Hi everyone,
I’m interested in finding a place to buy piercing jewelry which is larger than the regular piercings. So far, I’ve only found Ann Shop (online). The same stuff that I can buy in America for 200-300, I have to pay over 1000. It’s really ridiculous. I just paid 1150 dollars right now to buy some 10mm piercing jewelry because I’m sizing up.
So, does anyone know of any place where I can buy some big sized jewelry piercings?
Any help is greatly appreciated!
The heart of the wholesale trade for silver pierced earrings in Taipei is just a few blocks west and north of main station. The area is bordered by Yan Ping North road to the west. Tai Yuan road to the east. Shi Min Da Dao (civic boulevard) to the south, and Chang An west road to the north. You will find the suppliers in all the small lanes and alleys bordered by the four road above.
I don’t know if they have exactly what your require.
Some of the establishments are wholesale only, but some do both retail and wholesale. You will have to take a Chinese speaker with you.
A few years ago I took a foreign friend to the area and she was able to buy a half dozen silver post earrings for much cheaper than from “suitcase” stands and shops. The establishment was a wholesaler. I don’t know if they sold her the earrings as a courtesy because she was a foreigner, or if they also did a retail trade. While we were there I saw several people in their early 20s go in and but a lot of earrings. It was obvious this establishment was primarily a supplier, as all these people inserted their selections into large styrofoam pads you see used by earring retail shops and street vendors. I once tried to buy a silver necklace at a supplier in this area, but couldn’t, as I had not opened a business account with them.
check it out and let us know what you find.
