How to buy electronic components in China

Today most of consumer electronics are produced in the countries of Southeast Asia, mainly in China and Taiwan. And there is a local flavour, from the traditions of these countries, to purchase required components, parts and accessories.

The video shows a typical Chinese market of electronic components. Such a marketplace exist in every industrial city in southern China, even more than one, usually one near others.

Some times ago I was able to visit the electronic components marketplace Hqew in Shenzhen, China.

There was simply enormous amount of components available for buyers, including hard-to-find, discontinues and obsolete semiconductors. Succesfully, the market is equipped with computer terminals to search all information of the target components and suppliers.
