    I haven't been back in VN for a long time. The last time I was there I didn't mine paying a little bit over the "regular" price for cheap stuff but if I want something expensive then I asked my local relatives to find and buy it for me.

    You don't think it's better to go to Saigon square? I think there are more choices and it's a little cheaper.

  • @markbloem5312
    @markbloem5312 Před rokem +6

    On the Rolexes there’s about three or four different grades of quality. So the bottom level of quality yeah they used to be really cheap but the top level of quality they don’t keep in the show cases. The lower quality watches are in the showcases. The lower the price the quality.

    Is Ben Thanh or Saigon Square best for shopping for LV or Dior for good quality? Unless you are aware if a particular store that has the best quality? ❤

    Agree with the sneakers, the fake ones tend to be tighter than the real one, at least the Nike ones. The fake New Balance's and most running shoes are a pretty good deal though.

    HA Tam money exchange is better than Mai Van because Mai Van has a tendency to give smaller notes that are dirty or slightly more worn, but never had that issue with Ha Tam. Also if you ever want to find the best place and a good bargain in S.E.A then follow the Koreans, they're the smart ones when it comes to that sort of thing. I am not joking , they travel quite a lot & they're pretty savvy travelers in the region.

    What is the actual quality of the fake Rolex? The one in Korea were complete shit. My guess is they come from the same place.

  • @cookingwithadamkahnandlixu2718

    Same thing in Malaysia. Vendors didn’t want to be on camera. My guess, and obviously just a guess is they’re beginning to get in trouble.
    My follow up guess is in 5-10 years they won’t be able to sell a lot of it

      Yeah, basically its the same to worse quality than what a plain 100% cotton t-shirt will be from a UK supermarket. £3-£4 / 90-120k dong, as the vid suggests.

    At places Chợ BT I generally assume a 500% markup. So whatever price they ask, assume it's actually worth 1/5 of that. You might be able to talk them down to 2/5 of the cost, but no lower, because they probably lose face if they can't price gouge the foreigner a little bit. Bear in mind, also, they're getting gouged themselves by the landlord.

      I believe you mate. Southeast Asian coach roaches, especially those in Vietnam, can be as long as our middle fingers. Btw, there aren’t just roaches, there’s also rats running around at night. I’d rather spend more $$ and eat at legit restaurants.
