Staples TekDry is one of the BIGGEST SCAMS in the repair business. What does this box do, and how do the electronics put into it leave? Let's find out!

Tekdry being a scam is well known knowledge in the repair industry, but few end users are aware of this scam. Staples doesn't even open your device. They toss it in a box that does NOTHING! They allow you to walk away thinking your device is fine when in reality it is continuing to corrode. It will fail shortly after they have your money. DO NOT give Staples money to repair your electronics, because THIS IS HOW THEY REPAIR THEM.

Don't take my word for it: read how TekDry works. At no time do they open the device for a proper ultrasonic cleaning/solder job/repair. They don't even use a q-tip and alcohol. They don't even OPEN your device.

Do not let yourself or your friends fall victim to this scam. You're better off just opening the device with a screwdriver yourself and cleaning it out.
