Every time I've been in there all of the staff are helpful and courteous no matter what I am in there for. I would recommend this store to anyone who needs computer repair, building a computer, want the latest game, or just need some info on computer jargon in general.

My family I noticed that when I would get my screen on my iPhone repaired here it would start popping out and break more easily. One time my screen popped out and cracked as I was leaving the mall. When we went back to VGH to ask why they told us the frame was probably bent due to the phones design ...
