Inside Horizon Plaza:

Discount: 30% to 80% off throughout the years.
Actual situation in there: most of the items are priced around $500-$2000 HKD. If this range is suitable for your budget you will have good hunting there. There are sufficient fittings and plenty of spaces inside (enough for couples to go try together!) Occaionally there are damaged items going down as low as 90% off, but rarely happens. I have bought a D&G Cardigan for $500 HKD, only with a small hole on the sleeves >;-D

Discount: Outlet discounted price (usually 30% off retail) plus 10% -30% extra discount. Selected items on 80% and 90% off. There is also an orange dot which places items from range of $200-$500 HKD (around 90% off).
Actual situation in there: Occupy entire 25/f floor with almost everything from shoes, accesories, hangbags to stationaries and furnitures. Discounts are rather little unless items are on 80%-90% off. Need quite a bit of luck to get good items with good price. Selections are geared towards more mature age group. The price range here are really huge, from couple hundred dollar a T-shirt to 5 or 6 digit price tag of Viscunz sweater and Alligator brief case. Since the store is super big, you get quite a bit of privacy when you are looking around. They restock quite often, almost every weeks as the workers told me. Good stuffs are gone really fast here, buy it once you see and of course if it's within your budget. You won't see the same stuff next time you come back.

ah... sleepy, contiues later with 21/f - Joyce, 22/f Imagenex, fairton, pompei, bluebell, 26/f diesel, Polo Ralph Lauren, Aldo, Armani Outlet, Replay, Club Monaco, Marni, Max Mara Group and many more...
