Electronic Stores Near Me

Truly, from my heart

Let me explain. Four years ago, I bought an ASUS laptop (Vivobook 15) for almost €1,000 with a genuine Windows 11 installed (as is obvious when you buy a laptop from an electronics store). But today, 2026, after formatting the PC, Windows 11 decided that the license key was no longer valid, so now not only am I without a license key, but apparently the March 2026 update broke something in my int...

The loneliest customer in the electronics section

I've been working at a mid-size electronics store for about three years now. We get all kinds of people, the usual stuff, but there's this one regular I think about a lot. His name I obviously can't share but we all called him "the professor" among ourselves because he always came in wearing the same brown cardigan and carrying a little notepad. Every single week, sometimes twice a week...

Hope you backed up your photos, mom.

My mother is using my old iPhone 8+. She's been refusing to upgrade it for years, even though her provider would definitely give her a much better phone for free at this point. The battery is completely shot. Today I found out (after her phone was already almost dead) that the phone isn't charging anymore. She doesn't have a wireless charging pad so we don't know if it's just the lightning port, ...

Zombie apocalypse story - Feedback wanted

Hello everyone, I've posted this excerpt in a few different places and am just hoping for feedback as to whether it's any good or not. It's a fairly basic zombie short story that I'm working on just to tip my toes into the world of writing. \---- **C.1** John was driving along a quiet country lane, one tired eye on the road unfurling ahead of him, the other on his fuel gauge which was ne...

*UPDATE* buying a new Fujifilm x100VI in Tokyo

Akihabara Yodobashi - Sold out.. Bic Camera - Sold out.. ONODEN (from a tip on previous post) - Sold out.. very helpful and kind staff in this store, shout out to those guys. I gave up.. We then went to a sushi place...

Best electronics store

Looking to buy a refrigerator, need recommendations for a reputable place with competitive prices

The signage on the outside of a local electronics store (national chain) being AI really got to me today.

For the love of everything and everyone you hold dear, do not use Accra OS.

\[CW: No enactments, but mentions, and descriptions of suicide and suicidal ideation\] Two weeks ago, a salesman came to our small mountain town.  I never met him myself. All I know of him I learned through word of mouth. He came with the heaviest downpour the town's had in decades, in black boots two sizes too big for him, and a pallid yellow raincoat, with sleeves too wide for his wiry, frail...

Vintage electronic stores?

Hey everyone! Does anyone know of any vintage electronic stores? Preferably on the southern metro side as I am located in woodburn but can travel farther if needed. I am specifically trying to track down a VHS player, thank you!!

Is my childhood 3DS beyond repair?

My old 3DS has both of its hinges broken to the point that both screens are only connected by the ribbon (bronze color) and a wire on the left hinge of the console. Of course, it doesn't turn on, but because the only part of the 3DS missing is its left hinge, I have a tiny hope that it might still be possible to bring it back from the dead. Can anyone give me an autopsy or advice on what I can do?...

Is the Reilink cam b320 compatible with the Home hub?

Can anybody reliably confirm if the b320 cam is compatible with the reolink Home hub? A local electronics store here has a sale and sells them for 44€ including a solar panel - but I want to use the home hub as my camera central. A Google and reddit search gave conflicting answers on that question. Before I buy the home hub and 5 of the b320 I would like to make sure they work together 😅

Cracked screen in iPhone 16 pro

I need advice, my phone screen cracked as shown in the picture (red lines), no black pixels, front camera and face ID work fine, i can't really afford to have the screen fixed any time soon, can i have hydrogel screen protector put on it to prevent it from possible further cracking? I mean the kind of screen protector they "print on" your screen at electronic stores, I've heard mixed opi...

My Boss Fired Me… Then Called Me Back

So, this happened last summer… and I still can’t believe it. I had been working at this small electronics store for about a year. Nothing fancy… just selling headphones, chargers, TVs… normal retail stuff. My manager, Dave, was one of those guys who loved acting important. One afternoon, the store was packed… people everywhere, phones ringing, customers asking questions all at once. I wa...
