Bookstore in New Zealand

“I was interested in a cot and mattress from Nelly Boo, so I reached out to inquire about a special offer. Greg was friendly and very responsive, making the whole process easy and seamless. Excellent communication throughout - I would definitely recommend purchasing from Nelly Boo!”

“Very Interesting, knowledgeable guy running the place. He has a great story too! Fair prices and great selection of books. The sort of bookshop you will always return to. Really happy to find it.”

“Wonderful tea selection, truly massive! And so many books, definitely worth a visit for a browse or a sit down. Had a lemon tart from the cabinet, which was yum. Staff were so warm and friendly, and very good at recommending teas. I will definitely be back!”

“We visited to pick up some books for our three kiddos. The shop was absolutely charming and perfect for finding local (and not local) books. The shopkeepers were incredibly helpful and friendly. Our books were even gift wrapped for us. Would absolutely recommend making the trip with your little ones.”

“Great range of books, well laid out in easy to find sections, knowledgeable staff. A treasure trove!”

“As soon as you step foot into the shop you get a sense of peace and relaxation. Also there's great customer service and friendliness”

“Awesome to have a great shop like this in our community. Books for all the family, stationery, cards, gifts and a NZ postshop too. Friendly and helpful.”

“Absolutely adore this hidden gem and try to pop over from Whakatāne every few months. It's a treasure trove of secondhand books, spanking all genres. The owner has incredible knowledge and can help you find anything. Make sure you take an antihistamine (dusty for obvious reasons) and have a coffee before you arrive, as once you're here, you could easily spend hours perusing the shelves.”

“What a treasure trove for book lovers. The lady who owns this shop is amazing. Just ask her if you are looking for a particular book or author. She will 90% of the time know if she has it and where it is.”

“Best place for art supplies. Awesome staff.”

“Excellent stock and wonderful service!”

“A large range of items. The shop was very busy which is a good sign. The electrical items are checked and tagged. We bought a lamp and some other items. Very happy with our bargains.”

“I found and bought 5, size 8 pairs of beautiful shoes from this Amaizing shop. Im going back!”

“Great little store with a variety of action figures and collectibles. Surprised to find Xenomorph NECA line and just had to pick up this amazing NECA Kenner line Rhino Alien. Store staff was super friendly and obviously a huge sci-fi fan as well. If you’re looking for collectibles especially horror oriented, FUNKO or Neca, can’t go wrong going here:)”

“Really helpful staff,great service from the post office staff.”

“Such lovely people I received my package personally delivered due to a family illness. Just a wonderful customers service gesture. Thank you meant alot .”

“This has to be the most organised opshop around. Not only is everything categorised but clothes are on hangers in their correct size - unheard of! I always find something to take home and the prices are how it should be at an opshop - affordable. It has a great range of babywear too.”

“The shop has one of the Best board game collections around.. probably the best actually! If you're into board gaming, this is the place to go out west! And even in the wider Auckland area their stock variety and prices make it a worthwhile place to visit anyway! And the staff are gamers so can really help find the right game!”

“Hi. I've worked voluntarily here for 8 months. This op shop is by far the best. The shop is beautifully presented and the wide range of items that are available are simply outstanding and of excellent quality. I would recommend to anyone looking for preloved items to shop here. I'm speaking from a customers perspective not because I work here. Come and take a look. Claire”
