    New (to me) iMac, hanging out on my desk. #win
    Kayla W.

    Okay, here's the rub: I'm not cheap, but am absolutely budget conscious--and have been prowling the technological savanna for over four weeks looking at iMacs of all shapes-and-sizes, from refurbished to NIB. My end-goal was to spend no more than $1250.00 because I already own the giant iPad Pro. This budget fell right in line with the newest 21.5-inch iMac (2015) that with my education discount, plus tax and the SuperDrive, would have been ~$1215.00. I went into the big-box store to purchase it...and was incredibly underwhelmed. The specs of the device essentially made it a larger MacBook Air (I'm serious), and upgrading it to the desired Quad-core and speeds meant a cost-prohibitive $1499+. Walked out of the big-box bummed. Later that night, I ended up shopping around on eBay and Newegg looking for a refurbished model to compete with Apple's refurb program; stumbled across these guys and their online shop of phenomenally priced models. Didn't realize they were in San Diego until I went to check out--and it offered the option of free-pickup. Ecstatic, I clicked the "purchase" button and WHAM--another buyer was a second faster than me. So...I just went into the store in order to physically claim the machine. Here's what happened: I was greeted by Matt who was awesome (compliments on a woman's shoes will get you everywhere), and assisted by Tiffany who was an absolute doll-button and an incredible help. They brought out a model I inquired about but wasn't sold on that was in the rock-bottom mid-$500s range because of one small blemish...my initial intent was to spend more on a newer model. But their quality control is so discerning the "blemish" on the less-expensive desktop was something I literally can't even tell is there. In addition to the unit, I bought additional ram (Tiffany installed on the spot -- 8GB, $70 with my bundle discount), an upgraded Magic Mouse 2 ($45), and they kicked in my preference of a wired keyboard vs. Bluetooth at no extra charge. With tax, I was out the door for $712.00--with 2x the power in all areas of the machine, and running the latest version of OS. I literally paid less than half of what I would have forked over for the new properly-outfitted unit; $500 less than settling for the new entry-level iMac. The service received and the amount of money saved was just unbelievable--so long as this team is in business, I'm loyal to them. I'm absolutely the fussiest consumer imaginable, and this little business rocked my world. Buy. Local.

    My company purchased quite a few Apple Macs from these guys in the last year when they were across the hall from us. All work great for refurbished and practically brand new Macbook Pros. Recently they moved into a larger facility and I needed a new adapter for my 2008 Macbook Pro. These guys are legit. SUPER knowledgable, and knew exactly the type of adapter I needed. We chatted about lots of different products and how they've been doing since moving their shop into their new digs. They've increased their supply of everything Apple related and it's basically a candy store for Mac nerds like myself. It's set up like a mini Apple store with display models in their lobby and a technical operation behind glass. Think if the Apple Genius Bar had beer and no lines filled with old ladies trying to pull photos from their broken iPhones. They fixed my friend's laptop while we waited and played around on new computers, so it's basically like an Apple store without the fuss, long wait times, or pretentious millennias--no offense to millennials. Quality Macs is GREAT. Thanks guys! I highly recommend for buying a new Mac or getting something fixed. Apparently they also do trade-ins which is good to know.

    I was even given a free clear laptop case!

    I came in looking for a MacBook since my old one pretty much broke down after 6 years of use! The person who helped me walked me through their eBay listings and helped me find the perfect MacBook Air for only $500! It's been about a week and so far I haven't had any issues with it. There is a small dent in the corner which is totally fine in fact I expected a lot worse bc of how cheap the price was. I was even able to get a trade in value for my old MacBook so it's nice that I can get some money back. Overall, the service was amazing and informative! Definitely check this place out if you're looking to trade-in or even find a decent MacBook for a great price!

Mark took the time to explain how battery cycles work, what to expect in terms of battery life, and how to properly understand battery health. It was clear he genuinely knew his stuff and cared about making sure I understood the repair--not just getting me in and out the door. Fast forward about four months, and I unexpectedly started experiencing battery degradation. I reached back out to Mark, not really knowing what to expect since I was outside the warranty window. Without hesitation, he offered to replace the battery--no questions asked. That kind of customer service is incredibly hard to find these days. Anyone can provide a service when everything goes right, but standing behind your work and taking care of a customer after the fact is what separates a good business from a great one. Mark earned my trust and my business for the long term. This is exactly how you create lifelong customers. Thank you, Mark, for taking care of me and for providing such outstanding service. I highly recommend PCS Connection!

I asked the workers if there's always nobody here and they said their biggest rush is about 3 people each day. Which is a pretty sweet deal for them and for anyone who comes here. You'll be seen pretty much right away each time. The staff both helped me out. Sometimes taking turns, sometimes together. Got both of their attention which was nice and made for some light banter between us all. I came in for T-mobile internet. I was pretty set that I wanted it but I came for more information first. They acted a bit prematurely and went to sign me up after explaining the bare minimum with me, which I didn't like at all, and although I was pretty set, I slowed them down and still had them walk through the information with me. Because they were ready to sell me, I knocked them down a star for not listening to me and what I was searching for. Other than that, they answered all of my questions, gave me tips for other T-mobile related products, and shared tech-related issues and ideas about the future which was a cool insight into the field I know nothing about. Parking lot is shared with other businesses. There are sharp turns here and even though it says its a two way parking lot, its really only suitable for one person to go at a time. So in other words, drive defensively.

I visited this Verizon store around two years ago, as a customer and amn individual going through a lot of unforeseen circumstances that were outside of my understanding and control. It was a very tough time period-- the logistical barriers/obstacles, my mental health, and the disparity & juxtaposition between how I remember San Diego (as an undergraduate student at UC San Diego, which I suppose is La Jolla) were all disorienting. My phone went missing while I was commuting and "Fine My Device" marked its location that it was around the bus stop close to the San Diego Zoo. Unfortunately, I couldn't retrieve it. Thankfully, I could afford to get another phone through a family member. They ordered one for me and I just stumbled upon this store because it was nearby. There were no issues with the new Samsung Galaxy, at the time of opening the box/casing. It was new, and it served me mostly well until I decided to move away from San Diego. Thank God there was a way to communicate through this very challenging time period. I was cop-ing, sketch-ing, and test-ing my way through landscapes and lifescapes and cityscapes, for the sake of my mental health. This review has almost nothing to do with this store or with Verizon, sorry... but I remember that the employees (Customer Service, I think) at this store were OK. They did not strike me as disrespectful, even though I did not get the impression that they were tech experts or tech-literate. Simply remembering that they were somewhat respectful says a lot, from this time period...
