As with many businesses, our company was established by our founder, Brad, scratching his own itch. Brad had a love of the latest tech but couldn’t stand the process of buying and selling via classified sites. After dealing with the final scammer that broke the camel’s back, our company was born.
Seven years ago, Brad started building the business from home. It grew quickly and he ran out of space for stock in his small home office. Stock kept piling up – so he expanded his “warehousing” to the couch in the lounge. This didn’t last long.
His loving wife made it very clear that the business needed to move into its own space.
In 2015 the business moved into a small 5 x 5m office (a converted garage), and employed its second employee.
The business has grown to be a team of 16, and has over 1,000 devices in our 600m² warehouse.
While there are now many small businesses trying to do what we do, we pioneered the formalised online buying and selling of used tech online in South Africa.
We are proud to have nearly 2,000 positive ratings on bidorbuy.co.za and we are the top-rated used tech company on HelloPeter.
Our team is focused on customer service and we maintain a “continual learning” environment, so everyone on our team is always improving.
Instead of complaining about the state of our country, we want to be part of the solution. We want to grow our business and employ as many people as we can. Our team also has a heart for the poor and are actively involved in community-upliftment and entrepreneurial training programs in the local townships.
For security and operational reasons, we do not allow collections at our warehouse and only deliver by courier. Delivery is overnight to most areas in SA.
For too long, the scammers have been making millions every year, preying on buyers on the various classified sites.
