I walked into 73inc 9 years ago and I have never left. From cell phones that the kids have broken to computers that have stopped working on me. Enzo and his crew have never let me down. My computer died 3 months ago. Enzo stayed open till 8;30pm just for me. I was in trouble, I left that night with a working computer ready for the next day. That is the customer service that keeps me going back that just doesn't exist in any where else.

Ross Alaine Ortile

I highly recommend Enzo! He provided fast, friendly, and amazing service. My laptop had a battery issue, and he fixed it quickly. So far, my laptop has been working perfectly, and the new battery is working great as well. He was very helpful and made the whole process easy and hassle-free. I’m very happy with the service and would definitely recommend him to anyone who needs laptop repairs. Thank you so much, Enzo! 😊

Great Service, my iphone stopped working and 73inc had it fixed within the day. The owner is super nice, he could have tried to up-sell but I felt he gave me honest advice with the least $ to spend. Highly recommend!

I’m not fluent with technology and these guys assist me with patience and integrity. I know I am always getting the best product and solution for my requirements. I cannot rate 73Inc highly enough.

Good service, and able to support older Macs. They were prompt and provided excellent updates

Will Luxton

It was a fantastic experience dealing with 73 inc. They responded immediately to my inquiry, and provided all the information I needed for my MacBook Air repair. I dropped it off late in the afternoon and it was ready first thing the next day. They were very proactive in keeping me up-to-date with the repair status, and provided an amazing service. Will happily use them again!
