really genuine stuff or not ? genuine stuff normally no problem with quality, and some even carry lifetime warranty[/quote]Its genuine alright but I wouldnt go all the way there frm TST cos dont like the distance besides, the things I want to buy are at TST... can drop the purchases off at the hotel and have tea and move on again free hand.moonee:
[quote=\"micollh\"]actually, HK many places have branded .. opposire kowloon hotel is channel.. along the tsim sha sui stree can find coach, long champ.. blahh.. so no need purposely go to one place.. but price wise i din check as i dun even have time for shopping
Yup, I normally stay at TST and am familiar with the shops there, They dont hv GST 7 p/c so the branded can come to 10 to 20 p/c cheaper than in spore depending on the brand and exchage rate.
Citigate sells outruns n past season goods at affordable prices but got to check on the workmanship for some brands.
I prefer buying my cosmetics there cos its a lot more cheaper than here, I think the cosmetics at the duty free in spore are not all that cheap in comparison to the HK duty free too. -

I will be staying within walking distance from Yau Ma Tei station. Already planned to walk \"up and down\" Nathan Road, the moment I unload my luggage !
Don't 4get to venture into Granville Rd. Lots of factory outlets but some don't hv changing room. I saw pple bringing measuring tapes & their own clothes to compare against the Old Navy etc. :salute:
Some shops hv a small store front but spiral upwards onto 2nd-5th levels so lots of exercising! I love the shoes shops there, unique & cheap.
More shopping ideas :evil: :

I got no issues with the quality of the stuff at Citygate. All genuine. They are not defective items. The items belong to past seasons. For Coach, not as cheap as US factory outlets. Kate Spade, don't bother. Quite cheap for Giordano but got to buy in bulk as in at least 4 - 5pcs. As in my earlier post, bring a small trolley bag to pack in your shopping if you need to take MTR back to TST area.
Is the only place to get branded stuff at Citygate? I remember that I went to a building with lots of shops that sell branded at a discount. Cun remember where... -

ksparents, i am back this morning.
FYI, weather has been hot everyday (like SG!) except for yesterday which rain in the afternoon (in disneyland.argh!) which is still like SG.
So if weather continues like this, no need to worry about being too cold. The only time I feel cold is when I was waiting for the symphony of lights. Big Buddha, Ocean Park all not cold.
For those with time to spare, can consider the dolphin watch. I went and managed to see pink dolphins! Here is one photo for sharing, mostly we take videos and I am having problem uploading to youtube.
