Buy electronics at Tan Thanh market

Last week, Mr. Le Huy was in Ton Duc Thang street (Hanoi), bought two USBs on Tan Thanh market (Lang Son). After a day of use, a plug into the computer did not receive it, and the other fell to the ground and broke.

Every year at the end of the year, many people from everywhere come to Tan Thanh border gate market (Lang Son) to prepare shopping for the new year. This place sells all Chinese goods, especially many electronic goods. However, the quality of the products here is not good, in many cases, the goods have not been used for a long time.

Mr. Le Huy in Ton Duc Thang street (Hanoi) bought two USB devices, one 1 GB for 80 thousand, 8 GB - 160 thousand at Tan Thanh market. He said he had chosen and tried again to try very carefully. In addition, the form of USB is also very beautiful but the price is cheap so he bought two cars right away. He even called Hanoi to ask if anyone needs it to buy it for him.

There is nothing to say if both USB devices are okay. The problem is that after just one day, the one he accidentally dropped on the ground has already peeled off the shell and the board inside. The second one (1 GB type) "copy" and "paste" the content you need to finish hangs the device, the next day will also fail. Worried during the whole day, Mr. Huy had to "give up" and grumbled in frustration: 'I thought it was cheap, it turned out to be too expensive .

On the sky, under the electronics

Going around all the markets in Tan Thanh border gate, you will see many kinds of USB models and models, all with famous names such as Sony, IBM, Jogr . No USB, here and there There are mobile phones with full flair, like Nokia, O2, Sony Ericsson, with familiar models. Audiovisual equipment has video players such as California, Samsung, Sony, Toshiba, Sharp . Looking over, the design is very beautiful and attractive, but it is difficult to know the quality.

Along with buying bad electronics in Lang Son, Ms. Bich Dung in Nguyen An Ninh street (Hanoi) bought a Nokia N73 Chinese mobile phone. The machine looks as beautiful as the real thing but the price is quite 'low', only 1.5 million dong. On the phone, I found a 3.2 Megapixel camera, a MP3 music player, bright colors, eye-catching with 256 MB memory card, like "genuine" goods. Dung said, there were people who said that the fake Chinese phones were used quickly, but she left them outside. " Just one week after the date of purchase, this bad N73 has a lot of strength and no reason why. Bring out the repaired goods, the mechanic breaks the board, must replace 1 million dong, close to the machine money ", Dung Dung contact.

Not only phones or USB, DVD players sold in Tan Thanh are also difficult to check quality. A DVD player is priced from 300 to 650 thousand VND, half the price of the same kind sold in Hanoi or elsewhere. Just last year, Mr. Khiem in Quan Su Street (Hanoi) bought two California brands, ' After three months, one died from the source, the other was still awake, at the time of watching, at no time ,' he said.

Digital music player is also a product that is sold quite a lot here. ' Miserable, just bought is broken! 'Mr. Thanh, from Lo Duc (Hanoi), laments. He is the "master" of the new MP4 player that has been used for 2 weeks but "plugged into the computer without receiving".

Mr. Minh Hong, a skilled electronics repairer in Nam Dong area (Hanoi), receives a lot of broken phones and DVD players every day, most of them are Chinese goods. Mr. Hong said, 'In fact, if you choose or luck, the buyer will earn a very good one in a pile of good and bad quality products .

Anh Duong in Phuc Xa (Hanoi), a person who used a lot of things to buy from the border markets in Lang Son, draw experience: Consider carefully the price and function of electronic goods here . Any good or cheap thing must be cautious. However, in order to avoid the psychology of pity, resentment when "just bought something that is broken", he said, "it is best to buy in reputable places, with decent warranty ".
