Since we're a Dell shop, it wasn't going to get circulated out to a customer.

Downunda, "shop" means the same as "store", a place where you buy stuff. What you would call a shop we would call a workshop, a place where stuff gets made/fixed/serviced.
I recall a US friend mentioning his car was "in the shop today", causing me some puzzlement. Was he a ram-raider or just a really bad driver?
