Don't know about this one... if true anyway you can bring them to the building in Nanjing Xi Lu / Cheng Du lu. At the east of this crossroad, on Nanjing Xi Lu. I don't remember the accurate number but it is easy to find.

kind of doubt the Sci-Tech station market can all be closed, but as Karu says, there are plenty of other "fake" markets. TaoBao Center on nanjing West road...at corner of ChengDu North Rd and nanjing West rd is still there, 3 stories.

IMO, i prefer to going to the Nanjing Lu one which is No580, West Nan jing Lu, because the Sci-tech one is too large to walk around.

Just went to the science and technology fake market a few days ago. It's right above the subway. It's alive and running well.

Shutting down fake markets for legal reasons! In China! A wet dream of WTO and Western brand companies.
They close down in Time Square or move out since rent fees going up a hell. Wuzong Lu over several floors….
