Cell phone repair in St. Mary's?

[Restless]

Hi! I dropped my iPhone 4 and shattered the glass on the front. Is there anywhere down here in St. Mary's that repairs them? I no longer have a contract with Verizon so I can't upgrade. I was thinking about using it with Tracfone if it is compatible. I hate the high costs of having a contract. I use my phone very little.

Thanks!

I think Radio Shack in St. Mary's Square does repairs.

Except, they closed a long time ago...

Really, looked open the other day when I walked by there. And by other day I mean Sunday

A bit distant, but I saw a repair place in Fredericksburg, right along Rt 3 near Rt 1. Just mentioning it, I'm sure there are places in Waldork that might be closer.

While I was looking for that address, I saw an ad for Staples. They apparently repair in-store.

something like this, if you have anyone whos sort of technically inclined. Has all the tools, and most importantly is that magnetic mat that guides you through the process

I had heard that rumor, but yes, it looks like it's open.

BLAIRS - they have a sign up that they can do iPhone screen repairs.

Well, it really is akin to jewelry repair, and I say thing having replaced 3 or so cell phone screens. And one phablet power port.

I still find it amazing that the RatShack in the square managed to avoid the massive shut downs. Must be doing some damn good business (even though I have never seen more than 1 other person in there when I have visited)

It's those insane markups.

I think they retooled and do mostly cell phone business now - I want to say Sprint

I like the people at Blairs too.

Like an electronic mullet, its phones up front, electronics in the back AS far as I know, all the little bits and pieces are still there in the back. Pick bins, tools, etc.
