This electronics bazaar is the heart of the Huaqiangbei shopping district. SEG electronics market is known world wide as a place where makers can come to find any kind of component they need to build their Internet of things devices. When you enter you are immediately into the thick of the electronic components and as you twist and turn through the isles and ascend on the escalators you go from components to computer motherboards, hard drives and then to full blown computers and monitors. If you can dream it you can probably assemble a prototype here. The SEG plaza also contains a lot of knock off products and components so be aware when you are buying. We have heard of recycled components being sold as new. Make sure that when you buy something you get a receipt and a business card so that you can come back if there is problems. Don’t forget that at a lot of these stalls you can bargain and haggle especially if you want a large quantity of components.
