## How It Works
**We already know what's wrong** (cracked screen, RAM upgrade, obvious issue):
1. Pay $200 at drop-off. We fix it. Pick up when ready.
**We need to figure it out first** (won't boot, random shutdowns, weird behavior):
1. **Drop Off & Diagnose** - Pay the $60 diagnostic fee (tax included). We send you a same-day report with exactly what's wrong and an estimate to fix it.
2. **Approve & Repair** - You approve the estimate, we order parts and complete the repair. Most repairs done in 3 business days. Your $60 goes toward the repair, so you only pay the difference at pickup.
3. **Pay & Collect** - We notify you when ready. Pay your remaining balance and pick up your fixed device with warranty documentation.
**Either way, repairs start at $200.** The $60 diagnostic is the first $60 of the $200, not extra.
