$30 Mumbai Market Hunt - did we pay too much? 🇮🇳
Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 жов 2024
- Today me and @betsythomps did our first-ever Mumbai market hunt! We decided to visit Mumabi's famous Chor Bazaar and spend $30 in local markets. We buy things like cricket jerseys, football jerseys, rings and much more. We try our best to bargain down the tourist prices, but you'll have to let us know how we do. For tourists, it's a bit more difficult to get a good price, so you have to have your wits about you in these Indian markets.
If you like fake market hunts in Mumbai, you'll love this :)

For an indian...but guyz did awesome job as a foreigner. ❤

It's our fundamental rights..😂😂😂
Ah no way 😅 we tried
Yes Bargain And loot the Poor's
@@Alex_99777 bro, you may be ambani's son but we are not. We are also not rich...so we can bargain, we have to🤣
what about the shop asking for 3000rs for two jersey, aren't they trying to cheat..?
@@Alex_99777 bargaining and looting is not the same you have the right to ask for any price they have the right to agree or not
There was smile on my face everytime she successfully bargains tho she paid lil much but her smile is priceless ❤
Haha im glad you smiled 😆 we had lots of fun
FUN FACT- The real name of "Chor Bazaar " was actually "Shor Bazaar", shor means noise because of the metal workshops there. But the Brits couldn't pronounce shor so it became chor.😅
Nice Save...
was waiting for this one
🙌🏼
Unreal vid 😊😮😮
🙌🏼
Have you guys visited Marine drive yet? Start at Marine drive opposite to Trident hotel and walk all the way to Girgaum chowpatty. Good food stalls on the beach.
Also, Bandra is another good area to explore.
If you want to do an activity, zero latency in Lower Parel is good.
Also, a good restaurant recommenadation is Burma Burma in the area you are staying in.
Great video 💪🏽🇮🇳🇮🇳
Thank you so much 😀
That’s a very good tactic of having a set budget and showing your wallet, that could be a good trick for future tourists to use!
Very true!
You guys rocked with the shopping! You both stuck to your budgets and haggled down the price. Well done! I recommend you guys take the open tourist bus to get a feel for the city and the sights. 😉 🇬🇧
We tried 😅
@@dunneytravels You did well 👍
You got a the Jerseys at a good price, especially the Arsenal jersey. Stay safe and enjoy your vacation
Thanks for letting me know 😊
That is a little bit expensive for the cricket shirt. Maybe 200-300 for locals
Thanks for the info
2 Nov cricket match between India vs srilanka in Mumbai.. India cricket jersey buying is awesome 😎
Its not about overpaid, its always choices what we make, Money is subjective, understand your desire & their needs gets fulfilled simultaneously 😊😊
Tips - These street vendors know that international tourists can pay 3-4 times than actual cost as they don't know local rates. They will always charge 4 times higher for international tourists you need to bargain 3 times lower than the price these vendors requested. Also never purchase from one place only explore more shops to get an idea about rates. bargaining is very common in India so do not hesitate :)
Thanks very much for the tips!! That very helpful 😊
Some shopping tips would be: Give an initial price that is 80% off the shopkeeper's ask price then try to settle to 70% the price.
Eg: if the shopkeeper says 1000, you counter with 200 (80% off), then 250 (75%) and final 300 (70%). If still he doesn't burge then act like you don't need it & start Leaving, they will call you back.
Thanks so much for the info, we'll definitely try your suggestion next time :)
@@dunneytravelshe’s given you the best advise bro, these local shopkeepers rip off foreign tourists like anything, be careful❤
I myself got the arsenal jersey for 750. You got it for a bargain!
Oh wow, thanks for letting me know! Maybe he let me do less on the arsenal shirt because the cricket shirt was cheaper 😊
Great vlog. Love the thumbnail too 😊
Thank you!! 😁
Whenever you are buying something never show the shopkeeper that you are desperate to have it. That’s why all of them settled for your price. Tell them a price much lower and make it hard for them to catch up with your price. That’s when you strike a good bargain. Anyways it’s a nice learning and experience for you both.
Thanks for the info 🙌🏼
That tshirt bargain was good. 1000 for both is decent
I agree!
Thankyou 😊😊
You can also ask locals around there for the price. They can help you gauge the value.
It should be 200 for the cap, t-shirt if it's good quality is around 400, bag should be around 300-500
Thanks for the info 🙌🏼
Loved it. Great afternoon shopping ❤
So glad!
Great vlog. Shopping looks unreal xx
It was 🙌🏼
I like your vlogs and specially science city Ahmedabad vlog was amazing
Thanks very much 😊❤️🇮🇳
You should visit fashion street in mumbai
They did not give foreigner price because its bargaining for us to mumbai
Phone case 150
Cap 150
But Its gets very expensive in tourist market and shop with glass door and ac.
Thanks very much for the info 😊
Nice to see.
Enjoy your trip.
Thanks my friend 🙌🏼
800 for that bag is okay. I paid similar too from there. Those days are over when u could get it for 500. Most of them wont go down with the price.
We thought this too 🙌🏼
Please going to the Panjab in golden temple
Watch some WC2023 India's matches it will boost ur channel 🇮🇳
We are going to a WC2023 match in Delhi 😊
@@dunneytravels enjoy 🍻
I suggest you to make video about India because it will help you to make a large amount of views.....many foreigners (youtubers) made video about India and they are now famous...you can see many UA-camrs around you.😊
good bargaining skills. Go to Colaba, you'll get some good stuff there.
Thanks very much 😊
Tshirt 150-200
Cap 60-150
Ring 20-50
Bag 250-300
Looking forward to more india content :)
More to come!
Unfortunately beth overpaid for the bag always quote three times less what they quoted that bag should not be more than 300 - 400 INR.
1000 Rs for a Gunners Shirt and India Shirt was correct . Not overpaid
Thanks my friend 🙌🏼
So expensive in Mumbai cricket shirt😮
I agree
Oh no! We tried 😅
You should start very low first dont keep a fix price of cap 300 - tshirt 500- case-400
Akways start low like 100 onwards mostly
Thanks for letting us know :)
Nice video. It's very difficult to bargain in Manchester or UK. It's possible in India . Lol
You know it 😅
You guys also should visit jammu and Kashmir to see heaven on earth.Waiting to see you there.
Thanks very much for the info 😊
the bag could have been 400-500 others were fairly charged just maybe 1 pound more.
Thanks for letting us know 😊
NIce to know you are a Gunner too ? Do we need to buy a striker after nketiah's hattrick
Yes COYG 😊 well Nketiah is really making a mark for himself isn’t he!
Toney or Osimhen would be a nice addition to the squad though
Always start with 100 or 200 for anything
Fun to shop on streets
It is! 🙌🏼
Bag also very expensive maybe 300-400
Oh no! Thanks the info 😅
You should take Miss Beth to a street barber hair trimming experience in Mumbai and also visit a salon giving oil head massage to her for a wonderful experience. It will be a relaxing experience for her.
you nearly got scammed on that jersey store, with that quality
you guys are a bit shy when it comes to price i guess, the initial prices that you quote are already very high that any shopkeeper would ready upon. but sad to see these shopkeepers keeps on asking high prices😔
🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳 Great Vlog
Thanks 😊
Brother cap only 200 price
😩😩😩
Start with half of half price they asked
U could have got 5-6 shirts of 1000/-
British looted India for more than 200 years and took more than £45 trillion of wealth from India, it's time for us to recover.😂
Although $50 will not be significant 😂
You will get silver toe ring at Jewellery store only
Thanks for the info! We will look 🙌🏼
Come to indore beautiful city in india
Good stuff see ide fold im a rubbish bargainer 😂
It’s definitely a skill 😅
400-500 t shirt price for both
Oh wow 😩😩
You could have gotten the phone cover for 100-200 they just triple and quadruple the price when they see non-indians..... Although you did great Happy travels 🥳😊
Pl visit BKC in mumbai.
That purse should cost around 500 max
Oh no 😅
Though still you guys played it well
Thankyou!!
Ring also 20-30 rupees
Thanks for letting me know 😊
I don't think you over paid much, maybe a couple of hundreds at best. These are basically the prices middle class Indians pay. Really enjoy your vlogs. Your wife/gf is a gem.
Thanks my friend 🙌🏼
Still you gave bit extra for both items ❤
Yes exactly, hopefully this helps the sellers and their families 😊
those caps are sold for 80-100 rupees... haha
Ouch 😩😩
its okay bargain better next time and also the phone cover is of not more than 220 bucks@@dunneytravels
I will tell u a trick to bargain... u just have to try 1-2 times then u have to pretend to leave the shop....and u get to negotiable price.😂
Except locals no one goes there.
That explains a lot
Chor Bazaar is quite something 😅
Yep 😂
bohot zyada paise lagadiye itne india me lag bhi sakte hai nhi
16:48 Obviously You Guys Overpaid For Everything 😅, one trick I can suggest is if you want to something for one budget in your mind then you have to say 100 or 200 less than what you want to pay , then slowly raise the bar .
You mentioned that you are going to Delhi. DO NOT be as free and innocent as you are in Mumbai. Delhi is a cesspool of scammers and very unsafe. Make sure the areas you are going to are tourist friendly. The safety difference between Delhi and Mumbai is as stark as night and day.
That’s very good advice. Thank you for warning them
Thanks for the info 🙌🏼
Remember if anyone seems to be nice or 'confident', they are NOT nice.
That cap costs around 100
Wow 😂😂
Thanks for letting me know :)
Good
Thanks 🙏🏼

Thanks we will check it out 😊
@@dunneytravels Ambani House Antillia
Max 500 for each that too is way more😂😂
😩😩😩
Don't like the way people are looking at you both worrys me take care love you both xx😮
❤️❤️
If an item is worth ₹ 500, then start bargainers with ₹ 100, only then because if item 500 h then his real price 200 hnd only
Good advice
We’ll try next time 😅
Hey guys!
Fab job bargaining as foreigners!
But unfortunately you'll paid double on everything :(
Jerseys - 300/350 max
Cap - 100/150 max
Purse - 350/400 max
Iphone Cover - 150-250 max
I think next time you should try and talk to some locals at a restaurant where you'll are grabbing a bite and ask them for the baselines of the regular prices. Or best, take a local along!
Bro it's not like they will become poor .
If you buy this same thing in their country there will be no bargaining 🤣
prize is also same or higher in their country that why they seem satisfied with prize tag.
We indian have Conllozied mindset for any foreigners we treat them like celebrity 🤡
Ohh $30 is quite cheap. Ideally it should be $50. Next time pay 50 Dollars.
Everyone else is saying we paid too much, it should be more like $20, not $30... and definitely not $50! haha
@@dunneytravels Ohh C'mon man. You are from a 'developed' country. Can certainly pay a 50 Dollar bill to an Indian street seller. Sorry. Just Kidding. You paid what it was worth. Safe Travels, Enjoy the Hospitality!
😊🇮🇳😊🇮🇳😊🇮🇳😊🇮🇳
👍🏽👍🏽
It's been 20 years for me in Mumbai and never did a thought crossed in my mind about visiting "Chor Bazar" and these guys land in Mumbai and end up in this shitty -abhorring place. What could be the motivation? When ever we have visited to foreign cities , we clearly kept away from the underbelly of those cities but these guys end up in all these places , like flies to the poop! But why ?
Honestly it’s just the curiosity! We don’t have markets like that at home so it’s interesting to see. For your info we didn’t really enjoy the visit much, neither did we feel very safe. But it’s still something we will appreciate experiencing 😊 Also weirdly if you type in tourist attractions on Google, the Chor Bazaar comes up! Not sure why though…
European r vry nice......❤
If you are going to buy some more stuff then I beg you please Google the price with - name of the product, India. You can deviate a bit depending on the city but wouldn't be ripped of. Please for God sake. It breaks my heart from far away. Watching it is so painful.
Thanks so much for the info. We will try this from now on 😊 it’s hard to haggle as a foreigner, sometimes these sellers would rather not even make the sale than to give us a goo local price…
@@dunneytravels Don't worry buddy. I am the same. The key is to be ready to walk away. Show some interest and start walking then they will definitely try to make a deal. There is a high possibility you will get the same material in another shop. I had been ripped off many times. Long ago I bought 5 DVDs for 50 each while a foreigner paid $50 for 2 right after me. I felt so stupid in my own country lol
I would recommend you to visit my beautiful country Pakistan 🇵🇰❤
One day 🙌🏼
its none of my business but i must ask you to be more aware of the type of people you are in the midst of
we indians do not take our families to such markets - you probably didnt see too many women or children or families but you ignored it
He still earned 4 times for that case🤑🤑😄
Wow!! 😅😂
Typical 😅
@@dunneytravels The trick is whatever they are charging, just ask them half price or little less than half😅. If they don't agree just act to walking away from them 😂😂
You guys paying to much please always bargain 1/2 price you guys r to soft
You loved Mumbai and hated Hyderabad? I am at a loss for words! 🤦🏻♂️
Haha Mumbai has been one of our most favourite stops so far 😊
@@dunneytravels Which is why it's even more baffling. Because Mumbai is a dumpier and slummier city than Hyderabad. Not to mention, you also picked all the wrongest places in Hyderabad to visit. Locals wouldn't even eat there. You should take the help of a local to guide you next time. Or research thoroughly beforehand.
Beaware n always bargain when you purchase anything from roadside shop. You over paid every thing.
Oh no 😅
Oh common u spend 10 pounds for that tshirts😂 they only worth 5 pounds. I know englands trying to play bazball in 50 overs format but u should be defensive with your money. Anyways have a safe trip mate❤
Hahaha thanks so much 😊❤️🇮🇳
You guys overpaid for everything 😂 that purse costs around 400
Wow 😂
Typical 😅
You guys are awful at bargaining.😂
We need to improve 😂😂
I think you erring much money from you tube thats why you pay extra money for thats shop lol.
We wish 😅
I just liked commented and watched this video twice to compensate for your loss. You guys are overspending as if its your wedding 🤣 If you just recorded this then your team is thrashing India in cricket at I write this.
Oh no 😅
You are paid to much .
😩😩😩
150 it's maximum for a mobile back cover
Not for an iphone one. 400 is not bad for a fake iphone cover.
You overpaid for everything, in India you have to do bargain for thing you are buying
We will know for next time 😅
So sad seeing them ripped off ...1k for those t-shirts!!!this made me lil angry
We know for next time now 😩😩
Stay safe from muslims specially, Avoid their areas , happy journey ❤
dont buy t shirts they are very expensive dont buy dont buy
he is looting you
Thank for letting us know
