Re: about general hardware purchase questions for Beijing (Jeff Warrington)

There is also a good second hand market in Nv Ren Jie (Womens street)

Like a porn shop.  It has old amps, guitars, cpu's, graphics cards,
laptops, pc's, parts, musical instruments, mobile phones, etc, etc, etc.

Also Hai Long and Bai Now Hui are good shops.  Basically the choice and
options and places to buy a more plentiful and better stocked than I
experienced in Aus and I would bet also from wherever you hail from
too....  ;-)
