Written by the company

So we decided as a family we would open a Small Repair shop in Pallion in Sunderland back in January 2009 Geekys was born. We sharp out grown this space with the success of Geekys. From there we decided to move to Sunderland City Centre with over 3500 sq feet of space.  We then launched a sister company called Harrys game shack up stairs in Geekys but the space was quickly too small and we had to relocate it we now have over 90 spaces making use the largest and the best gaming venue in sunderland.  We have now just launched a second store in Newcastle Eldon Garden. with Harrys game shack in side.    Geekys has now started to trade online to bring them great deals all over the uk.  Our family just keeps getting bigger and with lots more stuff to come in the future for Geekys and Harrys game shack.

Reliable and friendly stores

Amazing store! I have had all my repairs done here for years, the lads are super helpful and always get the job done for me. Seen their website recently too and ordered a few odds and ends when i’m feeling lazy and can’t be bothered to walk to town. Quality products, would recommend this place to anyone.

Avoid Online Store

This review relates to their online store. I would never use them again. It has taken me from Dec to Feb to get a refund on a faulty/damaged item and had to escalate the complaint through PayPal to get the refund.

I originally ordered a new Gaming Chair in Dec. A couple of days later they said their stock levels were incorrect and they only had a display one but that it was in very good condition with only the original box missing. I received a £10 refund.

What I received was a chair with a tear in the leather and all the assembly parts loose in the box and no instructions . So I had no idea if it was complete. Also the hydraulic system seemed faulty. So the chair was returned at my own expense expecting a full refund.

They agreed a refund minus delivery and return costs. However twice PayPal couldn't complete the transaction (reason unknown). So I had to escalate a complaint and refund via PayPal.

So avoid at all costs.

I purchased a phone case from them and it wasn’t until I got out the shop that I realised the phone case didn’t fit my phone as camera would not line up even though it was for my phone size , I then went back to the shop to ask for a refund , they told me that they had definitely refunded me and that it would take a few days to go into my bank so I waited patiently and there was still no refund even after a week so I went back to the shop and complained and they told me it was the banks fault and I’ve never been refunded since.

Will never order again from these guys

Will never order again from these guys. My order arrived damaged (game case) as it was poorly packaged I contacted them for a partial refund and was only offered the price of a replacement case £4.45. So now I have to try and swap over the sleeve to another case myself and got nothing back from them for there shoddy performance. An offer of £10 for the trouble would have been nice but they obviously need to claw every penny from you the customer. Swerve these lot at every chance. Also have just noticed the Donkey kong game case is cracked as well so both games damaged will have to replace both. I wanted some compensation for your shoddy performance. I suppose if had accepted a full refund I would have had to pay to return? Joke of a company and I am certainly no liar. Hope you go bust have a nice day!

Reply from Geekys

Hi, I’m confused by this rating as i thought we came to an agreement that you were happy with. We offered you a full refund, a replacement case or the money for a case replacement. Which is plenty of options for you to choose. To which you accepted the money. You asked for a £15 refund which is way over the price of a game case. We would have paid the post back to you wouldn’t be out of pocket at all. I suggest in future you be more clear with what you are happy with before accepting an outcome as leaving negative reviews after the fact wont get you any more money back. It’s concerning how you would lie in a public post then claim you aren’t a liar. We won’t go bust however. We are doing fabulous. Have a nice day.

Avoid. Sold a faulty item and no refund.

I went in with a faulty Ethernet cable (one which I had bought from there a few days earlier) to be told that they don’t do refunds, only store credit. They asked if I wanted to exchange it for another one however, I was abit wary that this one wouldn’t work either. So to keep what money that was owed, I had to fork out even more money to buy something I didn’t even need. Very disappointed.
