Or maybe I’d open a repair-shop. One that also allows people to do the work themselves with tools and instruction.

I would use the hell out of this. I've been focusing on repairing over buying lately and it's not only cheaper (obviously), but it's really rewarding. Some plumbing, sewing to repair clothes, computer repair, I've come to realise that many things are easier to repair than you'd think and the biggest hurdle is just being shown how. For those of us who learn best by doing and being shown in person (not video) this would be amazing.

Exactly. I don't even think that service could be offered any cheaper than having an employee do the repair.

But it's fun. And it gives people insight into repairability, they can use for their next purchase.
