About this place

SEG Electronics Market is the kind of place that techies enter and vanish never to be seen again. It’s housed in two buildings (a third one functions as the SEG Digital Market) on Huaqiang Bei Lu. The largest building has eight floors and is on the corner of Huaqiang Bei Lu and Huaqiang Zhong Lu. Next to that on Huaqiang Bei Lu is a building with four more floors of electronic products. Behind these two buildings, and accessible by walking between them is SEG Digital Market.
 
The electronics market stocks mostly computers and computer accessories. The digital market is good for entertainment devices like MP3s, personal stereos and DVD players. Having said that, the distinction is often blurred and you might want to check out each building no matter what you are in the market for. Aside from computer hardware and software, SEG also stocks just about every electronic-related product imaginable from telephone leads to RC toys. It is also possible to have electronic products repaired here.
 
Many of the stalls have prices displayed on their products but it is still acceptable to bargain. If there are no prices displayed it is highly advisable to bargain. Examine what you are purchasing very carefully and ask for a receipt. Obviously, buying laptops of dubious origins from the shady characters that stand outside the market is not recommended. 
 
How to get there
The best way to get to SEG is by metro. Exit A of Huaqiang Lu station will bring you out on the corner of Huaqiang Bei Lu and Huaqiang Zhong Lu. The market is on the opposite side of the street. If you take a taxi tell the driver to take you to Huaqiang Bei Saige Dianzi Shichang.
