Locals never shop at Ben Thanh Market 😂
well it is depend on the type of good, they have top notch fresh fruit there especially foreign one like taiwan guava or australia grape
locals dont shop at ben thanh market, they go to the local market. ben thanh market is for tourists so everything is overpriced@@Nhan_nguyen271
Fake Nike slippers I bought from cho ben thanh for 40 U.S when in America it's 20 U.S for real nikes 😂
Ya you should try more local vendors and stay away from the touristy trap. Wish you all the best and have a happy stay in Vietnam
Wow I was at the Ben Thanh market back in 2023 November to January… it was a lot of sellers that I didn’t like they were annoying! You got a lot good videos!
I remember going there in 2015. Shit were expensive as fuuuuuck. The vendors would try to persuade you to buy by speaking in what they think your language is. I would constantly change my accent or combine accents, making it hard for the vendors to guess where I'm from.
Everytime I go there in Vietnam my mum always makes bargains . It's true my mum bought my sister a cap 🧢 it was expensive. This guy that we bought jewellery from told us he sells the cap more cheaper .
Everything is at least 3 times as expensive there, always offer price at 1/4 what they tell you and go up from there 😅
Hey Peter, love your video contents; so real. believe you will meet your goals one day whatever they are. And you are so cute hope you will find a nice companion soon to add more joy to your life. Best of luck. From Vancouver Canada as well. 💕

What do you use to film your videos?

I spent five months in HCMC last year. Ben Thanh Market was an overpriced hellhole, even before the pandemic hit them. When I visited in 2022, as they were just beginning to reopen, they seemed at least a bit more humble with their pricing, since business was just starting to pick up again. However, last year, the prices skyrocketed without any limit. Even with inflation in, this is nowhere close to being justified.
Back in 2018, the food was still "okay" there, but now it's just plain cold, oversweetened, and overpriced. While I'm happy that Vietnam is doing well, Ben Thanh and the surrounding area in District 1 are just full of overpriced stuff and scammers.
Still hope you enjoy your stay/new start there tho.
Is 300k Đồng for a leather belt expensive? Relative to USD, that’s like $13. I can’t find a belt at Target that’s under $25. What’s the local price?
Yes 300K is expensive. Local price is 120K - 150K.
Nem nướng 120k is not that expensive in Ben Thanh Market, D1, normally 80-100k in other district 😂😂
I am visiting Saigon from US and just went there today. Was thinking about going back to eat tomorrow but I guess not. 😅
You should! Just don't expect too much haha
Bro this content is sooo funny, I literally did the same when I was in Nam. Start with English and switch the Viet but the vendors won’t budge their price 😂and give them the OMG in Viet and walk off
Chợ Bến Thành nổi tiếng bán mắc mà anh, cũng dễ hiểu vì chi phí thuê mặt bằng ở đó rất cao nên họ phải bán ở mức giá đó
damn expensive af
Can you visit the art museum in Ho Chi Minh City? 🫶🏻
300k is the magic number
Quite close to uniqlo prices for tshirt, but not as good quality 😂

you should go shopping with a relative or local friend. otherwise, you'll get brutally duped by the vendors.
Watching this was painful. I need you to go back and HAGGLE.
Go to cho binh tay or cho an dong
That's interesting they think you're Japanese lol. I don't think I've ever had another Chinese or Asian person think I'm non-Chinese. Its mostly non-Asians and their friends start sweating when they confuse me for someone else XD If I could speak the language and knew my own ancestral culture better, I would've thought to move away as well. Good luck and best wishes, brother.
Love you ,
Don’t need to pretend to look like a foreigner lol they know even if you don’t talk to them.
Peter you don't eat blood jelly ?

Hey you were gonna go as a foreigner but you keep speaking Vietnamese…why?
Practice speaking
I went to Ben thanh market before with my friend. Maybe they Jack up the prices cause their monthly stall rent is also expensive. I didn’t buy anything though 🫠🫠🫠
