When first time went 华强北 is daunting. Overwhelmed by the scale and sheer quantity over there. :eek:

秋葉原 sounds atas
华强北 sounds like gangster place
森林广场 is understooded ... so no need to say ... :s13:

can't rmb if i have been to 秋葉原 Akihabara, thou i was in Tokyo in 2002

was in 华强北 this year, it is not just a single bldg, but entire area.

very messy, more for traders, than consumers.

森林广场 is now a history.

been to HK, BKK & KL equivalents too.

Should be 华强北 since most of the IT stuffs are still "Made In China" now.

DYODD.
I just came back from there. The aircon space all smoking smell, toilet even worse.

Imo it's ok if u wanna be a local distro or sth. I seen blacks and russians speaking basic chinese to the vendors, mostly ladies, saying 这个我要一千 or X千 and it's not just one item, i am talking about like almost the entire catalogue from that vendor and then go on to the next and do the same thing. It's pretty eye opening lol.

They box it all up in black tapes and send it via land transport back home to sell there.

Of course, it is SLS. Or else, moi would have no chance to ask if they are open on PH.

That was what i felt when i was there. I was like this is SLS but orchard size or sth. Each building appears to specialize in a few stuff, some do lappy and repair and associated services and parts, others sell assortment of stuff and hp parts, another building do LED and whathave u around that etc.
