There are lots of places to shop, but Meena Bizarre (sp) is worth a visit, down past Computer Plaza.

Make sure you check the prices here first, and be prepared to haggle.

OK

1) Been to Dubai a few times now
2) Not strayed into the "electronic souk" specifically

Everywhere else: no difference to European prices

Just my finding!

But Dubai's an awesome place anyway....

A friend who has been recently was on the lookout for cheap electronic goods, and didn't find any bargains at all. Perhaps the reputation it once had is now erroneous.

I go to Dubai quite often and must say electronic goods are not much cheaper unless you do your shopping at the airport. Choice is good however.

Recommend the "City Centre" shopping mall in Deira.
