| Bartering
is all part of the fun in Turkey, and the
locals expect it. Never accept the first
price you are given, as you'll probably
get it far far cheaper. They can
sometimes pester you to go in their
shops, but just be poite and say you are
going for a drink or something. They
easily take the hint. The above pictured shop is
"Cosmopolitan" (just under
Aloha, past Burger King). A lot of the "Designer
Stuff" is fake, and not that we're
condoning fakes, but the quality is
absolutely second to non. The shirts,
jeans, handbags etc... are of a very high
quaity. Imitation Dolce & Gabbana
shirts from £8? Gucci imitation handbags
made with real leather £20, it's in
almost every shop.
They do also have
DVDs for sale but a lot of these are
second rate copies. Always ask to watch
them before buying! They're about £2
each.
