Perfect Radios

You can find Perfect Radios at Shop No 866 in the Old Lajpat Rai Market. If you’ve ever been to the market, you know it’s crowded and loud, but that’s the way we like it. We’ve been sitting in this same spot for quite a long time. Radios and electronics are what we know best. The shop is small and packed with all sorts of components and older equipment. It’s not like those new malls where everything is behind glass. Here, everything is within reach and there’s a bit of dust on the shelves. People come to us when they’re looking for something specific that the big stores don’t carry anymore. Old Lajpat Rai Market has its own rhythm. We see the same faces every morning when we open up the shutters. It’s a lot of talking to customers and trying to figure out what part they need for an old set. Sometimes it’s a bit chaotic with all the people walking by, but it’s home for us. We don't have a website or anything fancy; we just stay at the shop and wait for people to come in. It’s a simple way of doing things. Our space is filled with the smell of solder and old plastic. We’re just a small part of this big market, doing what we’ve always done. It’s a practical life, working with electronics every day. Most of the time it's just one of us here.
