Rattles, trumpets and wind-up snakes are some of the toys a budget retailer has been found guilty of selling with choking hazards.
The 123 Mart Limited was found guilty in the Auckland District Court on 17 charges under the Fair Trading Act on July 7, and will be sentenced in October.
Judge Rob Ronayne found 123 Mart sold about 9000 of seven types of toys with small parts that were choking hazards for young children.
After the Commerce Commission charged 123 Mart last year, the retailer chose a defended hearing on 22 charges, and five charges were dismissed.
