The Night Market has okay fakes but the Ladies Market near Mong Kok had fabulous finds. Like everywhere you have to know what to look for regarding quality but I have not been disappointed. Some vendors put out catalogs of the real items and then fetch what you are interested in. I have even been taken back to the "private stores" (usually an apartment hidden down a dark alley and up flights of stairs) where it was like knock-off heaven! Was I scared at first sure, but when you enter the vault filled with bags, watches, etc. with well-heeled southern belles rummaging through the LV and Prada, it all feels okay, LOL! I have the "business card" of knock-off specialist I deal with, PM me if you want the information. Enjoy your trip.
