Sioux Falls Circuit & Rig Co.West Side Sioux Falls — handoffs by appointment

Appointments

How does an appointment work?

Ask for an appointment and describe the device. We confirm the time and the exact public meeting spot by text, then meet you there for the handoff.

See the appointment steps
What happens at the handoff?

We photograph the device, record the serial, collect your signature, and take the $49 by tap-to-pay.

Read what intake records
Where do we meet?

At a camera-monitored lot, a coffee shop, or a police safe-exchange zone on the west side of Sioux Falls. We confirm the exact spot by text.

See public handoff options
How does the return work?

The device comes back at a second handoff, after the fix is tested, and we re-check the symptom you described.

Prices and estimates

Is the $49 diagnostic an extra fee?

No. It is credited toward your repair when you approve the work.

See the pricing rules
Why can a flat rate change?

A flat rate covers the named job. If diagnosis finds different work or a part, the estimate changes.

Read the full rate list
What does written approval mean?

Work pauses until you approve any change to the work or price in writing.

Read the repair terms
When does no-fix, no-fee apply?

It covers power-supply, storage, thermal, and software jobs. Board-level and liquid-damage work keeps the credited $49.

Every resold console and GPU is erased before it is listed, and the device includes a printed certificate.

Call or email before you request an appointment. We will say whether a handoff on the west side fits.
