Need a reputable computer battery supplier in NZ

August 30, 2014 10:00 PM

Attention MeFi Kiwis: I need to buy a replacement computer battery in Auckland. Can you recommend a reputable dealer?

I'm looking for a replacement battery for my Dell Inspiron Mini 1018. I'm spending spring break in Auckland (Sept. 6-13) and would like to buy one there. Do you know of a good dealer, either brick and mortar or online? I found a good deal on Fishpond but they seem to have a bad reputation. All suggestions welcome!

Not sure if they stock your battery, but PB Technologies is a very reliable computer store. They have five or so Auckland branches.

These guys specialise in laptops and are dealers for Dell (amongst others). They supply parts including batteries. They have a branch in Pakuranga, and supply online. They've been around for a while (like years).

Fishpond don't specialise in computers, mainly books.
