Compustar

First and LAST time coming here. I’m sorry, but I’ve never encountered such horrible customer service. I came in looking for a simple phone charger, but the man behind the counter was beyond unamused to do any business and seemed rather irritated that I even entered the store. Poor attitude, but not surprising considering his age. I’m not trying to be disrespectful, but if you can’t even answer a few questions without sounding like a know-​it-​all snob, then why/​how are you a salesperson?
I’m glad I got what I was looking for elsewhere.

These guys are the best! Been fixing my computers for years here! And they charge dirt cheap prices! Dell spent 3 days on remote and couldn’t fix my system they did it in a day for $ 65!!! All hail Compustar!!!

They moved to 1306 Avenue U. I’ve gone their twice and always had excellent price. Both estimates were fair and the second one was actually lower in total when I ended up paying. They really are nice people and I had my laptop back each time within 24 hours. It works so well now and I cannot believe I was even considering buying a new laptop. I thought my laptop the last time was a goner.

Great place to fix your computer. They’ve done perfect work for me and friends every time. Never been cheated or overcharged.
Never bought a new product from them so I can’t review that, but for repairs they are tops.

I have purchased computers here in the past.
They are fine. When I did have a problem, they would honor their warranty and fixed the problem, free.
If you go in there not knowing what you really need. They will try to sell you things you might not need or a product that is not as great, workable but not the best on the market.
I would recommend this place, if you know exactly what you want. Also for $ 50 bucks they will put your computer together for you, if you just bring all the parts you want.

Actually had a good experience there recently, after computer was infected with a bad virus. They could not get rid of the virus and had to reformat /​wipe clean my PC, but they saved all of our photos first so we didnt lose them. Prices were reasonable and service was friendly. Would go back again if i have a problem.

The employees here assume you know absolutely nothing about what they’re talking about, so they tend to go into long and overwrought explanations and complex terminology.
The problem is that THEY have no idea what they’re talking about either.
They WILL try to pawn off some piece of crap onto you with more accessories than you will ever want or need, so steer clear.
SUGGESTION:
You’re better off shopping online for computer products, so you can read user reviews and weed out the crap products from the worthy (don’t ever trust in-​store salespeople — go straight to the customer base for recommendations). I highly recommend
for all your electronics and computer needs. I use them for everything, and I’ve never been disappointed.

This review goes back some ten years, but I still feel like I should post it because it was such an awful experience.
I think I got my second computer here. I was just a kid, but I had a decent idea of what I wanted in terms of CPU speed, RAM, hard drive space and such — the really basic stuff. I told the lady there what I wanted, but in perhaps an attempt to prove she knows more than I do, she furiously kept asking things like «What motherboard? How many PCI slots? What speaker? What brand? How many keys on your keyboard?». Eventually I shot back «Bitch, calm down, I’m *&@*(^ 11 years old». Yeah, not so good. They then suckered my parents into spending $ 1200 on a computer that had way more than I wanted or needed.
