content: Stan001 I have been in similar markets in Beijing, you feel like a kid in a candy store, you want to buy everything you see ! Prices are really cheap. Even if you already have something you still want to buy similar stuff.The one I go in Beijing is 5 stories with everything you can imagine, you name it, is there.I go to Beijing very often and that is a official stop everytime I go there.Good post.

content: In NYC, Canal Street was known for several blocks of electronic surplus and new parts stores, they are gone. In Toronto, Canada, King/Queen street still have that today. More common today in Chinatown are phone repair, unlockers, etc.,.What we have left are isolated stores selling a lot of parts, but it varies by region. Dave reviewed one of the last in CA, Apexs Electronics, is famous. In Canada, A1 Electronics.Quote from: sonicj on February 09, 2011, 01:24:20 pm
