Buying in China

[Bullet]

Hello all.

 

Quick question.  I am going to China in a couple of weeks, visiting the cities of Hong Kong, Beijing, Shanghi and Macau.  I thought it would be a good idea to pick up some bits and bobs whilst i'm out there as i'm assuming it will be considerably cheaper (I live in the UK where it is pretty pricey).  So my question is, can anyone suggest some places that will sell parts in any of the cities that are legit?

 

Thanks

When i was in china, prices were pretty much the same for hardware. i wasnt in Hongkong tho, that should be cheaper there. Go Go Blackmarket!

In Beijing there's a huge tech district called 中关村 (Zhong Guan Cun), everyone that lives there should know where and what that is. But most of the tech shopping stuff that I do in China is over the Internet, since you're just a tourist just head down to 中关村.
