The Dapitan Arcade in Quezon City may be the best place to do that. It has been dubbed as bagsakan or the place to be if you want overruns of export-quality home finds.
Located at Dapitan corner Kanlaon Street, the tiangge has been the go-to place of those who want to decorate their homes on a budget for decades. Some items still even have tags on them, while others, if given some more TLC would surely pass as a branded item.
