    FAQ

    How fast will I get an offer?

    Usually within one business day. Clear photos and full specs speed things up.

    Do you buy broken PCs or parts?

    Often, yes. Select “For parts / not working” and describe the issue — we'll quote based on usable components.

    Why is my final offer different from the quote?

    Quotes are estimates. Every item is tested before payment, and the final offer reflects actual condition, testing and current market value.

    Is the diagnostic fee refundable?

    The fee is credited toward any approved repair. If you decline the repair, the fee is retained. Payment is due at intake.

    Where do you do house calls?

    Chicago and nearby areas. We confirm your service area when booking.

    How much does a custom build cost?

    It depends on your budget and parts. Your build fee is quoted upfront with your parts list, before anything is ordered.

    Should I wipe my drives?

    Back up your data first. We can securely wipe drives at your request before resale.
