Love this fella. He rocks straight into the content, he doesn't NEED crappy intro/logo/music, he doesn't waffle, he doesn't push crappy VPN/sports drinks/etc, he stays on topic and ends once he gets the message across. Awesome man.
Yeah agreed. Huge put off is when a channel makes a 4 hour video on a 10 minute subject.
Great guy
Gangster: **gives Alex $2000 to basically stay silent about this laptop if anyone starts asking**
Alex: "So there was this gangster with a laptop in my shop today... "
🤣🤣🤣
hahaha he's in the LA region it might be a guy who flew in to do some job like Tom Cruise's character in the movie called Collateral.
@@samuellp1146so replace "gangster" with "drug dealer" lol
There's a Hunter joke in there, but I'm just tired of the news.
by the way he talks about negotiating, he is a gangster.
I like how your boss said ''Bismillah'' before starting with reassembling, you guys are awesome, especially you Alex, the smile on ur face when you fix something makes my day.
With "Inshallah" anything is possible. :)
Showing Big Boss reassembling, is an artform and a skill in itself. Relaxing to watch him do his thing!
Bet he loves jigsaw puzzles in his spare time. lol
Alex has great humor. Fun to watch how he repair. The men of men.
Nice to hear Alex regaling us with his tales of meeting drug dealers, LOL
Don't judge anyone
It Can Be someone in gambling or landromat Business as well
@@ErickBuildsStuff I think they were school teachers.
@@ErickBuildsStuff Yeah, could be, cos I know loads of legit business owners that walk about with "another man" carrying 10 grand in cash in a bag, LOL
@@ErickBuildsStuff laundromat like in breaking bad?
@@ErickBuildsStuff You know what all those cash businesses have in common right? Not just your clothes that are getting laundered. 🙂
We have learned, through experience, to never judge a book by its cover. Customers that leave tips like this should be embraced as small companies are fighting to stay above water. To jump the line and get something fixed instantly is worth a lot to the person that needs it. Sometimes a device with sensitive information stops working and needs to be recovered to get wiped and remove the sensitive data. Everything has a price and giving a tip this large and carrying around that much money, makes one question. Now we need to remember to never judge a book by its cover.
Yep, for that price, my guess is that client had a lot of sensitive data on that ipad, data that could make or break something quite big
I like the way you work and tell your stories, sometimes a bit sarcastic and with a bit of black humour, but it’s never dull.
Your prices seem reasonable . Some people have no idea how difficult your work is and how expensive your equipment and setup is.
@@Brianck1971I mean technically if the service involves him using said tools you’re paying for him to use his tools to service your item.
@@Brianck1971 Yes you are, you just don’t know it usually.
@Brianck1971 it's built into the price
@@Brianck1971 how about you take your cheap bum somewhere else lol, your the type to search on query cheap service lol
@@Brianck1971If the prices are too low is imposible to buy good quality equipment.
Modern electronics are complex if you don't have the tool is imposible to fix.
gave a thumbs up for this one.
was awesome to see big boss also work his magic.
thanks for adding him in!
Big Bo’s is an awesome guy to disassemble and reassemble all the devices that need soldering work. That’s one part of the soldering job I find “painful” at times: so having a guy like big boss take care of that side of “repair” is pretty awesome!
Also, do like looking at monitor for soldering now compared to looking thru microscope, like used to do. Enter on neck and other issues it caused, and as was learning curve; not going back anytime soon.
THX NRF for that awesome tip, and not for everyone, but I like it👍🏻
Im not the only one who enjoyed seeing Big Boos Reassemble the IPad, we need more of it!
Its a nice touch to the end of the videos and seeing big boss finish off the job.
you are one of the best technicians on youtube in my eyes, great work NorthridgeFix!
I have watched many many videos on this channel and used the knowledge I get here to fix a lot of devices I was supposed to return no fixes. Thanks Northridge Fix
Alex, you are a surgeon! Also, I really appreciate your no nonsense method of doing business.
"Customer comes back, Okay i wanna fix it, so $700? , no today we are doing it for $1000" 🤣🤣
Great video...a little longer with a good story and dialog, a successful repair/great soldering AND Big Boss! What more could you want?!?
Alex, good job as always. I think you should put a couple of videos out featuring Big Boss's disassembling and reassembling in real time. This might help people understand the cost as well.
Big boss is serious
Imagine people meeting him on the street and saying "hey Big Boss!"... ahah
always appreciate your motivational commentary about running your business. Gives us all more confidence in our value of work
The usual brilliant video. Thank you both.
You also, have to admire the work of big Boss, being able to take apart so many different devices and successfully put them together.
Absolutely fascinating, Alex you an electronics genius. You could repair a warp drive in a starship. Many best wishes to you and family.
I watch your videos everynight sometimes before sleeping because I feel relaxed when I watch your repair videos. I learn somethibg new everyday even though I only have soldering iron and lead. I still practice to be better technician someday.
i like how you explain the realities of cost of work. It helps show people the realities that a man/woman is worthy of his/her time, (even if there is no fix). and an editted youtube vid isn't an accurate indicator of how much work is involved.
wow , your microscope truly is super GOOD! ..NO MOTION Blur! Always see components clear when shaking..not only clear but it also seems to 'recognise' and display the flat board (background) and every element ,dust even, 'height' ..ontop as TWO seperate super clear layers!.. when screen jiggles its awesomeness is truly revealed . .its a beauty!. thanks i now know what im gonna buy myself for xmas. 🤩
Another great video, it's always awesome to see Big Boss working his magic.
The guy with the bag of cash, sounds like there was some extremely important info on that laptop he needed "obviously it was for the data as he clearly could have easily bought a new laptop" and by this "friend," how quickly he wanted to get out of there, and how much he paid. Probably a man who has more money than he can spend and for whatever reason you want to imagine doesn't want a lot of questions and keeps contact to a minimum. Not even going to speculate on his line of work, but it must have been nice to get such a good payday.
A relaxing video, a learning experience, and a story on top. Nice trifecta!
I think that’s my iPad that I sent in. Pretty cool to be able to see the repair! Thanks Northridge!
We Did It! Fantastic! Thank you Big Boss 👍👍
Finally, I'm back watching my favorite channel! Oh yeah, i got my cup of coffee and learning a new experience.
I think I love you! 💖
No ads! No sponsors! You are straight to the point!
And your stories are so entertaining!
And those guys with the red bag on money were more than likely criminals, "Don't ask any questions!" 🤣
Excellent work and work ethic!
This video was awesome tale's of good fortune and we got to watch big boss do his bit of the magic i hope to see more of this style video into the future.
Great story and video as usual Alex ..
Thank you Alex and Big Boss - that outro with Big boss is appreciated
Good morning all ☀️
Morning mate 👍
Gidday!
Good morning at 10:17AM... jeah just woke up 30min ago 😂🤣
4:30 Evening here
Thank you for sharing your business wisdom in this video 🌹
You have a awesome crew at your shop!
Big Boss is very professional in his work and is very positive and calm. thank you Alex for another great video and life lesson. I wish you a nice day ☺️
Great fix Tu you Alex for sharing your knowledge
Nice to see the final assembly. Kudos to Big Boss.
with all due respect to you and the Big Boss👍
Always an expert job! Well worth the bag of money =D
Always a nice smile of satisfaction when job well done 👍
the best vid for our morning cuppa tea,,,,,,,,, keep up the great work,,,,,
Amazing, great work, great fix. Thanks, greets
This was awesome. Great job
The King of Kings you are Alex ✌️
Your videos are therapeutic 🙂
Amazing how the flux keeps the solder on the pads with no bridges
Big Boss emegency asseble ipad 😃 Thank you Alex and BigBoss for the video.
Great work as always, I already knew they were microscopic but comparing it to a micro usb charging plug and my goodness, that is small, too small, too too small perhaps.
Good repair, another happy customer. Of course, what you need now is a small couch and free tea machine in reception, for undecided customers and QC's / Chinese / dealers with red bags, ho, ho.
Great work on a difficult device.
These guys are definitely rock stars!,
I like your story about the guy came to your store 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Great to see the Big Boss "segment"! :-)
I had a customer once who asked me how much would it be to replace the battery for an electic scooter that he would pay me for taking a look inside and get the battery details and measurements because he was going to order one from China. He already was expecting to pay about £300.
When I told him maybe it's the charger's fault, I'll take a look and test if you need a new battery or a charger.
Then, once I tested and saw he only needed a new charger for £30, he gave me £100 total so 3x times the price of the product.
based customer
Good job mate 👍
Alex cracks me up, funny dude 😂
Awesome repair job on the I-pad.. You are what makes america great, built on the backs of hard working immigrants who came to this country to make a better life for themselves and their children to grow up in.. My family itself immigrated to the USA after WW2 and German occupation of my father's country. To look for a better future..
dudes precision is insane! I dont think doctors performing chirurgical procedures are more precise than him
"If we don't start, we're not going to finish" Holy balls, that was profound. Fanfuckingtastic motivation and way of thinking. I love it. ~Chefs kiss~
You guys are fantastic, Huge help in diagnostics, Do you ever even need a oscilloscope?
Luvin Big Boss super assembly skillz endings. Remembering all the screw locations 😜
Amazing history
This episode is cool!
WE need to see Big Boss. working on disasembling stuff. great work like on every vidéo. hello from france
"if we do not start, we cannot finish." Wisest words from ma man :D
great video as usual Alex , may i suggest that you make your own ad containing everything that you sell with updated status instead of just listing them in each video because sometimes people don't concentrate in every word you say and even they watch the video muted , just a small suggestion ( it will be an extra work but it's worth it ) as for the 2000$ tip i think you deserve more because if anyone pays , he pays for your knowledge and experience , and truly you deserve to be appreciated considering everything you do on the channel , it's like the Joker's quote from the Dark Knight ( If you're good at something , never do it for free ) 😅 , أخوك نديم من مصر
people will just skip it if you do it like that. just let the man talk.
watching Alex and his comments muted? That's a blasphemy!
@@zoezebra4013 😁😁
@@zoezebra4013 Well, hearing for 100th time that they are major sellers of Amtech flux, everything he uses can be bought on their website, etc. can get kinda annoying pretty fast.
man big boss is awesome!
"I ask the question and I answer" absolute gold 🤣🤣
Nice and great job
Masha Allah, Nicely done!
What an amazing story about the $2000. As another poster said, you have a great sense of humour. I thoroughly enjoy your educational videos along with your commentary. I recently bought some merchandise from you, which I am delighted with but because it was shipped to the UK my thieving govt put a tax on it of £54. This isn't a criticism of you in any way, just a heads up to other UK customers. Another great fix and as much as I'm astonished by your skills, Big Boss makes putting devices back together look very easy when it isn't.
مشاهدة ممتعة اخي حسين و بالتوفيق ان شاء الله ومبروك البيت الجديد , منزل مبارك
I pay for service. Your service is appreciated, especially with a cash tip.
When you showed how small that chip was, kind of blew my mind. You must have the worlds steadiest hands.
Tell them no, have a cup of tea 😂😂. Too true, your work is great and worth every penny
I heard we can use reusable clay to cover the plastic connector to avoid melting
You scared me at 6:02 when you said "Look how many pads we ripped out", I thought they were actually ripped lol
Alex,..you are "the King of Liquid Metal"; Repairer of Choice for 'The Terminator.' ; Mentor of all 'Tech-Mechanics' ; Philosopher of The New Age ; High Priest of Micro-tronics ; Lord of the UV Demons ; Re-Inventor of Better-Than-Factory ; Prince of UV Masks ; Ruler of the 9th Dimention and Repairer of Choice to GOD... and you are still HUMBLE... I can't believe it !!! lol
Good content
I had experience of costumers giving more money than asked and comming back in the future 😁. When you are working with the people you will get good, bad, great and terrible.
I’m ready to replace my iPhone Tristar after watching all your videos and practicing
You could also Plug in the iPad and use a thermal Imaging Camera, to see where it gets hot
Perfect 👍
I like that we also now get to see Big Boss at work.
I Like the way you speak english 😊
exactly what i say when people want to bargain with me. "not a vegetable market, you want it or not?"
I like this guy , no bullshittery with him.
Dayuuuumm brooo, now mafia got ur back man 😂😂😂😂
Once again we did a good job
😂
cool of the "gangsta" story ! I enjoyed ! and wow what are those ipad parts small
Lol my heart dropped when the BGA chip was removed and I thought all those were ripped pads 🤣🤣
Perfect 👌
“So let’s start, because if we don’t start, we cannot finish.” Ah, another pearl of wisdom that reminds me of the ancient Chinese saying, “A long journey starts with a hot soldering iron.” How so very true!
Red bag guy.. everyone's favourite customer lol
