Default How not to shop in Shanghai...

Was out visiting on thursday when I heard a very funny story.
After the V8SC round in Shanghai group of drivers and crew were shopping in the "markets" (herro herro copy watch?) when one driver spotted a Tag Huer identical to the one he was wearing.

He took his off to try on the fake with the view of buying it.
Would have been a great idea except he left his REAL one worth $lots on the counter in the store.

He is NOT a happy camper.

I will give you 18 guesses who it was... :
