Downtown Second Hand Trade

About

Downtown Second Hand Trade serves North Island from 490 Queen Street, Auckland CBD, Auckland 1010, New Zealand.

Visitors rate the business 4.2 out of 5 from 26 reviews, a solid score for a second-hand shop in the central city. It is easy to reach from the main centres of the North Island, with Wellington, Rotorua, Taupo, Hamilton, Tauranga, Napier and New Plymouth all within the same island, and Auckland sits at the northern end of it. The shop occupies a position on Queen Street in the Auckland CBD, the busiest retail stretch in the city.

New Zealand has a temperate maritime climate, so summers are mild and winters rarely bring snow at low altitude. Māori culture is central to national life, with marae, haka and the Treaty of Waitangi signed in 1840.

English is the main language and te reo Māori is also official, so Māori place names are used throughout the country. Ferries reach Waiheke, the Hauraki Gulf islands and Stewart Island, and a Cook Strait service links the two main islands.
