    Are this malls too? Some of the malls overprice their products. Street vendors are on the top list, I suggest.

    I live in São Paulo and there are many excellent Malls, but in fact street shops are less expensive than malls.

    Mall rents are soaring high, that's why they slightly overprice their products. And besides that, You can easily find everything or anything in Malls.

    Yes, I agree to everyone here, the costs to maintain a store into a mall are very high, but the quality of the products is the best. In addition, you don´t need to walk over lots of places in order to find the best quality.

    i don't agree with you people. every one should go to the malls to get an idea to know about the current train of style and fashion. not to buy products then they should look for that kind of products in local market or the street vendor shops.
    i am quite sure that most of the things in the malls, can be easily found in the local market. cause they shop from the same whole-sell shops.

    But please have in mind that the street shops usually don´t offer high quality than the malls. The clothes look like similar, but the quality is underground.

    Many clothes are more expensive in the malls, due to the high quantity of excellent wires in the confection, and the best know how used in the confection.

    The most strong wires in the confecrio, the most quality has and thus more expensive.

    I you go to the Bras neighborhood in Sao Paulo, you can find venders
    selling handbags and shoulder bags that have been sewn together from
    denim fabric. They are very affordable! This is just one example of the stuff you
    can find on the street as opposed to paying the outrageous inflated prices that the
    big corporate owned malls charge. Take advantage of it.

    Everyone has a point. It really depends on the preference of the shopper. But if you want to have convenience then I think you should visit the mall. But if you want to get that item on cheaper price, then have your shopping in the street..
