Guide du marché

Practical guide to navigating and buying in SEG Plaza / Huaqiangbei. Use this as a playbook while you build the verified vendor directory.

Location & Access

  • Address: 1002 Huaqiang North Rd, Futian, Shenzhen.
  • Metro: Huaqiang North / Huaqiangbei area (lines vary by station). Use the nearest station exit that brings you to Huaqiang North Rd quickly.
  • Typical hours: many shops operate roughly daytime; some close around early evening.

Navigate Faster

  • Enter via north entrance for phone/accessory & repair focus.
  • Floors 1–8 = main market (categories vary).
  • 1–2F: basic components • 3–4F: laptops & mobile accessories • 5–6F: PC parts & builds.
  • Walk slowly, compare 3–5 booths per item, then return to the best quote.
  • Mark good stalls using WeChat contact or a quick photo.
  • Food + restrooms are commonly found on dining floors (often 9–10F).

Negotiation Tips

  • Start at 50–70% of the first quoted price and negotiate politely.
  • Ask “bulk price?” even for singles (“taking samples”).
  • Smile, build rapport, and be ready to walk away.
  • Bring a small black bag / look like a regular buyer (it can help pricing psychology).

Repairs & Custom Builds

Repairs are common (phone + laptop/PC). Look for signs like 维修 (repair) or 电脑维修 (computer repair). Many booths can do same‑day upgrades or full assembly.


About the directory (vendors vs booths vs brands)

  • Booths are stalls. A booth is not a company. One vendor can operate multiple booths and can move over time.
  • Vendeurs are seller identities (companies or traders). The directory tracks vendors and their current booths when known.
  • Brands (Lenovo, Dell, etc.) are sold by many vendors; brand names are not a tenant list.

Our goal is accuracy: verified entries first, expanded continuously through on-site updates and vendor submissions.

About prices: prices change fast (stock + demand + bargaining). If you want, you can keep price ranges as “examples” only, and update them after you gather on-site quotes. This site is built so you can edit content easily.
