NanJing Road TaoBao Market sells them. Theyre not that cheap, and not that amazingly made.. |

I can't even figure out if the OP wants fake phones as the display models that have no guts in them so the phones don't work but are used for display purposes or if he is looking for grey market copies that actually work or is looking for working or non working copies of branded phones. Maybe with an explanation of what he is really looking for may get a useful answer to his question. |

Baoshan market has lots of counterfeit electronics.
*tons* of counterfeit phones. Go to baoshan subway. Definately the best place for that. |

Chinese friend bought a fake Iphone, 1 month and dead it went... why bother?
Grey import, suggest you have a good trustworhty lead, chance you get a fake is to big in my opinion... |

I bought 5 fake ipods and a fake sony "32Gb" usb stick from those markets near baoshan railway. I gave 4 of the ipods away, only 1 of them lasted longer than a week. the usb stick was a dud too. oh and the fake timberland boots fell apart after 2 months. lesson learnt! |

Well...fakes are fakes, no matter what...Just to catch gogos.
However, not everything is bad in Baoshan... Just need use common sense, and sure, need bit of luck.
I bought one notebook Fujitsu FMV Biblo there in April 2005 for 3500 rmb, still running perfect.
Last year, bought a besk top PC for wife's young brother for 1000 kwai including KB and mouse )he uses QQ, so did not want to sink too much). Last month, Motherboard failed, back to same shop, changed MB for 120...
All in all, reasonable considering this is like consumables. |

Of course the 32gb USB sticks are fake... how much did you pay? That's a con at all the markets.
120 for a new motherboard?!?! that's crazy cheap. |
