Shopping:
-
-The size of shirts are not the same than in Europe or USA. The same T-shirt which is XL in Europe is L in the US and XXL in China.
-
-The places where you can buy XXL sizes are very rear.
-
-Tailor made shirts are pretty inexpensive and have a very good quality.
-
-If you see a big brand name on cloth, be suspicious.
-
-negotiations are part of the deal in the most shops but not in expensive malls
-
-the harder you negotiate the more you will be admired by the salesperson .
-
-what ever the salesmen say after the deal, they still ripped you off.
-
-you never pay in the shop, there are pay stations on every floor of the mall.
