You could always try the Science and Technology Metro station. It is full of fake and copied goods. Be prepared to barter!!

Yeah, go to the Science and technology Metro station. It's huge and they have a good selection of everything. Do NOT go to market at the intersection of Nanjing Lu and Chongqing Lu. The vultures there will rip you apart. A very unpleasant shopping experience.

I've been to the one on Nanjing Lu. I loathe the vendors there. I am Chinese, and my customers are foreigners. I bargained hard for my customer.s And The vendors there insulted me!!! Bad experience.. Well, it could be happen anywhere in Shanghai...

OK...I will be the lone voice of dissent.

I prefer the Nanjing Lu.....but start at the top floors. Bring a sense of humor (No "u" in This word!), and bargain like crazy.

Personally...think the selection and variety is better there. Bring my guests all the time.
