Used Appliance Souk

well this got a big response.

Blah!

everything in ksa is an used appliance, mizzy

The "Hiraaj Bin Gassim"

Located in southern Riyadh (at the edge of the South Ring Road) is quite a famous spot for second hand merchandise (third and fourth hand can be found as well ) you can find almost anything at dirt cheap prices or sky high rip offers. Be it electronics, cloths, furniture, food or even the kitchen sink. its all there and at negotiable prices. best days to visit (and also the most crowded) are as follows.

Friday - Top choice for most cutomers so its crowded, but also by the merchandisers so you have better chances of finding your golden egg. or alaadin's lamp for that matter.

Thursday - almost as good as friday

Wed - Almost as good as Thu.

rest of the week days - slow and casual, but still worth a visit.

if you don't know how to get there, any taxi driver can take you there, just mention "Hiraaj Bin Gassim".

Note:
if your a female and you want to go, try to get some others to come with you, it's safer. and its even safer to have gents with you, even if its the driver. shop at your own risk

Thanks, Salman.

Guess I need to find a native to accompany me, to haggle for me

now I wonder where youd find one. hehehehe

A NATIVE is one who thinks and believes like the LOCALS, in my book.
