They are out there and have been for years but you are mixing up two vastly different markets. Geek Squad is not intended to get really nuts and bolts and never will as the need for that is very limited. They serve low end PC owners with simple issues. If something is all that broken then its near as cheap to buy a new one. High end PC owners would never go to Best Buy to buy their unit.
