Q: Do you find the shopping malls to be overpriced relative to the quality of the goods they sell?
It seems that the malls here in China overprice their goods as a means of capitalizing on this " It's expensive so I'll buy it and look cool attitude." Any thoughts as to why people don't valuate their purchases against their utility for the product being purchased?
most import items suc as channel perfume we bought 4 bottles in the us for around 90 american dollars the other day at the mall it was 4 times higher for the exact same bottle a pair of gucci sun glasses we purchased in america for aroung 500 dollars were 3 times higher in the local mall just a rip off here for brand names and a kia sportage suv here is 2 times higher around 20 g in the us and 42g here
Premade clothes (as opposed to clothes made by a tailor) and shoes in China are far more expensive and are far less in quality compared to clothes and shoes in America. You are better off saving your kuais and buying clothes and shoes in your homes country whenever you make a trip back or asking friends and family to send you clothes from back home every so often.
