Thriftking Computer in fredericton | Best Phone, Laptop, and Computer Repair Services at Affordable Prices | Quick Fixes

4/5 stars. I honestly want to give the man 5, but truthfully it should be a three.

With the cards stacked against shop owners and rent prices always on the move, it’s not hard to see the struggle.

Odd start to a review, eh ?

ThriftKing has it all !!! (I assume)
Upon pulling into the parking lot, you are greeted by an older style office complex that may or may not share room and board.

Walking to the entrance, you are given the impression of a wide – if not deep appearance of a shop, something similar to your typical pawn shop layout.

Upon entering however, you are greeted by a single room, no larger that 15×20.

There are two rows of industrial shelving going the length of the shop, one shelving unit directly beside the entrance, and one further back against the wall.

All stocked and stacked, floor to ceiling. AIOs, fans, controllers, towers, ram, hard drives, wifi adapters…. The list goes on and on and on… I again assume they have everything..

But you’ll never know !!

Their website gives you flashbacks to MySpace, and Netscape navigator. It is slow, hard to navigate, and isn’t complete.
It’s shows potentially 1/10th of their stock.

Back in the shop, you still have no idea what all is to be purchased. Nor the price of anything. Not sure if you’re aloud past the cashier’s desk, with the lone employee clicking away at their PC. Not much of a talker.

I walked in looking for a wifi adapter, and walked out with a reasonably priced wifi adapter.

Did I want to explore? Maybe.
Would I have spent more, if I were aloud to explore? Definitely.

ThriftKing… Let me explore your store..
Let me see what you have..

You’re all Freddy has…

I recently built a new PC, and could not get it to boot up. I took it to Thriftking, and they had my issue diagnosed and resolved in a matter of hours! I then had some further, separate issues with installing Windows upon taking it home, so I brought it right back. They were very patient with me, and helped me out for the second time in the same day. The labor was fast and very fairly priced.

I can not recommend Thriftking enough. If you need new PC components, or help troubleshooting your current PC, they are 100% the way to go. I look forward to doing business with them whenever I do my next build in the future!

Phenomenal prices and service.

I was initially skeptical because of how good the prices were, but after visiting Bill first, I decided to buy from him. He built me a computer to my specifications that transcends cultural standards of beauty. It was cheaper than anywhere else I could find and one of the most neatly put together towers I’ve seen. I will certainly be dealing with Bill again in the future. I will also update this review if I experience any issues down the road.
