Stop cancel culture. You may be hurting someones business when you dont know all the facts. We have no facts, just a few sentences on an anonymous message board, and youre willing to risk someones livelihood on what could just be a mistake by OP?

Call them and talk first. It’s possible they changed processors to try to diagnose if the processor or main board was bad. They could have just screwed up.

Would agree. But I have yet to see a post without atleast a handful of trump posts.

In California, repair shops are required by law to return the parts that were replaced. Perhaps it's the same where you live?

Maybe? Do you trust everyone on the internet because they can post a reddit post? We have no idea if OP is confused about what happened, lying, or actually the victim of theft...

No offense to the present company but all we have to go on is OP's word. Someone said so is not justification for mob justice.

Well we have no neutral fact finder, indeed no evidence at all except for OP’s unsworn testimony. That should ABSOLUTELY be enough to be certain beyond a reasonable doubt that this shop stole OP’s CPU, did so deliberately, and would lie when confronted with the accusation. It’s a completely fool proof case and we should bring swift internet justice on this unsuspecting small business owner. It was the business owner, right? Not an unscrupulous employee? Or they at least know about the thefts

Ah, man this sucks. I work at a repair shop, and our entire philosophy is honesty and transparency, and we actually had to fire a dude who was claiming people had several viruses slowing down their device in order to justify charging then a small fortune for the repair. Truly despicable, as these were older customers.

Is the store innocent in this case?
EDIT: I should’ve worded my original comment/question above better - I was trying to point out that we don’t know whether or not the info in this thread is legitimate, so it’s best to do nothing until we have any form of verification on what happened other than hearsay
Ultimatelt, it’s better to do nothing at all (beyond maybe avoiding the store if the claims are proved) UNLESS something like this happens directly to YOU (ie if a company replaces a part without YOUR permission on YOUR device, leave poor review for them. Everyone else that hears about this should, if the claim is proven, just avoid the place - no need to repeat bad reviews for something that happened to someone else)

Ask for your parts back. Worst that happens is you don't get them. After that contact the better business bureau or your local equivalent if things are not resolved to your satisfaction. If you purchased the part online you should be able to print a receipt.
While it sucks you need a new processor the up side is a 7700k is very cheap used. Though now would probably be a good time for an upgrade.
