Inherited an off brand MIG and went in cold to Global to buy some accessories and wire. Colin took as much time as necessary to help me sort through the choices and I asked him a lot of questions. It's been 25 or 30 years since I did any kind of welding and a lot has changed. Due to a incorrect characterization on my part, he provided a spool of wire that didn't fit my machine. He exchanged the wire when I brought it back with the proper spool. When I got home I had a problem installing it. I contacted him and he said ",, send me a picture of the inside of your machine and we'll sort it out". I went to step further and sent him a 2 minute video. We spent 10 minutes on the phone, half of the time taken up but him trying to get through the security of the Google site to look at the video. After watching, he pointed out an indexed washer, that I wasn't installing correctly. Did I feel dumb and told him so. It rolled off his back and he chuckled, "all good mate, that's why we're here". Indeed. Great people, terrific range of equipment, and good prices. If you need anything that has to do with welding Global is the place. Colin has made me a customer for life!

These guys know the stuff they sell very well, very knowledgeable and helpful staff. prices are very reasonable and being able to buy welding consumables as single units, rather than shelling out for a pack of multiple is great for hobby welders and saves me a few bucks.

Quite frankly, Colin at Global Welding Supplies deserves a prize for customer service. Following a clear demonstration, he has provided us with a very effective welder and always answered my silly questions be they over the phone or in the shop. Highly recommended. I had a friend recommend the Hugong TekMaster 200 and upon walking into Global Welding Supplies I found it there easy straight off the shelf. The shop and service is a Welder's Paradise. Thank you.

Great little shop that I never even knew existed! Just happened upon it by chance when I was in the Hutt for something totally unrelated. The fella in the store was very knowledgeable and helpful and the prices were great! Cheaper than Trademe, where i normally get my welding stuff from. Will definitely be going back for future welding related stuff.

Took my heavy-azz Transmig 130 down to Global welding supplies cos it wasn't feeding, and they had it sorted in no time! In the finish, I was able to fix my trailer without having to shell out for a new mig unit. The old T130 has some life left in it yet thanks to Colin and Rex. Great guys with a great attitude. Highly recommended!

Very helpful staff who, if they don't have it in stock, and if not busy with other customers, go out of their way to ring around for you to try to locate it for you, from their opposition; They have a good range of stock, competitive pricing, and also sell expensive packeted consumables in small amounts unlike BOC. Only thing they don't stock, is high grade Easyflo, above 58%Ag., but then neither do BOC, except in 50 stick $1000 plus, packs.
