I've often told friends and colleagues that PB Tech is the first place to look for computer gear in Auckland. Their prices are often the lowest, always among the lowest (try Pricespy to confirm it), and they give the best service of any of the cheap PC stores.

Last weekend PB Tech had a great laptop sale, it ran on to Monday. Sarah wanted to buy a laptop to use during her exchange year at the University of Glasgow. Sarah was working hard all weekend and Monday, so we went in early on Tuesday morning. They still had not taken down the sale signs, but would/could not give us the prices. Sadly we resigned ourselves :( to paying the full price. Aparently most of the good deals were because Toshiba had given them a one off reduction, and could not be repeated or even extended to opening time on Tuesday.

Then this morning, I was livid, there in the Herald was a big advert for another Three Days Only Laptop Sale! I stormed over to PB Tech, I wouldn't settle for less than them meeting me half way, and dropping $50 on Sarah's laptop. No worries! PB Tech have a if you find a better price within a week we'll match it policy, it even applies to their own prices! We got the full $116 and some cents back (i.e. $100 plus GST).

So, PB Tech is brilliant, lowest prices, good repair service if it is needed, well informed salespeople, and a straightforward and honest price match guarantee :)

Declaration of interest: I own 0 shares in PB Tech, they have paid me nothing and given me no inducement to write this. None of my family or friends have ever worked there. I have no interest except to declare my pleasure at a great deal from an honest and helpful company :)
