It's a dying market. Millenials just throw their shit in the trash and buy a new one because it's so cheap now (driven by the fact that laptops really aren't that much powerful since 2013).

This, in some cases it's cheaper to order a component online and replace it than to take it to a shop to have it fixed. The only thing I'll pay for is hard drive repair.

It's always cheaper.

But it takes years of experience to have the knowledge to find THE piece that's damaged. Then you gotta actually find it.

As Louis fixes mainly Apple boards, this really is the only market keeping him in business. Other laptops just aren't worth repairing because they have little resell value.

No, in order to make money you have to gouge people. To replace a fan at the shop I worked at would cost a person a 100$
