It's worth checking out if you've never been to HKG before. Everything is fast and efficient. The only hiccup might be the immigration lines which can back up depending on the time of day.
There is no street shopping near Kowloon AEX station.

The other option is take S1 bus (HK$3.5) to the near by Tung Chung City Gate (about 20-25 min), this is the last Metro stop.

Really?
It took you 45 minutes to clear immigration at HKG arrival? What is your Interpol record like? How was the cavity search?
