Yunnan shopping trap

Yunnan's tourism resources are really good, but with more and more business opportunities, the market system has not been standardized, which has led to many problems. I have been to Yunnan now, and 8 out of 10 people will complain, and scandals will follow. Bian Xiao sorted out Yunnan's favorite pits. Let's learn from Bian Xiao.

1, placer gold mine

The gold content of placer gold is very low, but the shopping guide will mislead tourists, saying that placer gold is 18K gold, and the gold content of 18K gold is at least 75%, while the purity of placer gold is far from the standard of 18K gold.

2, jade, Huang Longyu, gold inlaid jade

Gold and jade are priceless. Because it is very difficult to identify jade, the price difference between good jade and bad jade is huge, and jade is more of a culture. Without the support of culture, jade may really be just a stone.

Merchants will promote that jadeite can preserve and increase value and is an investment product. Just want to say, do tourists know jade? Most tourists know nothing about jade. It is because tourists don't understand that they will be slaughtered. Tourists understand, what do businesses earn?

The price of jade is difficult to estimate. A piece of jade with a price tag of 1 00000 may only be worth1yuan. If you are not an insider, don't buy it rashly. Don't get involved if you don't understand, or you will only be killed.

3. Avoid conflicting multiple access

Originally from South America, it is a common food. It was introduced to China for cultivation in 2002, but it has become an expensive "medicine" in Yunnan. According to the national regulations, maca is a food, and its medicinal value cannot be publicized. Eating too much will also have side effects; In the propaganda of unscrupulous merchants, Maca has become a panacea for all diseases. In particular, saying that "men eat woman can't stand it, women can't stand eating men, and men and women can't stand eating beds" is simply nonsense and a scam. The internal reason is that unscrupulous merchants add Viagra powder to Maca.

4. Pu 'er tea and alpine tea

Like jade, the price of tea is very confusing and difficult to identify. The quality of tea mainly depends on its "taste". Tea tastes good and bad, with endless aftertaste. It's too subjective and arbitrary. Water quality, stoves, weather and even mood can all feel the taste of tea. The price of tea is determined by these illusory factors. Can the price not be chaotic? Can ordinary people taste the quality of tea, high or low?

The price of tea depends on the seller's mouth. Sell if your mouth is not good, and the price is high; If you don't know anything about tea, don't buy it indiscriminately. If you want to buy it, it is safer to buy a few yuan a catty of tea, or to go to a large chain store in the country to clearly mark the price. Otherwise, tea is also a shopping pit, waiting for you to jump.

5. Dendrobium candidum

Dendrobium candidum is known as "the first of the nine immortals in China", and the market price is chaotic, with different prices and uneven quality. Do you know what wild species are and what cultivated species are? The merchant said it was wild. Do you believe it? Don't buy blindly if you don't understand, or you will still be slaughtered.

6. Tibetan medicine

Tibetan medicine is an important part of Chinese medicine. Tibetan medicine, like Chinese medicine, has a very mysterious and unique medicinal value. However, Chinese medicine has always been criticized, because the theory is not as rigorous as western medicine, mainly relying on experience accumulation. Merchants promote Tibetan medicine for anti-cancer, anti-hypertension and treatment of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. The price of the same medicine in the scenic spot is x times higher than that in ordinary pharmacies.

7. Silver ornaments

Silver ions in Yunnan Naxi, Dai, Tibetan and silverware do have bactericidal effect, but don't be superstitious about silverware of ethnic minorities. The silverware of ethnic minorities contains very little silver, and the main cost is copper rather than silver. The market price of Baiyin is about 5 yuan/gram, and the price of tourist attractions is n times higher than the market.

8.spirulina

Spirulina has health care function. As a conventional health care product, it is not as mysterious as the shopping guide said, and the price is relatively stable. But don't buy it in shopping spots and scenic spots. The price is 6-7 times higher than the market price.

Saffron

Also known as crocus and saffron; Saffron is expensive and can be divided into super, first and second grades. There is a huge difference in prices at different levels. Unscrupulous merchants often impersonate saffron, use saffron as saffron, and sell saffron with shredded radish or other red flowers as saffron. If you don't know the appraisal, please don't buy it easily

/kloc-0 0. Essential oil

Essential oils are also worth a penny. Different brands, different processes, different raw materials and different places of origin have different purities and prices. Moreover, many kinds of synthetic essential oils on the market are fake natural essential oils, so be careful before shopping.

1 1. Xishuangbanna fruit

Tourists should pay attention to Xishuangbanna. Fruit vendors only cheat foreign tourists, so they may "cheat" on the fruits they sell, and shoddy is the most common means. Others, such as white melons painted as red melons and exotic fruits with strange names, are actually watermelons, cantaloupes and dyed melons with painted skins. This is really a lie. If you want to buy fruit, remember to go to a regular supermarket or a fruit franchise store. The mobile fruit stand on the street is not reliable!

12. Chocolate and coffee

Don't think these little things are insignificant. Chocolate and coffee are also common shopping spots in tourism, and there is a huge difference between expensive and cheap. I want to remind you which brand of chocolate and coffee you bought, imported or made in China? Many brands of chocolate and coffee are mixed together, and the profit is very high.

In fact, the more you know, the more you really think deeply. Tourism is a two-way win-win situation. Why is it so terrible now? When consumers' rights and interests are damaged, they can only swallow their words? It is said that the market system is chaotic, market supervision is not in place, and the road to perfection in the future is long. Can we bite our teeth and swallow them every time?
