Great service
Over all my step son love this computer he likes the performance of the system. It was so easy to use the mobile app to complete the purchase, and I went to the store in millennia to pick it up. The lady who handed it to us was so friendly. I told her we were celebrating his birthday and she even gave him a trading card, that was so nice of her.
