We went to the opening sale of the new Bic Camera in Tenjin yesterday. I am not very impressed: Yes they have much more stuff than the "old" branch but nothing very interesting to a real geek. Most of the items related to IT are still at the old Bic. This new branch of Bic Camera is definitely targetted at the the general public.
The store was very noisy, a lot of sale clerks were screaming "deals" through megaphone. Not good. It was also very crowded, like if the whole city went there to take a look. I hate crowded stores where you can't move at the speed you want and go where you want wothout having to fend off the crowd...
However we found a good deal on a Konica camera. At less than 9,000 yens we couldn't skip on this one.
This morning we went again to get an heavily discounted camera (19,980 yens), but when we arrived we saw a line up stretching for 2 blocks... We quickly went back home quite disappointed...
