There’s never a good time to need an iphone 4s repair service, but it’s even more annoying when money is tight.  In the last year I’ve traveled to over a dozen countries, and by this point my bank balance is looking pretty unhealthy.  I wasn’t too pleased, then, to put a huge scratch in my iPhone 4s screen last week.

I could probably deal with the scratch if I’d had the phone for a long time, but I only bought the thing last month and I’m still very deeply in love with it.  Every time I see that darned scratch I feel a pain in my soul, so I have to deal with it.

As soon as I noticed the scratch I ran along to my local Apple Store and asked about their iPhone 4s repair costs, and I was dismayed to find that I’d have to pay well over $100 for a replacement screen.  I told them I’d think about it, went home and stared at my bank statement in a foul mood.

The following morning I had an idea.  I searched online for iPhone 4s repair and found a service that offered to replace the screen for less than half the price Apple were asking.  Bonus!

The moral of the story, then, is that it pays to shop around.  There’s your top tip for the day!
