My laptop does not charge because the connection inside the computer is bad. Only thing I need is a guy that can handle electronics and has a soldering tong... anyone knows of a reliable guy in Sosua/Cabarete area.

Thank you in advance.

No offence to this guy Ramon (I don't know him), but I've found that computer store to be the biggest ripoff around.

A while back I went shopping for an LCD monitor. I found a Dell at CeduComp for 8000 pesos. The same model at that computer store was 13000 pesos. I told the sales person about the difference and all they did is laugh and repeat "13000 pesos".

I've talked to a lot of people about computer hardware/software in my time here. I tell them the same thing: "Avoid the ripoff place behind Bailey's".

Look, I know nothing about either of these stores, but a single price comparison does not make a "ripoff place." Have you found this to be a consistent trend? Is one selling opened/returned/refabricated goods and the other new goods?

With electronics even a few extra features can make even very similar models price differently.

Even if the goods in question are identical, there could be differences of service and warranty, and besides, a single quote does not necessarily make a trend.

Of course, you may be completely right.
