Shopping In Delhi, advise needed

I am visiting Delhi shortly & intend to shop some electronic products & imported cosmetics & toiletries in bulk for personal use.

Just the way, in Bombay one can shop for imported food products & genuine imported cosmetics from Crawford market & electronics from Alpha or Hira Panna, at very economical rates, which are the markets in Delhi to buy such things ??

No advises for shopping malls & M Block or Khan market pls.
They are only retailers, not wholesale market.

I wanna know about the wholesale market for the same in Delhi????

While buying imported cosmetics be careful, most of these are fake and quite difficult to make out.

Very true especially with Deo's etc , test them out before you pick them up...a lot of them wont have any gas and a lot of them come out like a liquid...

What kind of good exactly , i have found that in a lot of cases there is a decrease in the price differential between original and grey stuff making it more prudent to buy the originals..
