Mission Repair East or West?

Hello everyone,

We’re making history today; the time has come and today will be the last day of Mission Repair “the old way”!

Starting Monday, 2/2/15, we are now splitting the country into halves for shipping and efficiency purposes.

If your Shipping Address location is shaded YELLOW ship to:
Mission Repair
(ATTN: YOUR ORDER NUMBER)
3234 S. Wadsworth Blvd.
Unit I
Lakewood, CO 80227

If your Shipping Address location is shaded GREEN ship to:
Mission Repair
(ATTN: YOUR ORDER NUMBER)
19943 W. 162nd St.
Olathe, KS 66062

Additionally, if you order an email shipping label from us, we will automatically pick the most efficient store for your device to be shipped to. It makes shipping, receiving, repair and turnaround more efficient, faster, and in the end better for all of our customers. Additionally, with this new location in Lakewood, Colorado that will be open on Monday, you can also visit us and walk-in your device for repair as well! that’s the idea behind this master plan and in fact, I’ll be in Lakewood on opening day Monday to say hello to all of our new customers.

Until then, thanks for reading and we’ll be back soon with more great info only found here at the Mission Repair blog!

Take care, Ryan

Just double check that pricing…

Hello all-

I’ve got a new iPhone 6 that’s giving me trouble. The home button is acting funny, luckily I’m still under warranty and I’m going to be able to get it replaced from Apple under warranty. That’s great news for me albeit Apple will swap my device and I’ll have to restore it from a backup, but in the grand scheme of things I’ll get it done.

Mine is a bit “sticky”. I’d open it myself, but it’s under warranty so I don’t want to risk it!

What I found interesting though, is Apple’s repair pricing for their iPhone lineup if you’re NOT covered under warranty. For example, they would charge me $329 for the home button issue if it was out of warranty.

I dug a little deeper and looked at the iPhone 5s, 5c and 5 repair pricing and I was blown away. $269. Really? $269?!? iPhone 4 repairs are $149? Here at Mission Repair we’re doing the iPhone 5 line of screen replacements on these devices for $92 each. Apple is charging $269? Seems a bit over-priced to me, AND the customer doesn’t get their phone back, but rather a “blank” replacement. So there’s a lot of work that needs to be done to get the data back on there for some people.

We don’t erase your data, unless you ask us or authorize us to do so; so you’re going to get your device back in the same configuration that it was sent in. That’s the good news. And oh yeah, our price doesn’t make you want to lose your mind. Screen repair pricing is based on reality, not fantasy.

Bottom line is that it pays to double check your pricing, and we’re happy to be an essential part of the iPhone repair movement. After all, we’ve been here since the beginning and we’re here to stay.

Take care, Ryan

Same Day iPhone 5C Screen Repair

The weekend is on it’s way and this is often a busy time during the week. Why you might ask? Because customers want to get their iPhone repaired in time for the weekend!

There is a better way to live! We take our phones everywhere with us and when our devices don’t work correctly it can throw your whole day off. There is a simple solution for this so why not take a moment and bring your device to Mission:Repair.

Super Bowl Sunday Is A Frightening Event For Your Phone.

The big game is this weekend! On Sunday, February 1st the Seattle Seahawks take on the New England Patriots and it is a day many football fans dream about all year long. With Superbowl Sunday also comes large amount of delicious food, lots of drinks, fun times with friends and family, and one more thing… a cracked phone. That’s right. It is a frightening time for your phone! Whether you have an iPhone 6, Galaxy S 5, HTC One, Nokia Lumia, etc. While Mission:Repair is here for you if anything happens to your device, we have also come up with a few tips on how to prevent any accidents during the game.

1. Keep your phone away from beverages. It is so easy for a drink to get knocked over in a intense football game. While everyone is huddled around the TV sharing a couch, beverages are bound to get knocked over so play it safe and steer clear of laying your phone down by full cups.

2. Keep your phone away from food. This may sound weird but you’d be surprised. If you’re checking Facebook on your phone over a plate of food, there is a chance your device could drop into cheese dip, baked beans, etc. It’s safest to keep it away from the delicious food.

3. Don’t hold your phone in your hand during the game. Sounds simple right? It may be harder than you think. During the game, be sure to leave your phone in your purse or pocket. This will prevent it from being spiked when celebrating a touchdown.

4. Protect the phone. If you don’t already have a case or screen protector on your device – now may be a good time to purchase one. While cases can’t completely prevent your device from being cracked or damaged – it can help reduce the chances of your phone resulting in a cracked screen.

These tips may be a bit extreme and accidents are bound to happen during an exciting event like the Super Bowl. If for any reason your phone becomes a victim of a cracked screen, is damaged by water or has any other issues after the big game – be sure to call the experts at Mission:Repair (866-638-8402). We repair just about any smartphone on the market and our certified technicians know their stuff. We will repair your device and get it back to you good as new.

Mission Repair in Denver. Open next Monday!

Hello again friends, as we wrapped up a few final details this weekend at our Lakewood store, we were able to slip out of the Denver area yesterday at about 3:00pm for the drive back to Kansas City. As I was sitting in the car, I snapped this lovely shot of Lennie just below our temporary sign that was installed yesterday morning:

Yes, we were in construction mode and maybe it’s not the “best” picture of him, but we’ll get a laugh out of it anyway. Our new LED sign will be installed in a few weeks, but until then you’ll be able to find us as we just got our Google + page and Facebook fan page built for this new location.

A few more days here in Kansas City and I’ll haed back with our Store Manager to unlock the doors and greet our new Denver area customers. Stay tuned and we look forward to sharing more get pic (not of Lennie) soon!

Take care, Ryan
