To the more local markets and expos where you really can make a finding, especially if you are just looking for good deals, on decent gear.

The major locations would be Expo in Phuket Town should not be missed, Super Cheap a bit outside Phuket Town to the north, and the Weekend market near Central Festival, open only Saturdays and Sundays from 15:00 to late, here you more or less can find anything they are selling at the beaches, for a fraction of the price, highly recommended to have a look here before dealing at the beach.

Then there is all the Fresh Markets, stall vendors at the beaches, niche shops, and so on and so on... Yes, it feels like there is no stop on what's available here.

There is loads of traditional handicrafts, clothing, jewellery, antiques, housewares, electronics, dvds, bluray, video games available here, just remember that sometime if the price is to good to be true, you might be looking at a knock off, rather than the real brand. So to stay safe, the real deal is usually available at the major retailers.
