Department stores like Chung Hsing and Sincere, and boutiques like Hsiao Ya and Ta Yu, all of which specialize in imported goods, have marked down their prices for imports by as much as 70 %. Designers like Wen Ch'ing-chu, Chang Hsi-ning, Li Ch'un-chih and Lu Fang-chih have abandoned their determination of past years not to offer 70 % price cuts and are now joining the fray.
例如以銷售進口舶來品為主的中興、先施百貨，小雅、大宇名店等，許多進口商品都已打到三折；溫慶珠、張希寧、李春枝、呂芳智等設計師品牌，最後也放棄往年「絕不打三折」的原則，加入這場拍賣混戰。
