Zach.

Thanks for that. Good resource. Third party repair is very important.
Ability to work on Apple computers it's pretty common. Ability to get
reimbursed for those repairs under warranty through Apple rather than
having to charge the customer directly it is harder.

Apple is doing a similar thing right now with iPhone repairs. Where 3rd
party stores like us repair them and often do it for less than Apple
does... Apple not only voids any warranty on the phone but also refuses to
ever fix it again if you get it fixed by a third party first. Thankfully
they're still doing all the trade-in deals and most things can be just
fixed by a third party or trade in. On the flip side we started seeing
actual Samsung OEM phones screens available on the secondary market for
replacement
