No, not a place to buy them. I want to know where I can go buy supplies, Clothes, strollers, stuff that I will need when my wife has a baby. We don't want to shop online, as we actually want to see what we are buying. Anybody know where to go?

I came to this thread seeking a place to purchase cheap, perhaps wholesale, Korean babies. This thread should be flagged for false-advertising.

Congrats on the expected bundle.

We got most of the stuff for our little one at Namdaemun market. Just up the hill from the tourist info booth, (north west corner of the market) there are 2 different indoor markets for baby / child stuff. We got just about everything except the crib and high chair from there.

Most things were between 10% and 50% of the department store (home plus) prices.

The high chair we bought online and the crib we got from Tzechuk.

buying online is a hell of a lot cheaper.

I've got a baby back pack to give away if you want it. It looks something like this:

If one of you are Korean, go online. Great places. I think you can find a bunch of links in the stickies area.

I recommend renting any big toys you get. I have spent over a million won on stuff that my son only used for a few times. I have now started renting stuff.
