Let's update that logo just a bit...

We will be closing up shop effectively immediately. Things have been tight throughout this “pandemic” and would be even tighter in the future under this new tax plan. Since we wouldn’t be able to manage repair costs while still maintaining a profit, we have decided that now is the time to shut things down.

It’s been a pleasure serving Thief River Falls for the last 7 years and we hope we can stay in touch with the friends we’ve made in that time!

Form 1099-K reporting threshold lowered from $20,000 in aggregate payments and 200 transactions to solely a threshold of $600 in aggregate payments.

The Geek Shack will be closed for at least the remainder of September. One of our household members has COVID and I don’t want to spread that to my customers. We apologize for any inconvenience this creates.

We can make your PS4 or Xbox One more powerful and clean at the same time!
For $100 per console, we will completely tear down and clean your Playstation or Xbox, clean out all the dust, check fan operation, and apply new thermal compound and thermal pads.
For $225 (that’s a $25 discount!) we will provide the cleaning service AND upgrade your console to a 1 Tb Solid State Drive!

Look we get it. Next-Gen consoles are super hard to find right now and nobody wants to pay scalper prices. So what can you do about it?

Now is the perfect time to upgrade your PS4 or Xbox One’s hard drive to a Solid State Drive. This gives you super quick load times and even better performance while playing because your system isn’t trying to read off a disc drive. Flash memory is faster than a traditional hard drive in all aspects.

So what does this magic cost? $150 gets you next-Gen performance on your current machine. Call or message us to set up a time to do this.

Now for a freshly repaired Xbox One X. This beast needed the hard drive totally reset and the optical drive replaced. This was accomplished by doing an offline service update and swapping the optical drive’s daughter board into a new chassis. Time to get this owner back in the game!

Effectively immediately: The Geek Shack will no longer offer repair for Android mobile devices.
We are going to focus on iPhone/Apple repairs from this point on.

We apologize for any inconvenience this creates for our non-iPhone/Apple customers.

The Geek Shack will not be taking on any iPhone 8’s for repair until further notice. We apologize for any inconvenience this creates.

We now offer television repair as part of our service offerings!
If your LCD TV isn't turning on or working right, we can take a look and most repairs are a fraction of what it costs to buy a new TV! Give us a call or send us a message to set up your appointment. 218-269-1579, ask for the Geek. :)

*Cracked LCD TV panel repair is not offered as part of our services.
