We assess the problem at no charge and explain exactly what’s going on in plain English.

Slow, Broken, or Just Not Right? We Can Help.

Whether your laptop won’t start, runs like treacle, or has a screen that’s given up the ghost — bring it to us. We work on Windows laptops from all brands, and can advise on Mac repairs too.

Upgrading an older machine with a new SSD or more RAM is often far cheaper than buying a replacement. We can help you decide what’s worth it.

Screen Replacement
From small cracks to completely dead displays. Genuine and compatible screens available.
RAM Upgrades
More memory means a faster machine. Often the single best upgrade you can make.
SSD Upgrades
Replace a slow old hard drive with a fast SSD. Transform the performance of an ageing laptop.
Keyboard Replacement
Sticky, dead, or missing keys? We replace laptop keyboards for most major models.
OS Installation
Fresh Windows install, driver updates, or a move to Linux. We set it up and hand it back ready to use.
Virus Removal
Malware, ransomware, adware — we clean it out and secure your system so it doesn’t happen again.
Data Recovery
When a drive fails, your files might still be recoverable. We’ll assess the situation honestly.
Thermal Cleaning
Overheating or noisy fan? A deep clean and fresh thermal paste can make a huge difference.

Classic Consoles & Retro Hardware

We stock a rotating selection of retro gaming consoles, games and accessories. Everything tested before it goes on the shelf.

1990s

Nintendo SNES & N64

Two of the greatest consoles ever made. When we have them in stock they tend to go quickly — ask Mike what’s available.

Stock varies
1989 – 2003

Nintendo Game Boy Family

Original Game Boy, Pocket, Color and Advance. A perennial favourite — great to play, great to collect. Games available too.

Often in stock
1994 – 2006

PlayStation 1 & 2

The consoles that defined a generation. PS1 and PS2 units, controllers and a good selection of titles when available.

Stock varies
1990 – 1998

Sega Mega Drive & Saturn

Blast processing and all that. Mega Drive is the more common find; Saturn is rarer but worth the hunt for the right titles.

Ask in store
2001 – 2007

Original Xbox & Xbox 360

Solid hardware that’s now firmly in retro territory. The original Xbox has some serious collector’s value for the right games.

Stock varies
Various eras

Controllers & Accessories

Spare controllers, memory cards, AV cables, light guns and other hardware. Useful if you already have a console that needs completing.

Good selection

Our Second-Hand Pledge

We want you to walk out happy. That means being straight with you about what you’re buying.

01
Tested Before Sale
Every device is powered on and checked. We test screens, buttons, cameras, connectivity and battery health before it goes on display.
02
Honest Condition Grading
We grade items honestly — Excellent, Good, or Fair — and tell you what any imperfections are. No surprises when you get home.
03
Fair Prices
We check current market values before pricing. You should pay less than you would elsewhere for the same condition item — that’s the point.
