Welcome to the forum. I spent time there many years ago when I was in the U.S. Marines. I was at the Subic base and traveled to Angles City. You have a beatiful country.

So what is a junk shop? Is it a store with used items? Or is it a salvage yard to recycle metals? Mike.

Junk shops in the Philippines are stores with everything under the sun from working to non-working goods. Think flea market + 2nd hand store + auto junk yard. They are usually not salvage yards. They are called junk shops because most stuff is junk (not a derogatory term) but may have working parts to fix something else.
