The Vierdecart

We also sell second hand electronics. During opening hours you will find a wooden cabinate outside the STORES, with lots of electronics in it. If you would like to buy something, take it to the counter and start haggling!

Note: items from the cart are sold without any warranty!

Have you got any old electronic device you think someone could use? Bring it to the STORES. Our employees will check if it is of any use and, if so, put it in the cabinate.

It is possible to place orders at the STORES. We can order at Nedis, Farnell, RS-Components, TME and Mouser. You can complete an orderform at our counter or at home (download the orderform here).

The delivery time depends on our suppliers and the available amount of time of our purchasers. This means that we can not guarantee short delivery times!
