Dodgy People: Kuala Lumpur - China town : Pushy sellers!
  • Tip Rating: [Not enough ratings yet]
  • I would suggest one avoid visiting the China Town/ Market area with valuables such as original Rolex watches or expensive camera gear.
    My wife and I were just strolling around, looking at the stuff (majority fakes). We made sure not to make too much contact because that would lead to excessive attention from the seller. Any how, apparently one of my "standing over goods with hands folded behind my back" lured one of the sellers in. He kept asking me what color I wanted the Rolex in, which size and so on. I replied with a smile that I was just looking. H e then grabbed my arm (not in an agressive way) and asked me how much I paid for my watch. I said a thousand ringitt (about 300$ but the watch actually cost $3,000 - Tag Heuer Carrera) and explained that it was a "quality fake", he then tested my statement by flicking the cronograph on. He then knew I was lying and insisted it was real which I kept denying till he offered me 3,000 ringitt for it. He knew it was original because I declined a 300% profit.
