1378939 2014-07-10 21:26:00 I have been buying my computer compactness from one NZ based website for the last 5 years.

Their service is not the best and I am giving up on them.

Which is the best NZ based computer supplier in your opinion ?

(For things like prices, service, stock, delivery, website, description of products etc etc)

1378940 2014-07-10 21:34:00 Personally I prefer Playtech or PBTech, though the latter has had decidedly mediocre after-sales service in my experience (but good pricing and fast shipping). Mighty Ape then Ascent would be my next choices if neither of those had the product. inphinity (7274)
1378941 2014-07-10 21:42:00 I've been using Ascent, in Wgtn and DTC, and Computerlounge in Auckland. Never had a prob with either of them. All of them, send whatever the same day. And arrive the next day.

Actually I'm waiting for Ascent's parcel to arrive today sometime. Ordered it yesterday (A dvd burner for this new build I'm putting together)

And if it's not in NZ, (or if it's in NZ, but dearer), I'll get it on Ebay. It may take longer to get here. But I'm happy with that. As long as it works when it gets here (and so far all of the things, I've ordered on Ebay have worked, no probs at all)

1378943 2014-07-10 22:37:00 I quite often go to whoevers got a cheaper price, that said I do like Ascent, prices may be dearer sometimes but service is brilliant. Clod (7853)

1378945 2014-07-10 23:11:00 I've built this computer here from 2008 Dec using Ascent and Computer Lounge. I have used more Ascent b/c they are in Wellington here so I have taken stuff back for RMA and one item I was unable to get a replacement they offered a 100% refund even after I have used it for 1.5yrs they provided a 4yr extended warranty without additional costs. Some others althou you could argue with the CGA they try to do 12 months but Ascent provides extended warranties for free. Nomad (952)
