Go to on holiday to China, Turkey, virtually any tourist destination, you'll soon find how common markets for knock of goods and clothes are. As was our experience on our last trip to Turkey, specifically to visit the giant open air market at Fethiye where virtually every good was on show at knock down prices, this even before we attempted to negotiate the price down.

In this video we buy and test a Beats headphone for £15 (UK price £120), and a Karaoke Mike for £10 (£50 UK price). Of course we tested to make sure they worked at the time of purchase which they did, but are they the same, similar and most importantly do they LAST! Do they still work several months later, find out as we answer the question do you actually save money by buying knock off goods or not.

As for Fethiye Market, It's huge! Vibrant, bustling with variety, Turkish culture in action with plenty of bargains to be had if your upto the haggling challenge. It's an experience in its out right and FREE, apart from the shopping. You get to see a side of the world that you don't usually see, full of tourists from all over the world of all types and ages, a true melting pot.

The market sells virtually everything under the sun, food, fruit, sweets, electronics, bags, all sorts of bags, trinkets, shoes, jewellery and clothes, tons of clothes, from the mainstay for tourists t-shirt's tons and tons of t-shirts to the local traditional garments.

The Tuesday market opens at 9am and closes at sunset and is open all year round! If your thinking of going there this year then arrive early because the market really is huge, your going to need a good 6 hours and even then you won't see everything!
