Description:
Bic Camera is an electronics retailer found only in Japan. The store is divided into two buildings: the first (Building 1) in Imaizumi, stocking phone accessories, computers and computing equipment, mobile phones, and a small Apple store. The top floor sells liquor and has a bicycle and golf store. The second Bic Camera (Building 2) is in Tenjin, and it’s geared more towards domestic appliances (like washing machines, microwaves, vacuums, home security systems and A/C machines) but is larger than Building 1, with more products on offer.
Bic is a great place to head if you’re in need of those essential appliances – perhaps for those who’ve moved recently or newly arrived in Japan. They have the little things too – like adapters, cameras, and electronic dictionaries for those who want to improve their Japanese!
