I got an imac G5 1.9 with video issues. I found a classified ad on Ebay for a company in the states that fixes the video. I sent it off to them and the nightmare begins. After a a few days (Canada post said it was delivered) they "finally" found it. After another week I email and phone to see the status and no answer of the phone, and no return emails. Getting through to them was like finding Santa Claus.
I finally get ahold of a guy and he says Mark who, from where (here baby crying in the background) After a few more days nothing not a mention. I send an email to ebay they don't do anything because he is just a classified ad. Another week goes buy I finally get ahold of him and he is like yeah we will get to it tomorrow. He finally emails back after I file a complaint with ebay saying it was fixed and he will send it out. 4 days go by so I thought I would call. Oh! I am having problems with shipping I will get to it tomorrow.in the meantime I have paid for the repair $100 via Paypal and am just waiting for the board in the mail. 2 days go by nothing saying he shipped it. 2 more days go by. I finally complain to Paypal about this transaction. The next day the guy refunds my money and sends my Logic board back by UPS (Cost me $55 bucks!). I put the unit together and it's not even fixed still the exact same. (This was a present for someones nephew I am so bloody pi$ed off. I have decided to part it out and recoup my money. The company is GPU medics. After some online search I should have known better not to deal with them. Why did he tell me it was fixed. Here is his email to me.
