Buyer tips
- Come between 7:00 and 9:00 — by 11:00 the good styles are sold out and the lifts are packed.
- Ask 'how do I take this?' and 'how many pieces minimum?' — never ask 'how much is this?', that is the retail question.
- There are no fitting rooms on the cheap floors: check seams, lining and zip quality by hand.
- Most booths speak no English and prefer cash or WeChat Pay; bring small notes and your passport-sized order list.
- Year-end (January) is clearance season: stock lots drop to a third of the normal price.
