Local second-hand bookshops: Pegasus books, The Ferret Bookshop, Bookhaven, Bookhound.

A little further away there are these shops: Archway Books, The Dickensian Bookshop, Loco, For the Love of BOOKS.

Also, specialty shops like: Messines Military Bookshop in Featherston, Smith's Bookshop in Christchurch, Hard to Find in Dunedin, Rona Gallery in Eastborne.
 

Slow Boat Records buy, sell and trade* both new & used records and CDs and other music-related items and have been a Wellington institution pretty much forever, not to mention (in our old premises) long-time neighbours and friends. Luckily for our bank accounts they are now 3 entire blocks away and not 10 metres across the street, but this shouldn't put you off, especially as you can let your fingers do the walking with their comprehensive online catalogue.
*Hey that sounds familiar...

 There are local board games shops we would like to mention; Caffinated Dragon, Counter Culture, Cerberus and the local Warhammer store.

It is worth mentioning book related events: Featherston Booktown, CoNZealand

The Shadows of Time site boasts an impressive selection of obscure historical information that will keep you busy for hours. Fossick through military rolls, shipping passenger lists, early NZ settlers, NZ teachers, NZ university graduates, 19th century NZ Cyclopedias, military pensions, Regiment of 4th Light Dragoons, Newspaper reports and obituaries, and many other assorted genealogical topics. A research service is also available.

Ahoy there, me hearties... 
The Miramar Ship Index is an historical database listing both merchant powered ships of about 100 gross register tons and above, and naval ships of even smaller tonnage.
Actually, to be entirely correct this is not just a database, but THE database of ships in the world. Rodger was bored and wanted something to do.... 
This database is added to daily and updated monthly.

The Science Fiction and Fantasy Association of New Zealand website is a great place to go for the latest in news, current events, competitions, book reviews, Conventions and lots more.
