Golden Computer Accessories

Golden Computer Accessories is a great little store on Des Veoux Road Central, just behind The Centre. It sells all of the standard computer wares that one might expect; hard drives, memory cards, printers, networking accessories, you get the idea, but also a number of other electronic items like shredders, card media accessories, and television accessories.
What is refreshing, is to see a very well stocked computer store outside of the Wan Chai Computer Centre (but it does have sister branches in Wan Chai 298 and Mong Kok). What is also nice about this store is that they have quite a large chunk of real estate with all of their products displayed on shelves around the shop. As such, you don’t feel like you’re walking into a junk store.
If you do have a chance to go, ask for Chris, he’s very knowledgeable and will steer you in the right direction. It is useful if you do know something about computers, or what you want to buy, because they will try to up-​sell you on some products. For example, I wanted to buy a hard drive for my Mac, and they presented me the Mac formatted one, which was HK$ 50 more expensive. It wasn’t until I explain to them that I could reformat my own PC drive and save myself $ 50, that they conceded to give me what I wanted.
The prices are very reasonable, comparable to the other computer centres around Hong Kong, despite being in Central. Don’t forget to also ask for a discount. As with most stores in Hong Kong, the list price is not the real price. Ask for a discount you may get 5 to 10% off.
