Looking for an affordable second-hand electronic device?
You can purchase refurbished second-hand items from Regen Computers. These include laptops, computers, monitors and cellphones which are sold at low prices.
These are devices that were in working order when received by Urban Miners and are too good to recycle. Instead, a team of tech experts at Urban Miners check and then pass along to Regen Computers to resell.
We are no longer selling or attending the Cambridge Lions Market.
Sponsors
Urban Miners would like to thank our principal sponsors Waipā District Council Waste Minimisation Fund, Cambridge Community Board, Te Awamutu Community Board, and Waipā District Council for their support. We are also grateful for the support of our other sponsors as shown below.
