We often get that dreaded call, "Help, I just spilled a drink into my laptop, what should I do?"  Everyone thinks they are so careful and it won't happen to them.  Unfortunately it happens too often to ignore.  Do you know what do if you spill a drink into or on your laptop?  A lot of times we hear it was working fine, then it just shut off, or it on't turn on at all.  Unfortunately, by this time the damage may already be done.  The very first thing that should be done is any and all power sources should be removed.  If you have a removable battery, take it out.  Many of the new laptops have batteries that are not accessible from the outside.  These should be taken to a repair facility such as The Apple Xchange so we can remove the battery promptly.

 

With no power to the computer, try to get it dried as quickly as possible.  If you can get it to us, we will remove the covers necessary and get it dried to minimize any damage.  We use a special process to then clean the logic board and electronic components to restore function and then to also prevent the spread of corrosion.  A lot of times after a spill the device will work just fine for a while.  If it is not treated properly, corrosion builds, like rust and eventually causes a failure.  Our process prevents this from happening.

 

If you take the machine to many places they will tell you it just needs to be replaced, or uneconomical to fix.  We find this is not really the case in many instances.  Often the keyboard is the first victim of a spill, and replacement of it, and cleanup of the rest of the machine can run under $250 on some laptops and will keep it working like new.  If you have a spill, call us, we would be happy to help get through it!  Most importantly, do something!

About The Apple Xchange PDF Print E-mail

The Apple Xchange was formed when a need was identified to provide good reliable Apple computers to the user community in the Phoenix area.  While most of us would prefer to go buy a computer brand new in the box it is not always practical.  New Apple laptops can be very expensive.  The Apple Xchange was created as a way to deliver the incredible user experience Apple users have always loved at a price that is more affordable than buying a brand new computer at a retail outlet.

 

The Apple Xchange thoroughly tests all computers sold to be sure they meet all the original specifications of the computer as it was new.  If anything fails the extensive diagnostic testing, parts are replaced using only top quality used or new parts.  In most cases genuine Apple parts are used to be absolutely sure all computers meet up to their original specifications.

 

The Apple Xchange maintains very low overhead and as a result passes the savings to you, the end user looking to buy a computer at a very reasonable price.  Our goal is to deliver computers at prices comparable to eBay auctions without the risk.  All computers sold by The Apple Xchange include a FULL 1 YEAR warranty.  The Apple Xchange will gladly fix or replace your computer within that FULL 1 YEAR and make sure you are completely satisfied.  It is our goal to make sure that you, the customer, is 100% satisfied with your purchase.  Our goal is repeat customers and referrals.

All computers sold and repairs are all done or supervised by the owner of The Apple Xchange. Alan Chook is an Apple Certified Mac Technician.

I just wanted to let you know I am loving the Macbook I bought from you guys a couple weeks ago.  It does so many amazing things and is working great for all my projects and writing.  I'm so glad I upgraded to the 8GB memory because it is so fast and I can have tons of programs open at the same time without it slowing down.  I rarely touch my PC anymore and the Macbook works great with my iPad on previewing my work.  I have given your website to so many people so I hope they will visit you.  Thanks again!  -  Mary

 

I wanted to thank you for providing wonderful customer service!  I purchased a laptop from you a month ago to replace and older laptop I was currently using.  The first one that I purchased had a dead pixel in the screen and since I am a photographer it made it difficult to work on my photos.  My husband called to ask about the dead pixel and was told to bring the laptop in.  When we did that you guys replaced it with another laptop, exchanging my hard drive!  I was shocked.  The level of customer service in your facility is phenomenal!  It has been a long time since we have left a place satisfied with our buying experience.  We recommend you to all our friends and co-workers!! - Sally

 

 

I purchased a Unibody Macbook from AppleXChange and the service was outstanding, and the product was fantastic. If you are ever find yourself in need of a fantastic computer, but tight on a budget, I would highly recommend this company as your first option. Very few company's selling refurbished apple products will stand behind the product like AppleXChange. I feel like I am rambling, but this company is fantastic. - Kirk

 

I recently purchased a MacBook from you for my wife. Thanks to your wise advice my wife did not need the high powered laptop I was prepared to buy. Most importantly, I want to thank you for your generous assistance after my purchase (having nothing to do with the purchase but with my computer ignorance). You now have another fan and one that will happily recommend your service to others. Thanks again. - Mark

 

Good Morning. It has been approximately a month since I bought the White Macbook from you and it has been nothing but exceptional. I have used it everyday since I left the store and there has been nothing wrong. I want to personally thank you for your service and commitment to your products. From my business you have definitely opened yourself a new door for business from Texas and Oklahoma! All of my peers want to know how did I score that deal! I simply replied "Apple Xchange". I finally got my iPhone 4 too. I love it!  - Evan

 

Hey Alan.  My sister Natalie ****** has been very pleased with the Mac book she picked up from you.  And the one I bought I have been using daily as my sole computer which I didn’t intend to do but it has been working great. - Dallan

 

Hi Alan. Bob and I are the couple from Colorado who bought the MacBook from you the day after Christmas. We just wanted to let you know how pleased we are with the MacBook and especially with you. The computer works great and when we called you for help when we were unable to connect wirelessly at home, you were gracious and helpful. I have to admit that after being on the phone with our Internet provider and Apple tech for a couple of hours without any resolution, I was a bit testy. I apologize if any of m y frustration was heard in our conversation. We are extremely appreciative of the professional way you handled the sale and helping us when we had a problem. Good luck to you in your business. It was nice meeting you and your wife. Have a wonderful 2010.

Thank you again.
Linda and Bob
P.S. If we are ever in need of another computer or if we know of anyone in your area who wants one, we will definitely recommend you.

 

It has been months since my purchase; my laptop is working GREAT thanks to you again! Highly appreciate your superb service, which I truly believe is second to none! Your extremely quick responses to my calls are critical as my business relies on my computer working great. And the fact that you spent hours working with me over the phone to help fix an issue that was not purchase related, clearly shows that you care about your customers, and passionate about your business. You have set the bar high, and I will continue to recommend you to anyone I know that needs assistance, or needs to purchase.. on that note ; please expect a call from one of my clients Miss Carmen; She will be calling you for purchase!   --Amen
