However, some of them make up stories about the products they sell. One typical scheme is that, they post an outrage low price of some well known product, but when you ask, they answer is always out of stock. Then they persuade you to buy another one they claim to be even better. It ends up with you buy something cost a lot more than its worth. Other scheme, which was common, but the police actions have driven it down, is that 海味 store which sells things like sharkfin, 燕窝 and things like that. They post again outrage low price of 燕窝, you then buy it, they chop it up and ask you for a price 10 times more. You point to the sign, then you will realize the price is for 两， not for 斤. If you say you don't want it, a couple guys will round you up and tell you that you have to buy it since it is chopped.

Hong Kong, is just like any other big city, it is not a utopia, and there are many bad people there too.
