Tacoma resident Ralph Anderson calls to tell us that he either wants his computer back – or else the money he paid to have it repaired.

He told us some trouble he’d been having with a South Tacoma business, PC Salvage, and how he’s been trying to track down the owner.

Earlier today, here’s how the sidewalk looked in front of the business, at 3627 S. 54th St.

I called the three numbers listed on the company’s Web site, and each fed to a full mailbox. I also ran a quick search of the owner’s name, and found two more local numbers – both have been disconnected.

Meanwhile the sidewalk fills with used, useless and possibly hazardous waste.

Let me know if you’re involved with this – leave a comment. Thanks.
