Mainland stores once sold out of code and netizens flocked to Hong Kong to buy the goods
As MUJI Ninja shoes became popular on the Internet, some netizens said that they were sold out in some mainland cities, and even sold out in some places, so many people went to Japan to buy them. In addition, some people have discovered that the products are also available in Hong Kong and the price is cheaper than in the mainland, so they want to rush to Hong Kong to purchase goods, or even look for Hong Kong purchasing agents online.
