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.
No need to go to Hong Kong for that experince, I have done that more then once in NYC. There is also the mobile van/truck store as well.
