Apple authorized dealer. They really are very good at what they do. Reasonable prices. Excellent service, very friendly and knowledgable staff.

MY SYSTEM WAS ACCIDENTALLY SET ON A WET COUNTER TOP. THE SYSTER WAS FINE FOR A FEW HOURS, SUDDENLY THE SCREEN WENT OUT. THE SYSTEM WOULD POWER UP WITH NO DISPLAY.

I CALLED APPLE SUPPORT, AFTER TALKING TO THE TECHNICIAN, HE REFERRED ME TO A LOCAL AUTHORIZED APPLE REPAIR STORE.

I TOOK MY COMPUTER TO THE COMPUTER STORE LOCATED IN MOBILE, ALA. I WAS TOLD THE LOGIC BOARD WAS DAMAGED WITH CORROSION. HE GAVE ME A VERBAL ESTIMATE STATING THE PART WOULD COST AROUNG 400.00 AND 1 HOUR LABOR, TOTAL PARTS AND LABOR 500.00. I OKED THE REPAIR.



WHEN I PICKED UP THE COMPUTER AND RECEIVED THE INVOICE I NOTICE THE PART WAS ONLY 280.54, AND HE CHARGED 2 HOURS LABOR TO BRING THE PRICE UP TO 500.00. WHEN I QUESTION THE TECHNICIAN, HE COULD NOT EXPLAIN THE COST OF REPAIR. I CALLED APPLE AND WAS TOLD THIS REPAIR WOULD HAVE COST 325.00 IF I HAD MAILED THE SYSTEM TO APPLE. IF YOUR APPLE PRODUCT NEEDS A REPAIR, YOU SHOULD MAIL IT TO APPLE OR FIND ANOTHER REPAIR COMPANY.

IMHO the other reviews in here are written by the ignorant. I have had 2 PC's built by them with MY specifications including a military grade motherboard the likes of which you can't even get with Dell, Lenovo or HP. They did great work, smoothed and solved all bumps that arose, and stood behind t heir work. Their prices were reasonable and each time I ended up with a superior result at no more than a few hundred dollars more than a Dell - but with much better quality and integrity. All the services they performed at my request included some that other local vendors wouldn't perform - I know because I asked before I found TCS. Based upon my personal experience anyone who would trust the geek squad with anything is a fool. You get what you pay for and TCS is well worth it.
