Our story

PC Galore opened its doors on May 27, 1994, when Gregory Baker brought the contents of his own closet to a small shop on West 4th Avenue in Kitsilano. The first shelves held machines he'd collected over the years: an Osborne 1, a TI-99/4A, a Samtron paper-white monitor, and an IBM XT.


The people behind PC Galore
Gregory Baker
Gregory Baker
Founder
Since 1994
Gregory opened PC Galore with machines from his own closet and a simple conviction: Vancouverites deserved a trustworthy place to buy and sell technology. More than 32 years on, he's still behind the counter — now steering the business toward personalized tech support subscriptions for clients who just want their devices to work.

30+ years
Larry joined just over a year after opening day — and never left. A hardware and software expert who can diagnose and repair virtually any electronic device, Larry is the backbone of PC Galore's repair operation. Away from the bench, he's an active member of the Society for Creative Anachronism.
