Cool vid and I liked how you gave stuff away or paid for local services, every payday I'm gonna make it a goal to give you a fiver to help. Really want to know how that cobra massage oil tasted
Thanks so much man, really appreciate the support, just breaking even at the moment so everything helps. Down the track I’ll be offering some additional content or something for people who help out! No idea lol, but someone left a comment saying it was the worst they have ever had so glad I didn’t try 😂
Thank you for providing good content and entertainment. You look good enough to flirt with the female vendors. There are many good stories to be told if you flirt and joke around.
The 2 ladies in the alley were comedy. The younger one thought you wanted them to make the coffee for you 😂. The next guy you gave the hat and shirt to thought you wanted him to model the clothes you just bought 😅. Vietnamese people are some of the friendliest welcoming people you can meet. That guy grilling the meat woulda invited you to eat with him and woulda called all his friends and family over to meet you.
Hi Marco this was really relaxing content…..it was good to watch you shop for some bargains…..the shirt you had on & the 1 you got made were beautiful….safe travels ❤
More solid content. You are a natural presenter. You almost ticked every box....you were kind to the locals, were an aussie rascal, went some places others probably wouldnt go but you were missing one thing that makes the viral content - the unicorn, the black swan event. The thing you cannot predict and cannot script. Sometimes the locals are the key. Keep looking for it. It will come to you. P.S that cobra rice wine is phucking rank i gave a bottle away when i was in cambodia, i can still taste it now. Try a dripping trung Nguyen iced coffee if you are still in vietnam with condensed milk, they are pure crack 😂❤❤
# 4 Watches - Thirty years ago, playing basketball with my 8 yr old son and one of his friends, I got my watch band snagged and broken. I put it in my pocket for a couple months, finally took the band off and just had the face. Lost it ! Went for several years with no watch, didn't really need one. When I retired from the U.S. Post Office I did get a watch from my supervisor - nice but in the 25 years since I got it, never wore it even once. It sits on a shelf. My wife got me an Invicta on a cruise line tour, wore it twice, it is in its box in a drawer. Everyone has a cell phone, why do you need a watch too.?
That’s how I get too! They are more or a collectors item or to put nicely on the shelf, I have tried wearing watches all my life but I guess I’m just not a watch man 🤷🏽
Great episode! Very fun seeing all this going on. I must admit you got more ball than I do for the leopard shirt. Friends and family would have a fun day picking on me for that. Shit coffee. yeah I'd try it but it don't sound very appealing. Did you like it? Im looking forward to this series...going to be a good one!
Haha yeah mate that’s why I got it, my party shirt, conversation starter! The coffee was really good actually, shame I gave it away but I didn’t have any more room
Marco...... The Caps shop owner is honest who sell you the right price and the Coffee shop owner is good man who invited you some coffee mean he realized how to promotion himself. Hope you enjoy and have a good trip in Saigon Vietnam.
the tshirt was expensive. They sell for $2 to locals. The ladies in the fake market can be very rude if you suggest a reasonable, lower price. Tip: If she's shouting out "sir!sir!", at that age, she really wants to make the sale.
# 3 the sales folks try so hard to make it sound like you are taking the food right off their table. They are almost in tears. You want to see tears, my wife would hide me around a corner and go bargain for something and when she has her price, she would bring me to see what she got. When the clerk sees a foreigner her look could kill.
Depends on the item, but I would say approx 1/4 of the first price they give you … but some vendors are just honest straight up, some want to play games and say a ridiculous price up front 😂
I am a Vietnamese, I live in Vietnam. You bargain better than me. I don't dare to bargain like you, I just only bargain around 50 precent compare to the cost the gave. And after that I realized that I bought at a very high price. Some of sellers in Ben Thanh Market they are so rude, some are nice, but I am so lazy to bargain so I never want to buy there.
husband speaking age 80 Mr. Marco - my wife bargains for everything that is possible. At first it really embarrassed me. What are you doing ? Then i learned to just step aside and let her do her thing. Some places look fwd to the challenge. I am not sure I understand everyone using the calculator to show a price unless they get so many folks who don't speak well enough to communicate that it is just easy to show the price. ? maybe.
Haha it is like that at the start, but totally just their culture, they love it, even though they pretend to be sad at the price they want 😂 Calculator so they don’t have to feel initial confrontation and be clear? I’m not sure
Hiya Marco, you following me😂 i got some sandals there. He started off at 1.2m i got them for 400. Check out the Russian Market, blows the socks off Ben Thanh by a country mile for fakes mate👍🏻🇻🇳
Dude, that coffee is one of the most expensive coffee in the world but it’s tastes meh! I remember I bought half a kilo when I traveled in Bali last October and it was wayyyy wayyy more expensive. Now I’m watching your Saigon vlog because I have a flight to Vietnam this year. And I thank you for your content! 🫱🏻🫲🏼
I love handbags not only because they are an important fashion accessory *esluxy* ,but they can accommodate my little one if you will. So I always buy these things.
I’ve heard of that coffee before don’t think it’s weasel shit though could be wrong 😑 it’s fucken expensive mate you got a bargain I’d have paid that no problem,
I would have broken the bottle just to see if it was a real snake. Radical party shirt mate, you should have kept that tobacco bong and sat up on a pedestal with the leopard print shirt smoking the bong.....they would have left money at your feet.....soem form of new god.....lol
There is a huge problems associated with copy products. These RUclips influencers shouldn't be purchasing fake products in the first place. Fake products have all kinds of legal consequences attached to them as well as being low quality.
Ben Thanh is not the best fake market in Ho Chi Minh. It is the best for ripping off foreigners lol The locals have other places that you wouldn't know of
When he said “I’m looking for a portable charger that won’t blow up the plane” I died 💀😭😭😭
😂same

"The best coconuts are in Vietnam"
I'm Filipino and my expectations are high, Marco. I'm heading to Saigon in a few days 🤣

I stand by my words, they were the best I’ve had anywhere, nice and sweet. Make sure you get a cold one
The Khmer coconut is good it's only a dollar and big

I love that you literally bought snake oil from a market.😂❤
# 2 I used to get my shoes shined for 2 pesos, back when we actually wore shoes, and the PH exchange
was 9 epso to $1, that was 45 years ago.
wow that is crazy! Things have changed, I would not have even been a thought 45 years ago 😂
Good content mate👍🏻
What camera set up are you using?
Thanks mate! GoPro 11 😎
Another banger video :D
Thanks bro!
Love your videos always make me smile!
I’m very curious to know if you drank the cobra 🐍 alcohol?!
Haha good 😁
Nah never drank it… just have it away
May I ask whether the earphones were good quality? Noise cancelling, sound quality and sound fatigue?
You can get good ones, but these were no good …. Very average.
I would just stick to real Apple! I just got some cheap ones to travel with
Marco makes the most entertaining videos ❤
😁
Love your video! I will he flying into HCMC in 2 weeks
Omg you’re good at bargaining. How low do we bargain down to. Were going over there in couple of weeks from Syd
Depends on the item, but I would say approx 1/4 of the first price they give you … but some vendors are just honest straight up, some want to play games and say a ridiculous price up front 😂
Your energy is the greatest mate you 🎉much love ❤️
Thanks mate! 🙏🏽
Marco travel down south to the city of Ca Mau and go crabbing and fishing. Not many tourist travel way down south 😅
should of offered 450 when went back...500 was the old rejected offer..thats what i always do...if i walk price goes down lol
The snake wine can drink and apply for massage pain muscle or joints.
But don't drink too much only 10- 20ml/ time.
at 4:06 she asked her friend what the animal was because even she was confused
Wow 80k subs!! Whoop!!

7:35 you lost all credibility when you paid 40,000 dong for a coconut lol. 20 max and 15 is common.
😂😂😂 man it was some pretty good coconut!
Dude that coffee is the most expensive coffee in the world if its real.
Yeah I know! Super cheap for some reason 🤔
That’s what I was thinking the whole time I watched this video 😂 no way it’s genuine
I bought a “Good Morning Vietnam” shirt there last September. You have to haggle!
Man that was some dope hit!
Hey i have a question😅 are the airpods good that you bought?
They are “okay” for travel, but nothing compares to the real ones 😎
The quality is so good cos the factories for the actual brand is in vietnam as is the case for Nike so the knock off can be so good
Totally true! Some of the stuff I have got there is so amazing
Like your vlog 👍👍👍😎😊

unfortunately all the prices you paid were over the top apart from the cap for $2.
Lol really? I was happy with them 🥲
Ahhhh the old walk out! Good on ya bro! haha
Air pod is way cheaper than coconut ? 500 & 41,000

Dude thats pretty rad!!! Good bargaining "hes gonna grind up the shit" ahahaha weasel coffee

Yeah mate that’s the thing, it was super expensive I’m Indonesia but super cheap in Vietnam
To bargain, you must be thick skin and move to several stalls to get the price.
I just bought the same T-shirt from Binh Tay market (China Town) and the price only 60k/pc 😂
Lol, the power bank 😂 ... Just bought one in the supermarket in Phu quoc also with 10000 mili ampere for 224.000
That's expensive for a coconut. You can buy one for 15.000vnd and bigger.
Mmmm at least it taste good.
Wow, she’s selling the shirt for 350 and he got it for 120. I feel sorry for foreigners that don’t know how to bargain. 😳😳😳
I need to work on my bargain skills b4 i go 😂
😂😂😂 drink and massage 😂😅
😂
This market you haggle strong like a New Yorker 🎉
1st one the red shirt it can be bought for 60-70k
I’ll keep that in mind when I return soon!
I would have broken the bottle just to see if it was a real snake.
Radical party shirt mate, you should have kept that tobacco bong and sat up on a pedestal with the leopard print shirt smoking the bong.....they would have left money at your feet.....soem form of new god.....lol
Hahaha I should have!
They love the hammer and sickle communism over there, it’s a different world
