There is this place in my town called the IT Center. The village is called Gilmore. There are plenty of stores here that offer services for laptop, mobile, tablet and others. I accompanied my friend for a laptop reformat and windows installs. While waiting for the work to be done, I thought of LetranKnight who is having problem with his laptop. And before we get into the building, the spotters from different establishments are all over the place approaching consumers to tell them where to go. We already know where the repair store was. So I told the guy I am heading to their store.

It is rampant here maybe because we need repairs.

i've heard of that place, how that area has become a computer/cellphone/gadget hub. even in the small malls, they do that - trying to attract customers because competition is quite fierce

They are adamant to offer their repair services.

@jobelbojel yes, even if you're just inquiring about something, they won't stop. or if you're only there for one item or one service, they will offer/insist additional things

All the repair stores have closed here, to rent a place is too expensive and with the low prices of laptops they cannot charge a big amount.

Exactly. Renting a place is ideal for businesses.

@jobelbojel A small shop (or store) costs no less than $2,000 here (for 1 months) you have to pay the same the guy who stay inside, this is why they have all closed.
