Most Things Get More Expensive After Ten Years… Not Our Batteries.

Founded as RepairMyPC in 2015, PartMasters has grown into South Africa’s trusted source for quality laptop parts at unbeatable value, with prices that have dropped over the last 10 years.

A Decade of Affordable Tech

Ten years ago, you might have found us selling batteries and chargers on BidorBuy, OLX, and Gumtree. One of our very first products was a laptop battery that sold for R559. Today, that same battery sells for R440. Not many companies can say their prices have gone down after a decade in business, but that has always been part of what makes PartMasters different.

Before we were known as PartMasters, the company started out as RepairMyPC, founded by Ron Snapper in 2015 from his home in Jukskei Park. At the time, the focus was on helping people repair and maintain their laptops, but Ron quickly noticed how difficult it was for the average person to find the exact part they needed. That frustration inspired a new direction… a business built around making quality laptop parts accessible, affordable, and easy to source. And so, PartMasters was born.

Built on Trust, Driven by Value

Keeping prices low and service high did not happen by chance. It came from years of experience, long-term supplier relationships, and the kind of purchasing power that only grows when you consistently put customers first. Every step forward, from expanding our product range to improving logistics, has been shaped by that same commitment to value and reliability. None of it would have been possible without the dedication and hard work of the PartMasters team, whose constant support and hard work ensures that both affordability and quality service remain at the heart of everything we do.

Our journey from a home-based business to a trusted national supplier has always been about keeping tech repairs affordable and accessible. Whether you need a single replacement part or a bulk order for resale, you can expect genuine value and dependable service every time. And yes, our dealers do get a little extra appreciation, but we prefer to let them tell you that.
