Shanghai News 5: Markets around Shanghai (Part 2)

Dongtai Lu:
This market is near Dongtai Lu (the antiquity market)!
You can find lots of things funny and beautiful at the same time.
Do not forget to negotiate the price! Negotiation is a game here and it is really funny.
It is impossible to know the real price of something in China!
That is why the best way to buy something is to decide before what is the price you want to pay (for example, I want to pay 0,5Y for a postcard and no more: negotiate until the price you want is achieved)!
And after let's play: laugh, let them think you are leaving, prance…
Most of the time, you will buy something you just don't care about but it is so funny!! At the same time, it is also boring to negotiate all the time (tiring) and to have the impression of getting ripped most of the time!
