To our valued customers

We apologize if you have been having a problem finding us. Unfortunately, the council failed to advise us of the impact their plans in building the new transport interchange would have on us and the access to our premises.

We were later advised by a council officer that they had forgotten to advise us that we would be impacted, we weren’t advised however that we would be completely cut off, making it almost impossible for you, our valued customers, to come in for all your computer needs.

In the ongoing process they have abused and obstructed our customers, illegally breached our boundary line, and obstructed easy access to our premises. We do apologize for this and assure you that we are working to get this sorted.

We are excited to share that you won’t need to battle to get into our premises anymore as we have relocated to 1/7 Hinemoa Street, Paraparaumu. This is in the ‘Old Mill’ building the first building on the right just over the railway crossing. We are on the corner and entrance with parking (no potholes!) is from Hinemoa St.

You will find us here in our new bright premises serving you our valued customers as we have since 1996 with our holistic approach to computer sales, support and service.

There you will find our huge range of power adapters, laptop adapters, cables including most audio, video, and computer.
Batteries, computer parts and of course a great range of ex lease computers, laptops, tablets etc

We look forward to seeing you soon!

This will be our last weekend markets until the New Year (New Year's Eve at Waikanae, 8 Jan Otaki).
We have new zucchini plants ready to go in now plus capsicum and chillies, including red and orange manzano chilli - not quite up there for heat with the legendary 'Carolina Reaper' but more than hot enough for most mortals!
Still a good range of tomato plants available but there will only be a few select large grade plants after this weekend.
Also some potted colour for Christmas cheer - vibrant Impatiens, including the large-flowered 'New Guinea' strain. These can be grown year-round in the right conditions and look absolutely stunning in part-shade over summer.
We would like to take this opportunity to say 'thankyou' to our many regular customers and wish you all the very best for the Festive Season. It's been a pleasure to share your gardening journeys.
