B&H Photo-Video
Visiting NYC's most popular camera shop is an experience in itself – it’s massive and crowded, and bustling with black-clad (and tech-savvy) Hasidic Jewish salesmen. Your chosen item is dropped into a bucket, which then moves up and across the ceiling to the purchase area (which requires a second queue).
It’s all very orderly and fascinating, and the selection of cameras, camcorders, computers and other electronics is outstanding.

Security Intelligence Technologies
Wannabe G-men won't find a better place to pick up surveillance and counter-surveillance gear. Some patrons seem to be here for a laugh, but others are very serious indeed. Check out the Predator VI night-vision goggles, Air Tasers, line-bug detection devices - everything your paranoid little heart desires.

Compusmart
Probably the best all-round retailer of computer software and hardware in Montréal - good enough that Future Shop will refer you here if you can't find the right item. Prices are competitive though higher than across the border in the US, but if you need it, you need it.

Tepito
The mother of all street markets: a maze of semipermanent stalls spreading east and north from La Lagunilla, with miles of clothes, pirated CDs and DVDs and electronics. Also known as the Thieves’ Market for its black-market goods and pickpockets.
