Having worked in Asia for over 25 years what you have to understand is that this type of market is pretty common there. Most of the shops specialize in one type of product or component since a good number of them are wholesalers. The owners open up these retail stalls in these markets as a combination outlet and office for their business. It is also the reason that you negotiate everything. I had some pretty good relationships with many of the owners of these small stalls but if you are identified as a one time customer with little chance of repeat business look out. Best way to get a good deal is to be respectful and honest with them. If the price is too high tell them and leave odds are there is a shop close by that can match the deal or better it . The longer you stay does not mean a lower price sometimes it just annoys them.

+John Grammaticus I just checked the last 2 weeks of videos to see what you were talking about. In them they compare VR goggles, test drive a tesla, Build things with legos & some models, have some fun with liquid nitrogen, test another product, do some science fair science, have a couple of talk shows AND build a popcorn machine . .. besides the paper thing. . . so one dodgy video in a fortnight. I wish all KZfaq channels struck out so rarely. Also to be honest as a crafter that uses a lot of hot glue & paint, the paper idea is one I was planning on stealing as I'd never seen it done before, so to my POV they were all good & interesting videos.

@dozerjohn 8 жыл бұрын

wwaxwork Sure thing, but I was talking about changes since Will left. Personally I'm not a fan of those sciency videos aimed at a rather young audience but I see their merit. Back in the day there was more in depth tech here, builds were more elaborate etc. To each their own but at times I felt that there was less and less stuff for old farts like me and I have a feeling that Simone might fill that gap, we'll see. I think that it's simply because Norm and Adam are still experimenting with what they want Tested to be.

It's all mostly decent stuff... a lot of it is fantastic... and I have not had to start a dispute once. Shipping sometimes takes a long time, but everything is so cheap, I can buy things I don't necessarily need at that moment in anticipation of needing them in the future.

That, coupled with the province's proximity to Hong Kong lead to entrepreneurs all around China rushing into the province to establish their businesses.

+nonames000 he is in the show, just not very often. He does have some awesome stories about his life. You should look them up.

A buddy of mine went there and got himself one of those kits for an EGPU for a ridiculously good price. Worked pretty well after some tinkering. He explained to me that there's department stores dedicated to Motherboards or just PC parts and that they make any computer store from Canada look anemic... NCIX, Canada Computers, New Egg even - have nothing on the selection you can find. You can even find someone there to fix old out dated motherboards for you too.

To elaborate on why Shenzhen is the powerhouse it is today: This 'economic free zone' that the communist party adapted, was actually a Libertarian Free Market Capitalist platform (almost, but not perfect example of Hayek Economics). China was just getting over its 'Great Leap Forward' and had 70 million people starve to death under its 'far left' policy. They realized they could not sustain the nation on socialist ideology, so they opened up special 'free areas'. (Very Libertarian btw, but not perfect). These areas had little to no regulation, very little taxes, and no bylaw officers shutting businesses down because the fire exits were too close, or the lighting was bad, or they didn't have CSA approved safety measures. Un-regulated free markets exist around the world, and those markets land where government backs away and lets the public create something. If you like Maker-spaces, the Libertarian Free market Capitalism method will make it easier and more affordable for you to create something, and sell to whoever you want to. It is kinda scary how a nation that self identifies itself as communist, made it easier to start a business than you can in the US. Government needs to step out of the way. Free the Makers! Great documentary was done by Wired Magazine "Future Cities". Watch it. Also as a kicker, watch Tom Woods "The libertarian speech I'd deliver to the whole country' Free the makers!

Free the makers, let the workers die.

Incorrect. They let the workers become business owners, and let the customers decide.

"These areas had little to no regulation, very little taxes, and no bylaw officers shutting businesses down because the fire exits were too close, or the lighting was bad, or they didn't have CSA approved safety measures." Safety laws: Government tyranny gone mad. No wonder everyone views libertarianism as a huge joke.

Many of these ordinary people make a lot of money, then escape china and invest in real estate in Vancouver or Toronto. Free market Capitalism exists, its just too bad the US doesn't take part in it anymore. (hence why the wealth is elsewhere, and middle class Chinese are growing in capital where as... well.... #detroit )

Safety laws actually create monopolies, but hey, thanks for supporting glorious goverment. Chairman Trump or Clinton will give you an extra ration of bread.
