Better hire a car than take taxi. 6 person need 2 taxi. If you take van is better. You can contact Pak Yanto, my regular driver @ guide everytime I go to Bandung. He can speak good Malay with moderate English. His HP number +628156110229.

The fact that they are not even rejected, i feel cheated. Oh well....personal opinions are always differ with each other. you seem to have gone to the wrong shop, if you want real rejected goods, you must go to Pabrik Badjoe in jalan buah batu bandung, they have factory behind the shop and all the goods are form the factory. but don't expect armani or guess brand, they only produced the executive, wrangler jeans, etc.Added on November 3, 2011, 9:41 ams Added on November 3, 2011, 9:48 amBefore you go to bandung you better read this : http://www.tripadvisor.com/ShowTopic-g2977..._Java_Java.html I also just returned from Bandung, two weeks ago, just for sightseeing and a little shopping.

Merging this to Bandung thread soon.
To answer you.. If the electronics made in Indonesia & Indonesian brand -yes it's cheap but so far I can't find any Indonesian electronics there. Those branded electronic - M'sia is one of the cheapest in the world liao except US, SG, HK & few more countries..so no point looking for electronics there |

probably refering to my old post:
QUOTE(stimix @ Oct 22 2010, 08:03 AM) I hv just completed my 2D 1N Bandung trip from Jakarta Airport. Now back to Jakarta. From Jakarta airport to Bandung you can either take Primajasa (Further right from Ciptaganti Kiosk) or Ciptaganti express (Beside A&W). The fare is at 75K rupiah The trip suppose to take 3 hrs but due to the jam at Jakarta and even worst after Bandung Toll gate at Purbaleungyi, the trip can be as long as 4hrs!! sigh. Train ticket is cheaper at 55K rupiah/pax but you need to goto Gambir station. Lotsa delay due to the current raining season. I even hv to cancel my return train ticket to Jakarta Y'day bcos of landslide!! - Took the station taxi to Jakarta instead for 70K/pax..no choice.. Within 2D1N, we visited atleast 3 factory outlet i.e Rumah Mode, Fashion City (Beside Rumah Mode) and Summit at Jln Riau. Using Bandung bus system is cheap alternative at only 3,000 rupiah .pax...just ask around or flag any angkutan kota van on how to go & where to switch van.. On 2nd day, I rented one of the train station taxi for daily trip ~ Bandung for 350K rupiah Visited Tangkuban Prahu Volcano (A must!! - Will post the volcano pics soon..), We also round the Lembang area & passing by lotsa nurseries..just like in Cameron but ppl in this highland is more populated Temp on top of the volcano rim at 1830M is rather dissapointing actually...I dun reallly feel cold compare to Cameron Highland.. Those factories outlets....haizzz...I dun buy anything!! It's expensive to me!! Nothing cheaper than 100K rupiah even their Polo T-shirt!! I was expecting Rp30K Tee but all >Rp100K!! Added..Tangkuban Prahu Volcano. Taken at the rim of the volcano: ![]() |

Another word of advice when visiting Tangkuban Perahu. If you plan to go down to Domas crater, you will have no choice but to get a guide. According to my driver, the rate should be rp 250,000 per trip but at the entrance the guide will tell you that it is rp250,000 per hour and anything after will be additional charge. Usually the whole hike down will be abt 2 hrs. So, you have to bargain for an agreed upon price before continuing down to the crater. And at the same time , three other guide will follow you down too and will sell you souvenir at the end of the journey. Politely turn them down if you are not interested. Their opening price for a souvenir to me was rp450,000 which is absurb. I told them rp50,000 is all i am willing to pay for 10 keychains.
