yomovo’s Tips:
>> The mementos of hotel or shop are more expensive than that of the stalls. However if you buy them with the peddlers, first of all you should know how to haggle with them. In Yalong Bay Square there is a seashell market where the peddlers will show you many kinds of seashell which are very expensive.
>> If you walk along the beaches in Sanya, you may see lots of women selling cheap pearl and crystal, which are all fake, and not value. If you don't want to buy anything, leave them as far as possible or refuse them definitely at the very beginning. But if you are fond of some, you'd better learn how to cut the price from the tenth first and never give the final price higher than the quarter of total price.
>> and rub them lightly each other, if it is not smooth, that shows it’s the real and natural pearl. The man-made pearl is harmful to your skin; you’d better not wear it even if it’s cheaper.
>> Generally, the handiwork of coconut is sold in stationary stalls. You can go to the city centre to select some.
>> Do not buy the coral or turtle. They are strictly prohibited to sell.
