Shops in Yongsan?

[bowji]

Im trying to stop by Yongsan electronics market today and I was wandering if there were any places members here visited and/or would recommend. Specifically, keyboard related stores that I should check out or "MUST" visit. Its quite a journey so I would like to go prepared and drop by as many places as possible. I want to eye-shop and try out different switches/boards, more than I want to binge-buy but... thats never the case for places like this.

Ive read up on some places in the Korean forums, but Im not as active there to ask... 
So far, I found out about PCgears and LeadersKeys. Any other places that you would recommend will be greatly appreciated<3

Hopefully, this thread can be a good reference for tourists planning to make a trip to Yongsan when they visit Korea.

Sorry i have no idea about the shops in Yongsan but could i be rude and ask you to keep an eye out for this Totoro key for me please? and pick up a 3 pack if you do see them? (according to ADSRelease on reddit it comes in singles or a 3 pack)




You would be my hero.

I would love that exact one but as long as Totoro is the same cute logo/picture then i'll be happy with whatever color it is.
Thank you very much Bowji.

I couldnt find it 
If theres an exact address I can try better next time but I was only able to find full keyboards... a **** ton of keyboards...

(I will upload more pictures once I get time to write a review. Here or on a new thread.)

It's okay! The guy on reddit just said that he saw them but I have no actual idea where so whenever someone mentions that they're going I just ask them to keep an eye out for me.
Thanks for doing that bowji!

Bowji, have you seen any HHKBs there, and if so, what's the pricing like? Knowing Korea I may be able to bargain a bit on the price

Looking forward to the pictures

Yup, but only two stores had topre boards, LeadersKey and PCgears. The HHKBs were out of stock in both places but had them on display, with prices reaching 350,000 won (~320 usd). Thats the non-silent version so I think the prices were from a few years ago when the yen was stronger than it is now. Seeing the Korean forums, most Koreans get their HHKB from Amazon.jp and has it shipped here.

Looking forward to the pictures

I just wrote about my trip with pictures here:
