The last PC I owned was powered by a 980ti running Windows 8…read more I've been thinking about building a new PC for years and decided to finally do it. I spent a couple weeks gathering all the components I've been eyeing and made the pilgrimage down to Micro Center (in Tustin) to take advantage of a great MOBO/Proc/RAM bundle. The last time I built a PC was in 2008 and at this point in my life, I just wanted an expert to help me get everything running and optimized. Gar was that expert. This guy knows his stuff and I couldn't be happier with my (first) experience at Helix. He runs the shop by himself and is clearly a lifelong PC enthusiast. It was really cool to see all his customers more 'aesthetic' builds that were in progress. I'm old so I wanted something with as little RGB as possible (haha). He even has a mini museum of PC components from decades past on display which really sent me down a VERY nerdy memory lane. He put together a 9800X3D / 5080 air cooled monster and everything runs perfectly. He optimized Win11 and walked me through everything he did when I picked up the machine. I would consider his shop a unicorn in 2026. Physical location. Passionate business owner who is offering top quality service in a niche industry. Fair prices.

Garnik is the absolute best. Passionate about what he does, great communicator, and has an…read moreincredible eye for detail. He took on a really challenging build for me (SFFPC) and I couldn't be happier with the result. He's also a great guy, which always helps. Won't go anywhere else for my PC needs!

And I'm a gigantic fan…read more I first found Eddie's Computers seven months ago or so, while doing some online shopping to help a friend who wanted to buy a computer setup for her kids. It was time for them to have their own machine. But she didn't want to spend an arm-and-a-leg on it. I found Eddie's shop on Craigslist. It seemed too good to be true. $120 for a complete set up -- box, flat screen monitor, keyboard, mouse, and speakers? I called. It seemed legit. We buzzed out the 170 to Sylmar (tip: 170 to San Fernando Mission Rd. to a left on San Fernando Rd. to a L on Astoria. Make your first left once you're on Astoria, then a L onto Berg). He operates out of his garage. But what a garage! It's full of used desktops, monitors, and other peripherals. We told him what we wanted, and Eddie -- a stocky Latino guy who knows his stuff -- dug out a used HP desktop, Viewsonic 19" monitor, and the promised peripherals. Word loaded already, and XP operating system. Plus anti-virus and a few other programs. And not a junky box, either. More than 1 gig of RAM, and a big hard drive, too. Everything worked. $120 changed hands -- cash only, I think. And now, seven months later, it's still working perfectly. Can you spell B-A-R-G-A-I-N ? Then today, my own Dell Optiflex desktop wouldn't boot. I suspected a power supply problem.Called Eddie. He said bring it out. He was there. (I think he's always there!). He tested the power supply, which had gone bad. Looked around for a used one to replace it. (He'd told me $20 to do the replacement.) He didn't find one. He could have sold me another box, and I would have bought it, but at the last minute he went into the back and dug around some more. Back there, unearthed another older Dell, which he raided for its power supply for me! Everything got connected, and booted fine. But Eddie wasn't happy with the speed of boot, so he went into the system controls for me and de-listed some programs from automatic startup. That worked, too. Twenty dollars for part and labor. Are you kidding? B-A-R-G-A-I-N! So I can't recommend this dude highly enough. He seems to be open seven days, and well into the evening. Bonus: this part of Sylmar and San Fernando have some hellified Salvadorean restaurants. Get some pupusas while you're out there. Oh! Travel time from Studio City to his place? Under twenty minutes with no traffic. I timed it. JCBF: For any and all computer needs.

I found myself at Best Buy's Burbank location doing research on TVs for a newly-acquired investment property. I've generally been a fan of this brand over the years when the only other competitor was Circuit City, but now places such as online behemoth Amazon.com and national brands Costco, Target, and Walmart vied for the public's electronic entertainment money. This was my last place for research after I first checked online and then visited several brick-and-mortars. Whether I was exhausted, the selection seemed better, the service was helpful, and the prices were competitive (all of these were true), I ultimately landed here to fork over my money. From start to finish, was this the best buy I hoped for!? PURCHASE(S) Samsung 55" Class M8OH Series Mini LED 4K UHD Samsung Vision AI Smart Tizen TV 2026 ($599.99): A beautiful TV with nice black screen color, very good sound before the soundbar, and I loved Samsung products which I can also sync with my mobile phone. I only wished I bought the 65"; I mismeasured - oops! Rocketfish Tilting TV Wall Mount For Most 32"-90" TVs Black ($89.99): This was the least expensive standard option and seemed to be the right choice since the TV was going to be stationary. TV Basic Mounting 55" Or Smaller ($179.99): Honestly, I felt paying for this installation at about 30% of the TV cost was outrageous, but as I observed the two technicians, I don't think a friend and I could've done as good of a job or within the time it took them to do it - c'est la vie. Samsung B-Series HW-B650F 3.1 Ch DTS Virtual X Soundbar Black ($249.99): This provided a nice cinematic surround sound listening experience with a wireless subwoofer for more bass. I was skeptical about the extra expense, but I felt it has made a difference in sound quality. Insignia Rear/Bottom Soundbar Mount For Wall Mounted TVs Black ($24.99): A simple enough piece of hardware that cradled the soundbar underneath the TV for more volume. Soundbar Setup ($99.99): Might as well have a "professional" handle this, but it seemed easy enough when I watched it being installed. Home Delivery (COMP): Normally $99.99, I couldn't recall if it was waived as a holiday promotion, or because I spent a certain amount. Whatever the reason, I gladly accepted it! Best Buy Foundation Donation ($5.00): For the benefit of youths in underserved communities, I believed in supporting their educational and career goals. Electronic Waste Recycling Fee ($6.00): Who exactly got this money!? SERVICE I was approached by a male salesperson who calmly took the time to explain the differences between a few TVs I looked at, helped recommend the additional hardware (he sold me on the soundbar), and talked me through everything. On delivery/installation day, two friendly Geek Squad technicians arrived timely enough within the delivery window (the text updates were acting wonky), they courteously wore covers on their shoes as they rather easily and quickly unpackaged, installed, and tested everything, One offered a quick tutorial on the remotes of the TV and soundbar. They were done in about 45 minutes - thank you! PARKING (FREE) Located within the large outdoor Burbank Empire Center, there were plenty of spots shared among several other businesses - 'nuff said! ATMOSPHERE, DÉCOR, AMBIENCE A big-box high ceiling warehouse style layout with one level. There was plenty of merchandise throughout the sectioned floorplan and within many aisles while ample space was given for carts and customers. Promotional posters and such were throughout as you would imagine. Minimal natural lighting came through the front glass windows and doors while a ton of electric soul-sucking fluorescent ceiling lights filled in the rest. There were plenty of TVs (only for display purposes) while Top-40 music played in the background. ATTIRE Totally casual, so I would normally be in a t-shirt, boardshorts, and flip-flops. OVERALL At the very least, Burbank's Best Buy location contained what I was looking for on this trip, so I was happy and would consider another visit if needed. The store itself was bustling with customers for holiday deals and an approachable sales staff. They basically carried all the major name brands in appliances and electronics, so do your research and find what you want. I found very good value based on the prices, service, and experience noted above (TOTAL paid experience was around $1,326.00 BEFORE any discounts and/or tip). And, they accepted my credit card of choice... AMEX! 4.0 STARS

I mailed an actual letter to the corporate complaint department…read more To Whom It May Concern, I have been a loyal Best Buy customer since the 1980s. As a Veteran, a single father, and a small business owner, both my time and budget are limited. What should have been a simple purchase of two televisions for my son's school project became a nearly two-week ordeal that cost me more than eight hours of work time, multiple one-hour round-trip drives, and a great deal of unnecessary stress. Between July 2 and July 14, I experienced a long series of failures that should never happen to a customer: My online order for two open-box TVs was repeatedly confirmed and then canceled, requiring approximately 90 minutes and multiple calls to customer service before it was finally processed. I drove to the Woodland Hills store only to discover that one of the TVs I had purchased had apparently been missing for months. At the Burbank store, I purchased another TV to meet my deadline. When I got home, I discovered that the original open-box TV I had ordered had a severely damaged screen. Your online return system directed me to the Sherman Oaks store, where I was told the TV could not be returned there and had to be taken back to Burbank. An employee even remarked that the damage appeared consistent with the TV having been stepped on. I made another one-hour round trip to Burbank to return the damaged TV, only to wait about 30 minutes before being told the store's return system was down and no returns could be processed. I then spent nearly another hour on the phone with customer service and was ultimately told that neither customer service nor the supervisor could offer compensation, and that I should contact Corporate. When I finally returned the TV on July 14, the store manager acknowledged the problems but blamed an "outside vendor", confirmed the previous system outage, and accepted that the experience had been unacceptable. However, he refused to compensate me for the significant inconvenience. By the end of this process, I had made multiple unnecessary trips, spent over eight hours away from my business, dealt with repeated mistakes by your ordering and return systems, and devoted additional time to documenting this experience. In more than 40 years as a customer, I have never experienced such a prolonged series of preventable failures with a store. I am asking Best Buy to recognize the significant time, expense, and inconvenience this situation caused by providing appropriate compensation like a Best Buy gift card. I believe that would be a fair acknowledgment of the customer experience I endured and would demonstrate that Best Buy values long-time customers. I look forward to your response and hope we can resolve this matter satisfactorily. Sincerely, There response was a cold and uncaring. Basically we said we won't do anything for you.

Terrified that I had somehow caused permanent damage to my shiny new laptop, I desperately looked for a repair place near my office.

When I explained the problem, the guy said he was pretty sure he knew what happened and proceeded to not only fix it, but fix it right in front of me, explaining what he was doing, so I could do it myself if the same thing happened again. I was there for about 10 minutes total, but I happily wrote a check for $50, knowing that was the ONLY time I'd have to do it. Since then, I have not only used the fix he taught me MULTIPLE times on my own laptop, I even taught a couple of my friends the same trick, saving them a trip to the repair shop.

I chose Complete Computer Cure because they where close by to where I live, and the staff was very nice and seemed on top of everything. At that time I did not see the reviews on Yelp. They took it in, and in a while figured out what was wrong. Suggested options. I had Ram upgraded to 16 GB also a new hard drive and a new battery. That all costed about $500- so not cheap. Also from the minuses it did take them longer than they said it would. But who of us is always on time? I took my computer home and OMG. It's flying!!! The load time is 30 sec.
