To my surprise, I got it right the first time when I went looking to the internet locally for a…read moregreat computer technician to help me with my problem. My beloved computer, for which I nickname Diamond, got a bad infection. From where I could not tell you. But it tried to gain complete control of my computer and invaded my windows registry. My firewall was not working any longer and there was no virus protection-because the virus knocked it all out. I saw this store was highly rated on Yelp and gave it a try. I was pleasantly surprised with my service. The price to fix my beloved computer Diamond was below what I had expected. And they gave me door to door service. Thanks Park Slope Computers. I will become a loyal customer.

I would like to start this review explaining that I always hear people complain about how "mom and…read morepop" stores can never survive with the advent of the "big box" stores and there are many people who will actually boycott the "big box" stores in favor of the little guy. I decided to give this place a try because I felt a neighborhood store would provide the friendly service that most would expect. My HP laptop was just shutting off and we decided that we needed to see what the problem was. I called the store and was told that we would recieve a free diagnostic check. That was the highlight of the experience. We brough the computer in and was told they would look it over and let us know what they find. After a few days we called the shop and was told there they thought it was a virus but needed to confirm. If this was the case, we would be looking at $95. That was worth it. After calling back, they mentioned that this could possibly be the motherboard, a $200 + job where my response was, we might as well just replace the laptop. After a few more days we were told that they believe it was a virus and would have the laptop in a few days. If you notice, the canned response was "a few days". My wife finally called them on a Tuesday and they said it would be ready the next day. She tried calling in the morning and even went to the store. The gates were closed for the majority of the day. When she called back in the evening, we were told that "they were in"!! The gates were closed but they were in, very interesting. We were told that they would definitely have it the following day (Thursday). When my wife asked what happened the day before they told us that there was a "family emergency". So which was it, a family emergency or you were there with the gates down? Not a great business move to lie to your customers. Finally, Thursday had arrived and I told my wife that I would pick it up. It was supposed to be ready that afternoon. When I got to the store, sure enough, it was not ready. It was "90 %" ready which for me was just ridiculous. The owner stated that he told my wife it would be ready between 5-7 which is B.S., as stated, he said the afternoon. I then asked in a calm voice, "is this how you normally do business?" and was told, "yeah, this is how we do business!". No sooner, the owner then got loud with me and told me to take my computer and get out of the store if I am going to yell. Funny, I never raised my voice. In any event, I took my computer home after wasting nearly 3 weeks for nothing. Really surprised that this guy was such a jerk and would recommend that if you are looking for computer repair, try Staples or the Geek Squad. I wish I could give this place no stars!!

It's such a time in this day and age when I want to build my own PC but have NO CLUE what I'm…read moredoing. Yes, YouTube tutorials are one thing but since I'm a hands on learner; sometimes I just can't get it. This 5 star is going to the wonderful Reinaldo! Who saw me looking clueless next to the available graphics cards. Micro center has such a wide variety of everything that it can get overwhelming but he helped me every step of the way and even took a look at the list I made. Constructive criticism may hurt my feelings but his advice wasn't to sway what I wanted but give me more perspective of how it will run in comparison to how it will look. With streaming and my art set up, he knew I'd need a better parts. At this point, I didn't mind paying a bit extra because he EXPLAINED why I would need them instead of just upselling me for the heck of it. 10/10 service and care. Also big 10/10 for micro center getting employees that are knowledgeable and love what they do. Along with having EVERYTHING. (If they don't, the employees can help you find it at a different micro or help you order it to home) Thank you!

Well, I just ended one of the absolute worst shopping experiences of my life. I left this review on…read moretheir other site too. I specifically came here after ordering a Web order of one of the two things they had - and then the following sequence of events happened. 1. My web order was not on the shelf, even though I had a confirmation email, they saw the confirmation email in their system, and then weren't able to find it after 10 minutes of searching. They then told me to go to the floor (no help, no direction on where to go) to go find what they lost 2. I am told to go to a sales representative on the floor. I tell him what I need, knowing that there is still one left in their inventory since I didn't buy them out with my Web order. He searches the generic name of the brother labels i'm looking for (literally "brother's label cartridge"), the results are very long, he doesn't go past the first page, and he tells me that they don't carry that here at all 3. I then show him the page on the website with the right name. He finally looks it up. he tells me it's an aisle seven and tells me to go there. 4. I go to aisle seven I search for another 10 minutes, no help from any staff at this point, and no cartridge to be found - neither the one I ordered online nor the one they had left in inventory. Look, I know mistakes happen, but there was a point of friction on every single step in this process. There was no accountability, no support when things went wrong, and no accommodation once the experience is wrapped up. I've had two negative and two neutral experiences. I've tried. I'm sorry. Never coming back, and I'll let my friends know my experiences when it comes to electronics
