‘CHINA HAUL’: EMPTY SUITCASES IN, PACKED SUITCASES OUT

Foreign visitors indulge in shopping spree for Chinese-made products as social media hashtag gains buzz

Her son, who was equally overwhelmed by what Chinese technology could achieve, decided to immediately place an order for the device. "I have never seen anything like this in the United Kingdom, or even in Europe," he said.
