Shanghai Fake Market

[EBGTA]

Hi

I will fly to Shanghai next month, and peobably visit the fake market. Did anyone, has already visited it ? Any advices ?

cheers

To which one?
At Hongmei Road - at the Honqiao Pearl Center /// Hongmei Lu Road - Silk Center Hong Qiao
-- This is very close to "Laowei Street"

 

[EBGTA]

I am not sure Pearl center or AP Plaza

 

[Nur-Uhr]

OK
Pearl Center, they do not have the real good REPs directly in their stores.
Sometimes in the back of the shop / in their storeroom in the rear of the shop.
Very often they have the good REP products in the upper floors in the appartment floors direct in a small appartment.

They have also good REP watches / clothes / bags ... BUT not all of them offers these or have good products in stock.
You need mostly also a bit of trust and confidence since the several raids in China.

If you are looking for a special watch model from a maker you like - you should better buy at a TD here.
If you only want to take a look and take the chance to make a bargain ... you can have it there (but do not expect too much)

hello, if you don't know exactly what to look out for, then I would recommend... stay away

Once you're presented with 10 submariners and with the guy keep talking to you..... all that knowledge you memorised in your head (difference between v1 & v10, clean vs vsf vs gmf vs arf, etc) disappears from your head.

I wonder if China has dispensaries too.

Just order from TD and ask to ship to your hotel to your name. No worries about custom and the shipping time is 1-5 days depending where you are.

Ok so we assume all TD are then based in China ?

This the problem with noobs. Why ask us, why not ask TD? I am not the one going to ship you your watch.

Why don't you go ask TD, explain to them your situation that you will be in China and you want stuff shipped to your hotel, and ask for shipping time?

I am not a TD.
