Guest ezzybee Posted May 9, 2011 Posted May 9, 2011 Hi, I need to purchase a new mother board and hard drive cady/cable to get info off hard drive! Does anyone know where in Melbourne there is a shop like Maplins from the UK?? Were in Eastern suburbs but happy to go to the city if I need to!! Thanks
Inthedeep Posted May 9, 2011 Posted May 9, 2011 There doesn't seem to be an equivalent out here unfortunately ... lthough i personally have found officeworks caters for *most* of the things i sued to buy from Maplins. Thjat said .. there are a list of stores here http://www.melbournecomputerstores.com/ - Most of them are one man bands but MSY seem to have a few stores spread amongst the city.
pau1evs Posted May 9, 2011 Posted May 9, 2011 Radio parts in the CBD x on the corner of spencer street x inbox if you need any more info
chalkyhill Posted May 9, 2011 Posted May 9, 2011 Can you buy a cheap desktop pc (an older one) if its just for a one off transfer?

The closest thing to Maplins in Australia is jaycar electronics http://http://www.jaycar.com.au/ (not as good as maplins in my opinion) They have two shops in Melbourne that I am aware of. One in Ringwood 5 min walk from Ringwood train station And One in Central Melbourne on block away from Central Melbourne train station.

Cerberus1 Posted May 13, 2011 Posted May 13, 2011 Best place in Melbourne for me was http://www.cpl.net.au/stores.htm Massive range of parts/accessories & good prices.
theonetruechris Posted May 13, 2011 Posted May 13, 2011 +1 for msy but don't expect any level of customer service. as long as you know exactly what you want they're great if not don't even go in.
Guest ezzybee Posted May 17, 2011 Posted May 17, 2011 Thank you! Yes I gathered people dont know what they are talking about half the time! Luckily we know exactly what we want! Thanks to everyone who replied! :-)
