He didn’t design the difficult to repair product nor is he charging as much to repair or replace parts that don’t actually need complete replacements though.
I used to watch his content a couple of years ago and I remember him saying multiple times that he reaches his goal if he goes out of buisness. Devices being so easy to repair, that his services are no longer needed would be a reason he’ll gladly accpect as a failure of his buisness. I haven’t watched him in a while so I’m not sure whether he still holds that opinion. But given that the laptops, phones and harddrives waiting for repair where literary piling up in his workshop, it’s more likely that his shop burns down than him running out of customers. What he lacks is time, and skilled workers to fullfill orders, which are much harder to come by than broken electronics.
Have you considered he opened a repair store cause he’s sick of the bullshit consumerism and irreparable devices
No. Hadn’t considered that at all. I had thought about how he opened a business to make money though.
He didn’t open a business to make money? So it’s a non-profit?
By your logic, any business is evil because they make money and exploit the customer. Now you win the argument, go home.
Any business is evil*
*Except apple \s
I never said it’s evil, I just don’t like when dudes pretend they’re not doing the same thing apple is

You should watch this piece CBC did a few years ago: Apple under fire for allegations of controversial business practices. It might provide a little bit more insight into what Rossmann’s actually about.

It’s not profit if it’s his own wages
