Affiliate Disclosure
Our Affiliate Partnerships
At PC Repairs, we believe in transparency. This page explains how our affiliate program works and how it helps us continue creating free, high-quality repair guides for you.
What Are Affiliate Links?
When we recommend products and tools in our guides, we sometimes include special links to retailers like Amazon, Newegg, iFixit, and B&H Photo. If you click one of these links and make a purchase, we may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you.
These affiliate relationships help us:
- Pay for server hosting and website maintenance
- Create more detailed repair guides and tutorials
- Improve our tools and resources
- Keep all content completely free for you
How It Works
- You see a product recommendation in one of our repair guides with an affiliate link
- You click the link and decide whether to buy from that retailer
- The retailer gives us a small commission, typically 2-5% of the purchase price
- Your cost is unchanged, you pay the same price whether you use our link or go directly
- We use that commission to keep our site running and improve our guides
Our Principles
We only recommend products we genuinely believe in and would use ourselves. Here is what guides our affiliate decisions:
- Quality First: We recommend tools and parts that are reliable and effective
- Honest Reviews: We disclose both pros and cons of recommended products
- Reader Interest: We only link to products relevant to the repair guide you are reading
- Fair Pricing: We highlight when items are overpriced or when there are better alternatives
Affiliate Programs We Participate In

Disclosure on Our Content

- Buy at Store Buttons: Links with store-specific branding are affiliate links
- Our Pick Badge: Highlights our top recommended product in a category
Your Privacy
Using our affiliate links does not compromise your privacy:
- We do not track individual purchases or personal details
- We respect all standard privacy policies of retailers
- Your shopping experience is the same whether you use our links or not
