Where to buy a compass?

You can buy a compass at Dan Sinh market @ 336 Nguyen Cong Tru St, District 1, HCMC.

Hi all, Does anybody know where to buy a compass in Saigon? Thanks...

Are you talking about a compass for drawing or a compass that points North?






The drawing (protractor+compass) one can be found in any bookstore where they sell student supplies.  The directional kind can also be found in a larger bookstore since it's mostly used when studying geography.

Or, on your smart phone's app store.

You can find it out near your leading book stores!

There was a time when having possession of a compass will land you in jail. Back during the "boat people" era.

Well that explains why people keep looking at my compass (directional kind) I taped on my motorbike and asking me what it is for.
