped me before now. I've also found staff here to be good at giving advice, for example instructions on how to install new parts myself. One time I may have been sold the wrong part, but when it failed they refunded me no problem, even though I was slightly over the guarantee by that time. So, not always the cheapest, but dependable.

I can't believe this is the first time I've looked into getting a SIM card while abroad. Honestly I…read moregot the card just so I can check in on Yelp and PC world is great place to get your international data needs. The staff was extremely helpful and was able to point me in the right direction for a data SIM card plus a top up on a dumb phone I'm borrowing. After I purchased the card the sales rep was able to do what was needed so I'd have access to the inter-webs. Now I'm no longer carrying a paperweight! Yay!!!

I took a Shuttle XPC (a desktop PC in a very small case) here because when I brought it back from…read moreCanada, I stupidly plugged it in without switching the voltage setting on the power supply. Doh. What bugged me even more is that I couldn't fix it myself and I'm normally quite good at this sort of thing. I took it in, picked it up a day or so later and when I got it home, it worked. I am certain that somewhere obvious inside the case there is a huge reset button labelled, "press here if you are an idiot", but I was too incompetent to find it and so suffered the ignominy of having to explain what I had done. I think the £100 I was charged were really punitive damages rather than the cost of repairs. They wouldn't tell me what they did to fix it, so I think that it probably actually took slightly under 2 minutes to open the case and slightly under 2 seconds to apply the fix. The people are friendly, my only beef is that on return, the case thumb screws had been replaced with regular slot screws. If they need to open the hood on a PC or laptop, they will charge you £70 for a diagnosis regardless of whether it can be fixed or not. If work is required you will be charged for parts and labour on top of that. They specialise in fixing Shuttle PCs here as well as laptops, but I'm sure they could sort out your desktop woes as well. All over, I have no real issue with this place and would use it again if necessary.

I had a mechanical issue with a laptop that I didn't have the time to fix. They took a look, gave…read moreme a price and let me know when to expect to get it back the same day. As this was my only touch point, I don't know if the owner being there made the process smoother. The staff are friendly, and the owner was frank about what they did to fix the issue. Any pc repair has a minimum cost no matter where you go due to labor and overhead. This place seemed like it was on the lower price range after calling a few places in downtown and didn't push useless services - definitely a far cry from the atrocity that is Geek Squad or whatever the equivalent is in the UK.

Initially they performed a free inspection to determine the problem then called me an hour after leaving my Mac with them with the result confirming they could resolve it overnight. They did and also checked my files for any corruption. No fuss, no excuses and explained the problem to me in detail that was understandable. I am definitely using London Mac Repairs again if I need help with my Mac. In fact, I since introduced my boss to them when his iMac needed professional support. Worthy of a 5 star recommendation.
