In order to enjoy your visit and make sure that you buy authentic and high quality products, you can request your Chinese friends to accompany you or if not ask for some tips about the items that you are interested to buy and how much are the standard or reasonable prices. 

It is also advisable to bring magnifying glass to look at the items closely.

During my visit, I inquired for the same item from different sellers and they gave me different prices. It is a must that you should canvass first and look closely at the quality of the items before buying. It is very big market so there are plenty of same items from different sellers for you choose from. You should have adequate time to be able to devote considerable period to canvass and choose carefully.

If you have vacant time, come during weekdays and ordinary days because the market is very crowded during weekends and holidays.

ENJOY YOUR JOURNEY AND SHOPPING!
