Anyone know of any good astronomical shops in Hong Kong or Taiwan ? I have friends going there for holiday soon. Wonder if it is cheaper to get stuff through them.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Anyway, I no time to check the price, but I think should be cheaper than in Singapore.
Have a nice day.
Can try the Hong Kong Space Museum... got a shop selling astro stuff... selling mostly vixen stuff, some celestron and some unfamiliar brands...other than grandeye, any other astro shops in hong kong? will be going there next week.

Well, if you're not particular about branding and related stuffs. Try the night markets.
For HK, try http://www.fullyselect.com
Extremely cheap prices for extremely unknown made-in-china brands.
Good thing about night markets is that you can bargain down to 80% of the price easily.
