Agree with Carsten. Depending on what you buy at the market I fould I ended up paying about 25% of the asking price. One childrens GAP turtleneck I wanted was first quoted at RMB 120. In the end I bought 2 for 60 RMB.

Walking away from the shop also works. Make an offer and if they do not like it just walk away. If they really want to sell it to you they will call you back. If they don't, at least you probably know that your price was too low. Good info for your next try at another shop.

By the way, the LV bag would not have come from HK. Just about nothing is made in HK any more. It most likely would have been made in China.
