Yongsan electronics market or Living & Digital, Namdaemun (across the street from the gate that burned a few years ago), Chungmuro. Even some Hi-marts stock tripods, but they were too pricey.

I used Chrome but I got my friend to do the same for me in IE (Since I refuse to install it), to the same result. At best it linked her back to the original page for no reason.

I'll try this Living & Digital place, I've been to the Yongsan place before.
