That's precisely why I always value great customer service to make doing errands, well, a lot less like doing errands. I headed to this shop because I had lost my old phone (tragedy) and needed to get a replacement SIM card with the same phone number. The man took the time to explain the entire process to be, while at the same time being very efficient. It's not really nice heading to a store and having them input all of this information into the computer without any explanation, then slap you a bill at the end. The man even input that the phone was faulty instead of lost in his system so I wouldnt receive the extra SIM card charge. Can you say, good guy?

Okay, despite being a bit of a computer geek (though I wonder how one defines a computer geek these…read moredays since pretty much everybody used computers) I generally don't spend all that much time in computer shops. Maybe it is because I generally don't buy all that much - all I the software that I use is freely available, and I generally only get hardware when I absolutely need it - that I don't visit many computer shops. This place isn't bad, though the staff are only knowledgeable on the stuff that most people use, so if you come with a question like 'does this work on Linux' there response is - it should. Also, if you are looking for component parts (such as a power supply) then unfortunately you won't find any here. In a way it is a store that deals specifically with computers, and really only stuff that the average user would require. They also tend to be a little more expensive that some of the other store, but at least they do know a little more than your average salesperson at Dick Smiths.

After trying a few different cables (and I'm not sure exactly how I managed to acquire them), I was forced to accept the inevitable. My phone had turned into an expensive brick. I checked into MKC in Melbourne's city centre after finding them online. My iPhone had stopped recognising when it was connected to recharge, so I took it in and was told it'd probably be either the battery itself or the dock that accommodates the cable. The conversation went like this: Me: Hello. My iPhone is a brick. MKC: What's wrong with it? Me: (Explained what was wrong with it). MKC: Oh. That'll probably be the battery or the cable dock. Me: Can you fix it? MKC: Probably. Give us an hour and $79. 60 minutes later, I was handed back a fully operational, functioning phone. Brilliant. Staff were friendly and straight-talking. I was happy with the price. I hope I don't have to visit again, but if things go sideways, MKC will be my first port of call.
