What makes Saved Game different
[EDIT IN YOUR OWN VOICE] Saved Game is one person doing the work, not a repair hub. That means you speak to the person holding the soldering iron, and the awkward jobs get diagnosed properly rather than written off. A good share of the work is board-level: tracing shorts on power rails, replacing components at chip and capacitor level, and repairs like PS3 YLOD that other shops in the area have refused.
Prices are fixed per job once quoted, shown in whole pounds, with no hidden extras. Diagnostics are charged at 15.00
Trade repairs for other shops
[EDIT] Saved Game takes console and board-level work from independent repair shops that want to offer these repairs to their customers without building the skills or kit in-house. Trade partners deal with James directly. Trade enquiries.
