tried to turn it on (electrically not in any kind of sexual way) and the power button gave me a small shock.

since then there is no reaction to power on attempts.

i done goofed? notebook is 2 years and 2 months old XD pls safe it.

sounds like its not grounded.
take it to a technician.

he opened it up and tried to start it with the tip of a biro. didnt work so he told me its broken and offered to get my data from the ssd.

paid 50€ for basically nothing XD

dc adapter

Go to a reputable technician.
The fuq is wrong with people.
paying 50$ to hear its broken.

Had this happen to me one. My laptop stopped working so I took it apart and found a hole burned in the mobo (was a cheapo laptop, cheap parts). Brought it to get an estimate on how much to replace the mobo, they called me back in a week telling me my mobo is bad and they wanted a $45 diagnostic fee. I had already snagged the hard drive from the thing, so I just told them they weren't getting a dollar from me for a diagnostic fee since I clearly told them before even giving it to them what the problem was. They ended up just giving the laptop back because the cost to repair it was more than the laptop was worth (discontinued motherboard)

was at the store that sold it to me. they said its broken, charged me 50 bucks for the analysis but i can use them as voucher for the new purchase.

So the professionals diagnosis is its broken.
They couldn't expand on that any more?
sounds fucking sketch as fuck to me.

Imagine we go to a mechanic and he says your car dun no work no more mister.
thats it you toss it out? you don't even ask what wrong with it?

Some service you got there bro. Give me number I need to save it in my rolodex.

So they're literally baiting you into buying a brand new laptop, take it to a place that only does repairs.

If they can't tell you exactly whats wrong then they aren't good at their job.

Also a "biro" is a ballpoint pen, you paid 50 to have him try and press the power button, like did they even take it apart?
