I had a wonderful experience with this business. I worked directly with Eric and Christina and they were both wonderful! Eric was so knowledgeable and personable. Not only does he know his stuff about computers, he's a very kind person. I worked with Christina remotely. She too, is so knowledgeable and answered all my questions. I feel the pricing was very fair and I got my computer back in a timely manner.
This place is amazing. Cristina was extremely helpful when I called. The store is currently under construction, but still open. I was looking for a small screw for my doorbell chime, and I needed a radio shack. Since radio shack is a thing of the past, Rising Sons computers and electronics came to the rescue! Extremely helpful and very kind. They were able to help me get what i needed.
Man I cant say enough about this company!!! I came in on a whim, after a really bad experience trying to upgrade my system. From day one, they have been nice and transparent with me about what I need, should do, and all the possibilities of upgrading. This was a great time and a wonderful experience. I already plan on using them when designing my daughters desktop, and for many more upgrades to come. I also look forward to them opening there new building and come to support and check it out!
The store is rarely open,will not respond to phone calls,only ask to leave message and doesn't return call
Eric and Christina were such a pleasure to work with. Eric got my computer up and running in no time and communicated through every step. Highly Recommend!
With an English essay deadline looming, my son needed his damaged laptop screen to be repaired promptly. Rising Sons was personable and upfront about our repair cost options. They helped find us the most affordable replacement screen without sacrificing quality. They even worked late on the day the screen was delivered to get the job finished as quickly as possible. They truly went above and beyond to help us!
Can't recommend more! I had a pretty niche computer need surrounding old-school gaming, and the owner went out of his way to accommodate me, making sure I had everything I needed. Give them a call/email for ANY kind of computer, tech, or electronics need, whether it's for sales, service, maintenance, repair, or customization.
I've been dealing with Rising Son for years and so has my best friend. I can't say enough about this company. Eric is amazing with his technical knowledge and ability to fix things. I don't trust my electronics to anyone else. He's also very reasonable on his prices and much cheaper than other competitors that I originally checked with before dealing with Rising Son. Quality work, superior customer service, trustworthiness on sensitive information on my laptop, quick turnaround times and reasonable pr

I would not hesitate to recommend his business to anyone!! You will be surprised because Eric is a person who can do many different types of work, just ask him. THANKS ??
I was very pleased with Rising Son. The owner, Eric was very knowledgeable of computers and software and he is passionate about his work. He is very easy to talk to and has a nice smile. It took him all of 20-30 secs to point out problems with my laptop. I explained what I needed and wanted to do on the laptop and he quickly offered suggestions. I found his prices to be reasonable and he got my laptop back to be in the time he estimated the job to be completed. I would definitely recommend Rising Son for co

Eric, the owner, goes above and beyond to make sure you get the best service and deals. He is very professional,knowledgeable, kind and helpful in so many ways. His employees are great.

my experience was extremly good. Mr Gordon was very professional, spoke with clarity, and displayed great pose. I got to interact with people I would have never me. Thank you for allowing me to take this class for free. Wish others know about this class.
The best experience ever in fixing my laptop. The repair was completed on the exact day they stated and I'm very happy with the outcome. Friendly and very knowledgeable staff. I'm glad I decided to come here. They went above and beyond what I expected. I highly recommend this company!
Rising Son's did an AWESOME job on my laptop. It was cleaned and the henges were fixed. In fact, Eric made it a point to keep me updated until the job was done. He made it easy to conduct business with this company. And In the meantime I was given a loaner. I usually don't give referrals, but this is the best place to have your electronics fixed!!!!
Amazing. Great help. I bought a dell gaming system that I'll use for video editing and game. And I got a really good deal on a I7!!!
Hands down my go to electronic repair place from here on. Fixed my MacBook Air after water damage and Apple telling me to replace because the cost of repair would be same as buying a new one. Completely fixed at a fraction of the price and only took a few days. Thanks for helping me out!
From the first moment I walked into Rising Son's in search of a computer for my home Eric and his employees were so professionally and friendly. He took the time to show and explain the stock that he had on hand to me and to help me to choose what he felt was the best fit for my need (which was over six years ago). His knowledge and concern help me to build a very trusting relationship with him and I never have to worry when leave my computer in his care. I am praying that Eric will be around for years to
Rising Son's installed Quick books software and all POS systems/computer wiring for several locations of ours for over 10 years. This Repair service couldn't have done a better job. They finished my computer repair early and for the exact price they quoted, When my software needed updated. All the staff are professional and very personable, Everyone at this location was completely courteous, helpful and professional. Mr. Gordon and Jay was very eager to help me find the solution that was right for my busin
I took a free computer class at the Broad Rock Library, Sponsored by the Richmond Department of Aging and Disability, taught by Eric Gordon. He did an excellent job working with about 12 students. He was very knowledgeable and gave us good tips on how to succeed in our task of learning how to manever around the computer. We could actually create a flyer at tne end of the four days. I would love to take another class to get more versed in doing other things with the computer.
What can I say about Rising Son? I have been dealing with Eric for almost 20 years and he is a very good guy. He will not rip you off and he is extremely honest with any questions or issues that may come up with your repairs. He is very community oriented and supports and supplies many charitable organizations. He's not one of those big box chain stores. He takes pride in his work and I would recommend him over anyone else. If you are looking for any old school game systems he's your man. Try him out and yo
Eric of Rising Son's Computer was fantastic. He was so patient and was also very thorough. Once installed, he explained how to use this awesome system and ensured I had no questions before hanging up. We need more knowledgeable and thorough people like him.
There are very few people in the computer field that are as competent, customer service focused and trustworthy as Eric and his team! Living hours away, I have taken my five year old laptop to Eric twice for service. On both occasions the issues have been resolved quickly and without the need for major hardware updates. Want to save yourself time, money and frustration? Have them bench test your PC. You will be amazed at the difference it can make!
I participated in a free intermediate computer class for four session at the Richmond Library. The instructor was patient with each participant regardless of our level. His knowledge base on navigating the internet was very interesting, and each assignment we practiced was beneficial. I was recommend this FREE class!
Very friendly atmosphere and Mr Gordon and team very professional. I have used their remote services on several occasions and problem were resolved in an expedient manner. Prices are also very good as well. Please stop by you will not be disappointed.
Absolutely the epitome of professional. If you want your devices taken care of this is the place. Eric really went out of his way to help get my switch repaired. Repairs take time when they are done correctly and with care, which is why i didn't mind the wait for my device. I also was able to purchase a chromebook! Anything you can think of electronic wise that needs work, this is the place to call. If you're looking for sound equipment or devices you can buy it all here! If they can't fix it or don't have
We have had what we considered major issues with out computer getting hack and not responding or working, I was recommended by a friend to Eric at Rising Son's.He has been very helpful and expertly fixed it for us. His knowledge of computers is amazing. Let's just say without his help in repairing our computer it was so close to being thrown out the window!!
Eric & Dan have been life savers!!! They came out super late at night because we couldn't have our system down during business hours!!! They are so nice! Really easy to talk to and explained everything to me!!! I would 10 out of 10 recommend them to everyone if you need computer help!!!!
I am a very satisfied customer! My experience there was great. The service was excellent and Eric was a genius at knowing exactly what type of equipment I needed for my work load. Not only did I get the help I need in--store, I receive technical assistance when I was elsewhere. I recommend this business to everyone in need of electronic assistance!!!
I have been dealing with Rising Son's and Mr. Eric K. Gordon for many years now and I always get the very best and most professional service of any where I go. Eric is so knowledgeable about computers, cameras, etc. I don't care what I take to him he fixes it for me in prompt fashion. I am always calling him a "Genius"..Thank you Mr. Gordon. Ronnie Miller
I had a great experience with the computer class taught by Mr. Eric Gordon. The class was very informative, and I look forward to more training. Thanks to the RPL for offering this free course.
Rising Son? Computer Clearance & Electronic Repair has been my go to location for 19 years for my custom built computers, software, hardware, and computer application training. Eric Gordon, the owner, and his staff of PC technicians are honest, welcoming, and knowledgeable. The staff patiently explains to the customer what services are provided, as well as what computer, printers and accessories, joysticks, and video games, etc. the customer needs to fulfill his/her wishes. The staff offers support for al
Eric is my go-to computer resource. He not only knows computers and electronics but also has an excellent understanding of business operations. He does not try to oversell the customer and his focus is on getting the client just what they need at the right price. Eric's ethics and business practices are first-rate, and I would recommend his services to anyone without hesitation.
Eric was great, what else can I say. I took a security system DVRecorder to him to have repaired In February. He diagnosed the problem and ordered the parts needed for the repair. When he called me to let me know that he had finished we were in lock down. He held it for me for 2 months until we were both comfortable meeting again.Everything is now back up and running again thanks to Eric and his staff. Danny APCA
They were fantastic. Covid precautions were followed. They offer so many services. I was just picking up a Wish order so I can't comment on their repair services. I can say they were friendly and definitely knowledgeable. Give these folks a call for help. You will not be disappointed.
Excellent full service computer shop for both individuals and small to medium business. Sells and upgrades commercial grade computers. They sold me a great little Dell, upgraded it to an SSD for speed, and upgraded the video card for home theater use. He then advised me on serious level of mass storage. Now I have all of my movies and music at my fingertips and at a great price!
Enrolled in the intermediate computer classes thru the City of Richmond. We met on Tuesdays. It was an excellent class. I know some things about computer but he taught us how to create our onw flyers. He showed or explained certain areas of the internet. I learned a lot.
We have purchased multiple computers & other items from the Rising Son?s Computer Clearance & Repair. The level of service was excellent & they offered the best price. We love this store & Eric Gordon is awesome to work with.
Eric and his entire crew are top notch technical folks with the added benefit of being professional, personable, and very reliable. I presented them with a "bugged up" Windows 8 needing serious intervention and upgrade. They picked it up, fixed it, and even after I got it back and turned on a setting in error that knocked me off the "interwebs" every sign on Eric went out of his way to come to my house and get me back online with such a pleasant manner I hated to see him go. If you have zero to high techni
Very helpful and honest labor. Eric and the staff at Rizing Son's Computer was very helpful with me getting the best service for my Dell Inspiron laptop. I would recommend them for any of your repair service. Thanks Eric for your trustworthy service??
Rising Son's is a great computer service. Eric knows computers. I have never been disappointed with his service. Other computer repair services could not fix problems that Eric breezed through. I would not take my computer anywhere else.
For all your Computer and Electronic needs, this is the place to go. Quick response, knowledgeable staff, quality products. What more can you ask for. Highly recommend this establishment.
My experience with Rising Son?s computer has been nothing short of excellent! Please be assured that each customer is treated like their concerns are the top priority! I highly recommend them for ANY computer/electronic needs.
I luv the customer service. He explained things in a way I could understand. He asked me what I wanted to accomplish. I didn't feel like he just wanted my cash either. I will go there again. Would recommend him to anyone with computer/printer issues
Great place, fast, knowledgeable and very courteous. No problem in recommending their services at all. As a matter of fact, I did business with him over 10 years ago, still the same professionalism. 5 STARS BUSINESS, no question.
Awesome place to deal with! I work from home and they help me get my computer up and going again after yesterday?s storm. I have used them in the pass with the same results! Love the fact also they are in my area and didn't have to drive to Midlothian or Short Pump!
I have been a customer at Rising Son's for several years. I recently called to find a power cord for a Dell tablet. I spoke with the owner Eric. He did not carry this item but was kind enough to find it for me online and send me a link to purchase. This is the extra kind of service you don't find at large retailers.
Eric was super friendly and very professional. My son?s PS5 console has been fully repaired. I would definitely recommend Rising Son?s: Computer Clearance & Electronic Repair.
I called Rising Son's to see if my kindle HD fire 8 can be repaired, ( not charging when its plugged in eventhough the indicator say it is ). very nice, neat professional environment . Eric worked hard on the kindle to try to get it to work, (he brought new parts , changed out the USB port and smooth some things down but it still would not hold its charge but he did not give up on it, he worked on it until I picked it up (dead) he offered to rebuild the kindle if i choose too I appreciate the time he d
I was very pleased from the moment I walked through the door. I was given an estimate kn diagnostic service and he delivered and he fixed and updated my computer without me paying the price of a brand new desktop. Service was outstanding
Seems to not be set up to receive customers via COVID-19 guidelines. Not a lot of space to socially distance yourself. However, the associate did his best to identify my purchased items quickly so I could exit the premises and he himself was masked.
I have used Rising Sons twice - once to purchase a lap top and once again for an upgrade. Both times were excellent. They delivered a very good product, on time, and of good quality.
Very good experience. I have been a customer for many years and have always received the most courteous and professional service, whether in person or on the phone. I highly recommend them to anyone in need of high quality service and equipment.
i like to learn any thing new ,this was a great class. I really want to learn how to use a computer . this has been a great experance. Mr Gordon is a great teacher . I thank him for helping me.
Gordon was very personal and honest about estimates. He was able to recover photos, videos , and documents on hard drive. I was told by the Geek squad at Best Buy that the data could not be recovered. Thanks Gordon!
Quick response during the holidays, very helpful and knowledgeable, great communication, and did not try to sell me something due to another solution that was fixable on my own. Will definitely use Rising Son's again in the future!
I have been taking my computers and getting upgrades from Rising Sun for some years now but this is my first review and I am so pleased to do this one...I tried to upgrade to windows 10 and something didn't go write so the first person i thought of was Eric and did not hesitate to get in touch with him...Explained my problem and took the computer to him..These are the things i like about the way he conducts business, not only does he listen to you he will also give you options for your problem and he is no
You don't need the latest little black box, Eric can coax a little more "oomph" from your existing hardware. While most of his inventory is used equipment, he CAN put you in all new if that is what you need. There is no need to pitch a perfectly good box into the landfill, let Rising Son rehab your existing equipment.
Excellent customer service!!! Pleasant attitude and excellent with teaching and telling you whats going on with your computer. Had what I needed in stock, my number one choice hands down.
I really enjoy having Eric work on my computer. He always gets everything cleaned up after I mess up the programs. He is so cheerful and never makes me feel bad about doing weird things to my computer.
This place is a great place to get your computer fixed. Service is fast and very dependable. My laptop was repaired here. I've no complaints. Thank you for a job well done.
Best experience ever for fixing my laptop Honest, friendly service! I would recommend Rising Son"s to all my friends! Mr Gordon is absolutely good people!

I thought my chrome laptop was beyond repair. Mr Gordon repaired my laptop quickly and at a very reasonable price. Very professional. You will not be disappointed!
I love this shop . I've had work done on , and also brought a couple of used desk tops . Professional , and friendly service . Although I have moved from the area to the south side , I would recommend Rising Son to anyone that have issues with computers . Near , and far .
I received excellent service from Eric at Rising Sons He took the time to answer my questions. I'd recommend them to anyone who needs work on their computer.
I found raising sons after a long viewing of reviews online and I decided to go with Eric and when I tell you I was not disappointed he even took the time out to show my son how to run test runs when booting up the pc and even allowed him to place the parts in place if I could give him 10 stars I would very respectful communicate through the whole process and the parakeet Jojo is even friendly lol but my son is so happy that he can play his pc again the back story is my son bought a mother board and tried t

This place is great. Very knowledgeable about circuit level PCB repairs. Great service and had my stuff fixed within a few hours.
Many computers and parts here are very cheap, and you can pick up a bare bones computer for a very competitive price compared to something you would find at Goodwill or on eBay. There is a lot to look at, and you won't be disappointed with your visit.
Only took a day to get me back my PC, Great people.
People are very friendly and very good service and good price I like to tell people about this company they are very nice and I say you can trust them if anything happen to my computer I'm going back there more than anything my number one is friendly people they really care for the customers

Excellent service. Gave me some useful information. Fast service. Will definitely come back for a desktop.
It’s a mix of nostalgia and high-energy fun! Many arcades blend retro classics like Pac-Man and pinball with modern VR games, racing simulators, and rhythm challenges — often with music, lights, and a social vibe.
Both can be great! Solo visits let you focus on your favorite games, while going with friends adds competition, teamwork, and laughs. Many people plan arcade meetups as a casual hangout or even date spot.
Usually just yourself and a way to pay (some arcades still use coins, others use cards or apps). If you're competitive, bring your A-game. If you're social, bring friends or meet new ones over multiplayer games.
Weekdays or early afternoons are usually less crowded — perfect for focused play. Evenings and weekends bring the buzz, especially at barcades or venues with DJs, tournaments, or themed nights.
Absolutely! Arcades attract a mix of casual players and serious gamers. Whether you're jumping into a four-player co-op or chatting between rounds, it's a fun, low-pressure way to connect over shared interests.
Not at all. While many arcades are family-friendly, there are also adult-oriented ones with full bars, 18+ nights, or vintage nostalgia themes. Arcades today cater to everyone — from first-timers to lifelong gamers.
Yes! Many arcades host regular competitions, retro nights, cosplay parties, and more. Whether you're into high scores or just want to watch and vibe, events add an extra layer to the experience.
No worries — arcades are about having fun, not being perfect. Try a variety of games, ask others for tips, and remember: the vibe is more “let’s play” than “let’s win.”
Absolutely, retro games in arcades remain a thrilling draw in 2025! Classics like Pac-Man, Space Invaders, and Street Fighter II offer simple yet addictive gameplay, blending nostalgia with timeless challenge. Modern arcade cabinets often feature crisp displays and restored controls, enhancing the experience. These games thrive on quick reflexes and strategy, with vibrant pixel art and iconic soundtracks that spark joy. Arcades host tournaments and leaderboards, fostering a lively community. While modern games dominate, retro titles provide a unique, accessible thrill that keeps arcades buzzing.
