Online Chinese Supermarkets?

Hi,

I was just wondering what the best (i.e. cheapest) online Chinese supermarket is? I've been looking at http://www.wingyipstore.co.uk.

Thanks

    I don't know about cheapest but just did a search of Chinese Supermarkets I have been in (in store, not online)

    See Woo is good but doesn't do an online shopping service.

    I had a look at their site before - in the end I gave up. Their site could possibly be nominated for the worst website of all time :mad:

    Thanks though ;)

    Wai Yee Hong which is in Bristol, have an online store here: http://www.waiyeehong.com/

    The chinese supermarket in the Hockley area of Nottingham has an online store too: http://www.orientalmart.co.uk/

    Not had any personal experience of either online stores but the physical stores are both pretty good :)

    Never used the online supermarket but the Bristol store is very clean.

    This company have been running for many years and the store is clean

    I also travel to Wai Yee Hong in Bristol, some 50 odd miles for it each way too!

    I think they have been closed down for a few months now - I used to go in there a bit when I lived in the city.
