Nicosia is cheaper than Girne but if you want to buy in Girne we found Fiscos is quite good. Wherever you go make sure you keep asking for the best price and don't whatever you do pay the first price they give you as there is always room for negotiation.

karen



thankyou for that advice.

we dont mind going to nicosia

Would you recommend any particular shops?



it's great to have help.

last time we were over there in July we could only find expensive showrooms that were out of our price range.

hi Kcboro



The name address of the shop is

Depreli Elektronic Ltd

5-7 K.Kaymakli, Lefkosa



I am not very good at directions but will try, from the bus station Keeping the bus station on your left go to the main road walk towards towards the large roundabout, straight across the roundabout

keep walking down this main road for about fifteen mins on your right hand side you will see the shop it is on the corner of the main road and another street, you cant miss it it is a large double fronted shop. good luck I hope you find it, it is very similar to the furniture shops in uk with furniture displayed in the showrooms, and they are very helpful we bought most of our furniture from them and they are storing it for us until April.

hi malcy,

i was wondering how do you know Tarim supplies to Fiskos and all other shops, I do know that he does not, when I read these threads I think people who really are looking for advices are mislead with the misinformation given.
