What should I pay attention to when traveling to Japan? Be careful to fall into the pit.

Is there anything else to pay attention to? The only thing to note is that when you are shopping, you will come across a duty-free shop opened by a Chinese. In Japan, shopping is usually like this, such as electrical appliances, Du Baxi or big cameras, cosmetics, Matsumoto Ito. Not only are many passports used in these shops tax-free, but UnionPay also offers discounts, and so on. Remember not to go to some nameless gates with the words duty-free shop. The salespeople in it are all from China. When they come up, they ask, What do you want to buy? Shopping. These stores are indeed tax-free, but the prices of goods in their stores are generally higher than those in other regular stores. Is to kill those. No, I don't know the price.

See fellow villagers, cheat you not to discuss. Now that we are outside, the fellow villagers are the liars' favorite people. Especially when traveling abroad, there are many tourists visiting Japan in recent years. Although there are few fakes, there are still some. Especially the more popular scenic spots, the level of slaughtering customers is not much different from that in China. Due to frequent cost incidents in Japan, high-quality goods have to be questioned. Then the tourism culture of this issue will be analyzed for you.

1. Beware of counterfeit duty-free shops. There are many so-called duty-free shops in Tokyo, and tour groups often go there. You know, some of them are from Taiwan Province Province or Chinese mainland. The things sold in it will be very expensive, and there may be some fakes. Tokyo shopping malls can be duty-free as long as they buy duty-free goods above 1080. There is no such thing as a duty-free shop. Laox used to be an old Japanese electrical appliance store, but now it is owned by Suning, specializing in tourism business.

2. Fakes haunt Amiheng Street in Ueno. Note that there are fakes in Amiheng Street in Ueno, especially watches. Fortunately, Japanese fakes are obviously fake prices. In addition, second-hand brand-name shops in Japan may have fake brands if they are relatively small.

Don't buy souvenirs in Akihabara. Don't expect too much from Akihabara's souvenirs. There are many foreign tourists in Akihabara, and the classic souvenirs have been sold out. The rest are generally newly launched or unsalable products. Otaku must be mentally prepared.

Japanese and American manufacturing industries are in doubt. Forgery is not allowed in Japan. Once discovered, the punishment is very serious. However, there are also so-called Japanese-made products that use loopholes to deceive the people of China. The package says MadeinJapan. Buy it home and check it online. Either there is no such company at all, or it is not made in Japan. Doing your homework in advance can avoid unnecessary waste.

Not all duty-free shops are cheap, either duty-free or cheap. Things in duty-free shops are often more expensive, and the same things will be cheaper in big supermarkets or member stores that are not duty-free. If you add a discount, it is more cost-effective than tax exemption. For example, biccamera electric appliance store buys 8% duty-free games, and game store members get 20% discount. The price of the same thing varies greatly in different stores.

6. swipe your card. Pay attention to unionpay or visa. UnionPay can be used in many places in Japan now, but people in China must pay attention when using it: you must show the logo of UnionPay to the salesperson, and then you need to enter the password. There is a real and painful netizen experience: I told the Japanese salesgirl Xiao MM that I would pay UnionPay. People don't know anything about me, so they still have to meet, say hello and get me a visa. At that time, I entered the password without thinking, and signed it directly. It's a pity to go back to China to see the bill!

Please note that there are some black tour guides in Japan. Most of them are from Chinese mainland, Hongkong and Taiwan Province Province, and some are from the mainland. Most of them have no tour guide qualification, only received short-term escort training, and then rushed to work. Most of them will fool you into buying things. For example, the prices in all parts of Japan are similar, which are set by the Tourism Bureau. It doesn't matter where you buy things, so you don't have to go to any store to buy them. Don, I can't believe it.

8. Don't shop around and lose money. In various shops in Japan, the same commodity price is not as ubiquitous as ink.

9. Cheap cosmeceuticals, shopping in the popular business districts of alleys, often do not go to the cosmeceuticals in front of the station. The contents will be more expensive or there will be basically no discount. Walking into the alley at the fork in the road, the things in the drugstore will be cheaper or discounted (pharmacies are everywhere). If you go further, you will meet more and fewer people.
