    Awhile back my laptop died the horrible service at bestbuy did there best to bandaid it every time i brought it in, it always had problems coming out of there "care".
    They once sent it to me told me it was working fine i get home and the hard drive wasn't screwed in (Are you kidding me?)

    So after i had to strong arm them into looking at it 1 week after warranty they told me my motherboard was fried. so the issue i have is it worth buying a new motherboard for it? i loved that computer and until they messed it up worse every time it worked fine.

    TLDR

    asus g60vx motherboard is it worth buying one from ebay and if so what should i look for?

    sorry if wrong part of the forum friend recommended i ask for advice here

    Go back to best buy and slash the tires on all the geek squad mobiles. Then sell your broken laptop on ebay and buy a new one.

    And make sure you don't get caught. There are security cameras watching the entrances so leave those cars alone. The ones parked elsewhere are fair game.
