Now selecting an appropriate Type for this Shop isn't quite easy: toys and games? Local craft? Hobbies? Food and drink? Boh, anyway having been around Asia quite a lot, I was used to see street vendors selling any kind of goods, but this was the first time I have seen viagra street vendors and, basing on their quantity it must be also a good business here, then I do not know if it is a coincidence or what, but I have not met any clothes vendor.

What to pay: No idea, didn't dare to ask the price.
