    Funan is one of the places where it is not necessary to wrestle with sharks. It's a huge place on multiple levels that mainly deals with computers, accessories and software. Prices are displayed and fixed. It is possible to look around without constantly being hassled. There is a good selection of goods on offer.

    Computer hardware, software and accessories.

    Funan IT Mall caters to some of the biggest IT and electronics shops and department stores in Singapore. Some of this shop are Courts and Challenger. There are also some non-computer related shops here such as sports apparel, furniture shops and even a wedding dress shop.

    The purpose of going to this Mall is to get actual recommended retail prices of IT and electronic device you wish to buy. Then, head off to Sim Lim Square to get cheaper prices. Remember to ask for Goods and Services Tax (GST) included prices because some might say lower or cheaper prices without the actual GST. Also, ask if the shop is a STAR retailer shop which provides security and guarantee to sell only the original items. Moreover, ask if the shop provides GST refund which you can claim on the airport or in Sim Lim Square.

    Depending on what you are going to buy. Generally, desktop computer costs near to 1k to almost 2k SGD. While laptop computers, cost between 1k to 4k dollars depending on the specs.

    Funan IT Mall: All the Geeky Stuff

  • Singapore is most probably the best place to buy electronics and computer gadgets. The latest models are available on a low price and there are plethora of shops to visit. The topmost floor hosts a bigger store that has the full spectrum of gadgets.

    Any computing and PDA related item can be found in Funan IT Mall that has five floors of shops specialising to computers, both hardware and software. To be fair, there is one Christian bookshop and a few furniture outlets, too. The lower level has some cafes and fast food joints, but usually there is too much noise from game exhibition or similar, and you really can't hang out in the cafe for extended periods.

    Most of the stores display the prices and there's no need to haggle with the sales clerk. For haggling, consider visiting Sim Lim Square. Asian manufacturers specialise in small gadgets that sport the same design. There is not much difference in the features, but some items are more reliable than the others. Check your clerk for suggestions, sometimes you may get an honest opinion.

    Funan IT Mall: Shopping For Electronics
  • By snux_849 on November 5, 2005

  • For techno geeks, the Funan IT Mall is the place to be. This place is much quieter than Sim Lim or Lucky Plaza. Lucky Plaza salesmen can be quite pushy (which I rather find annoying).

    Try the Fuwell IT shop -- #05-44 Funan Digitalife Mall

    memory cards, etc.

    Depends on what you need to buy but I think that prices in Fuwell are reasonable.

  • Shops full of electrical equipment, allows one to barter a great bargain. I would recommend checking out a few and perhaps doing some research before you go there, too.

    Funan IT Mall: High end, high end prices

    Funan has really evolved into the absolute high end computer shopping centre. Ten years ago, there were still some shops offering true personal service, but recently, it's really been taken over by chainstores offering inpersonal service. Funan is not my kind of shopping centre, and if you're looking for bargains or possible negotiation of the prices (read: haggle), you're better off looking around the shopping centres outside the city district (Bukit Timah Shopping Centre, Beauty World and Bukit Timah Plaza are better, local places). If you want to stay in town, try Sim Lim Square instead.

    Anything associated with computers.

    You can expect to pay more than in the rest of Singapore due to its reputation. The upside is that you're likely to find just about anything here.

    Funan is close to City Hall MRT station and has about 6 floors of IT gadgets and electronics. The shops here sell all your regular digital stuff, computers, etc., and there are a couple of mega-stores (Harvey Norman and Challenger) in this building. I personally would shop here over Sim Lim Square, which is also big on IT and electronics, because the shops in Funan seem less fly-by-night than the ones at Sim Lim! I normally buy my digital products from Alan Photo (but...I think tourists get worse rates so maybe go with a local and research your prices!), John 3:16 (exceptional service) and PK Computer.

    Buying from the smaller shops will usually save you about 20% than those bigger mega-stores with controlled prices :)

    One of Singapores premier IT Malls and home to one of the few Taco Bells located in Asia and the Southern Hemisphere, Funan IT Mall is a must hit while in Singapore. Some may say i am bias due to the fact that i only first visited Funan because of the fact that there was a Teco Bell located inside, but after stuffing my face with bean burritos, i discovered Funan was actaully and impressive IT Mall. Second only maybe to Sim Lim Square when it comes to IT Malls in Singapore. Funan offers competitive prices, located in Singapores city centre.
