This is by far the best market I know of. It's huge and has a facinating collection of parts, tools and supplies. I did two visits out here on this trip, once by bike, once by bus - I prefered the bike. The bus stops are both decent walks at either end. I took the e33 express bus which seemed to puzzle the driver as the cost is fixed (10RMB), not cheap and I only travelled two stops. I've included both the bus and bike maps below.
Since I first visited this market the car park has been sold to residential development and it's surrounded by apartments towers. It's not hard to imagine this market moving further out a some point. The photo shows the main building and a smaller supplies building. The supplies building is also worth a visit for stuff like packing, anti-static apparel etc. The first and second floors of the main building are enormous and loaded with great things to see. The third floor is PCs and pos terminals, worth a quick look. You can see the scale of the place in the photos of the maps, each small booth is about 6'x12'.
