    Complaint Type:
    Service or Repair Issues
    Status:
    BBB unable to locate business
    I sent an inquiry to Computer Repair Specialists about getting my laptop screen fixed, and received a reply bon 6/21/21 from ***************************** indicating that they could fix it for me. I dropped my computer off on the same day. I received a call a couple days later indicating that the cost of the part needed to repair my computer would be almost the price of purchasing a new laptop, so I declined the repair and said I would come to pick it up in the coming days. I have made many attempts to retrieve my laptop since then, and as of today 8/23/22, over 14 months later, I still have not received it back. I have tried going to the shop during the hours the website and ****** says they are open, but there was no one ever there. I tried to set-up an appointment in August 2021 to pick it up on a Saturday-- I had another appointment right before my appointment to pick up my computer which ran late, and I sent an email indicating I'd be there as soon as I could. When I arrived about 15 minutes late, the door was locked and no one was there. I called the phone number and was told "sorry, we already left for the day".Since then, I have emailed many times attempting to arrange to get my computer back. I even let them know I was going to have my partner come pick up my laptop during their open hours since their hours are so limited, and I tend to work ***** hours per day. When I suggested that, they said that they would email my laptop to me (4/20/22).5/17/2022 I emailed to check on the shipping status because I still had not received it. 5/18/2022 they said " We will send you tracking info asap"6/27/2022 I emailed them again indicating I still had not received tracking info and I still need need my computer back. In early July, I went to the police for help. The officer emailed them and told them to return my computer to me. I still do not have my computer. When I go to their store, I can see laptops stacked on the countertop, but doors are locked and no one is there.

    I left my computer with the owner of the business "The Computer Repair Specialists" and have not had any success to get it back. His business is locked and he does not answer his business phone. It's been 2 months + since I left it with his and I have personal information on it so I need it back regardless if he resolved the problem.
