“She Is Now Demanding $2,000”: Student Leaves Laptop For Repairs, Comes Back 9 Months Later

Who wouldn’t want their laptop to work forever? Unfortunately, things wear out and break down, so you need to eventually either repair it or replace it. Experts claim that if your laptop is five years or even older, there’s really no point in getting it fixed; a new one is your best bet.

It might be hard to believe, but sometimes people forget they even have a laptop. At least this young woman did, when she brought it to an electronics repair shop and forgot to collect it for almost nine months. When she finally remembered, the laptop was already sold to someone else. So, she felt it’s only right the repairman pays her back so she can buy a new one.
