    Your comparison is seriously ridiculous, as is the price for that service. Who the hell would charge $300 for "replacing parts"? I mean, that's about as much as the most pricy parts in a PC cost (well, depending on your system, that is). Unless the part you were replacing was a burned out CPU or GPU (and higher end ones for that price), $300 is an absolutely absurd price.

    Geek squad does charge some mess up price to just replace something. Just to see what wrong with your computer it easy 70+$ but that not the point. Who in the hell would pay 100+ for some guy to replace a part when you can do it yourself in 30m?

    I myself 3days ago open my computer and put new thermal paste on my cpu. In most case that is the hardest part for a normal person to do once you look it up on youtube and do it a few time you be set.
