Very inciteful. That was exactly our experience, first day shopping sporting our sunstarved hides we were mobbed and were easy marks .
A couple days in the sun and we were much more easily able to shop. I actually paid 50000rp for a baseball hat that first day to keep the sun off my balding head. The're probably still talking about that score. Despite being ripped off and having the locals enjoy it at my expense, I don't mind a bit. What was pocket change for me hopefully made for a really good day for a person who needed a good day.
