Shopping in a Fake Market in CHINA 🇨🇳 (GHOST TOWN?)
This is an infamous market for buying designer replicas in Shanghai, and it used to be super busy, I hear. While it's not as busy as before, it's still got some good stuff and good deals. I'm not the best at bargaining but I am getting better. Let me know what you think of the prices.

In fact we Chinese people don't go to these fake markets anymore. We use Taobao or pdd to shop online instead cause the bargain is really a waste of time and annoying.e.g. for the first jersey he gave a price at 300yuan, after a long bargain u bought it with 120 yuan.I searched it on taobao the price is about 50 yuan. Decades before we had no choice but to shop at these market, now these stores are hard to survive so they tried to sell at a higher price to those don't shop online, and fewer people will go shopping there,it's a vicious circle.

I always wondered there s never any locals shopping in these places 😂. It now makes sense. I moved to Shanghai recently and debated if I should visit this place. It seems like most of the sales people get the same English training. “Hello my friend”…..”My best price”

I think that fake market in technology museum station is a popular spot in foreigner tourists. Local people don’t do shopping there, it has much less business than other places in Shanghai. I am surprised it is still there.

The reason you can see that the quality of these "fakes" is very good is because they are not fakes in a sense. Many big western brands asked Chinese factories to do processing, so those Chinese factories have formal production processes and assembly lines. These fakes may be exactly the same as the originals, the only difference is that they are not officially authorized, because they may be secretly produced, or these factories continue to produce when those companies leave.

In fact, online shopping in China can get lower prices than this because online stores save the cost of renting a store. In addition, the competition among online stores is more intense, and you can get the lowest price without bargaining.
OMG, bro, that's a deep trip. I've never been such place yet. You're good at bargain than so much people including me. So online shopping saves our life.😂
The reason Chinese merchants are successful is they will go down in price to even a penny's profit whereas western merchants want 2000%-8000% profits ! A penny profit is a penny more then before ! I remember when we were buying HDMI and USB cables from China, the manufacturer asked for $0.17cad for a 3ft cable and our Canadian buyers were haggling them for $0.12cad for 100,000 quantities. The same HDMI cables were sold at Best Buy and Future Shop for $79.99cad, this is the reason why none of Biden's tariffs and sanctions will ever work because western businessmen want easy and large profits for doing nothing !

You always go to some special places in Shanghai, which is very interesting. I like your videos very much. 😊😊 Nowadays, almost all Chinese people shop online, which is more convenient and cheaper. There is almost no business in this offline market. And you are really good at bargaining. I have lived in China for more than 20 years and have never bargained.😂

As a Chinese, I want to provide some information to help tourists - most of the people who come here to shop are foreigners, and the prices here are relatively expensive compared to other places China. But the good things is that many shop owners can speak English, shopping here you should compare the price of your own country just like this guy. Cause even if its a little expensive for China, the overall price in China will be lower than in some countries. You can enjoy bargaining here, cut the price in half!!!

It's interesting, in fact, many fake factories are production lines for real brands, so there is not much difference in quality, more fake goods in China in the past, these years the industry has upgraded, the mainstream is already the original brand, such a market has been very few. But it's really interesting to visit places like this as a foreigner.
About shopping in China, the products can be classified into two types. For name-brand products, it's easier to buy false ones in online shops than physics shops. For domestic-brand counterparts, it's convenient to buy them online. However, to maintain the physical shops, some companies will only sell some parts of products in physical shops. These products have better quality and more expensive prices because of the cost of rental of shop and utility fees. Those shops you saw might also sell products online. Before the coming of online shops, we also buy false-brand products like you. Nowadays, we get more famous domestic brand products which also have good quality. It's challenging to judge whether online shopping is better or not. It just depends on your budget and needs.

Hi, what's your camera?
I estimate that T-shirt is probably around five to six dollars. However, the cheapest power banks produced in large factories in China are around ten dollars, those of poor quality are about six dollars, and I wouldn't dare to connect an even cheaper power bank to my phone.
As a local it is so ironic some of these unknown 'fake' shop only has English billboards now and they speak good English...implicates the target customers lol.
I don't like to bargain. Chinese people like to shop online, so there are no people in physical stores
The local people doesn’t go to fake market, the prices are all arbitrary set.

They have to pay rent, and can't sell too cheap, hard to survive. You guys at least let them earn for a bit, the exchange rate is nothing for you guys just for a cup of Starbucks coffee.

They are afraid of being caught on camera out of the fear of any footage could be used against them by the state market regulation bureau. Could be sentenced to life in worst circumstances
Most of these shops also have online stores on TaoBao, AliExpress, eBay and Amazon even. Why waste a good opportunity not to have a retail outlet that serves as office space and warehouse space !

i dunno where the hell u gonna find powerbanks for less than $10 lol even a tiny 5000 mah cheap generic made in china brands..anything below $10 usd the quality has to be really sus....unless its second hand used or something i mean there is a physical limitation to how cheap things can be, below a certain point, its more than certain to be fake, and i dont mean "fake" fake, i mean really really fake like its not real lithium ion batteries, but made of energizer nickle cad double aa batteries scotch taped to a pcb or something. if someone offers u a WIRELESS charger for $7.82,i would probably run the hell away......i mean forget about even cheap chinese made lithium ion batteries.....for a wireless charger to be only $7 usd they have to be using duracell batteries or something. and not even real ones probably fake ones that run out of charge in like 3 mins. sometimes its not about trying to save a few dollars with ur aggressive bargaining kinda stupid if u ask me....but what the hell exactly are u buying? when i look at power banks on aliexpress i cannot help but blanche even as a chinese myself, there is absolutely no rules or regulations to what u can do, u are allowed to say anything and present anything as the truth, its almost like the management of aliexpress doesnt care and the CCP government doesnt care what is going on either, its almost like lieing is seen as a norm in China society and duplicity is not only encouraged but a fact of life.....wtf???there is absolutely no controls over anything, the government doesnt even bother to regulate or bring some of these things which are beyond ludicrous to how is china a confucian society when they barely have a shred of conciense or morality and are even proud of it? how does china even function as a society at this point without someone trying to sabotage or duping someone
