But they are saying lookie lookie because they want you to look at their stuff, it's not a regional thing is it? Where would them being lucky come from?

What’s the relevance of this? Why do you need to know?

saltwaterandsuncream · 24/07/2022 16:16

What?

TheStarsDontShine · 24/07/2022 16:18

Maybe you're lucky if they don't hassle you 😂 I've only ever known them as looky looky as in 'look at the crap I'm selling here'

Possibly because they're hoping to buy some of the items these guys sell?

PinkBump2022 · 24/07/2022 17:15

@hopeishere yes that’s correct I do like a new pair of sun glasses and maybe a nice little watch

ozymandiusking · 24/07/2022 17:30

rosemarysageandthyme · 25/07/2022 07:28

thejall · 25/07/2022 07:38

kitcat15 · 25/07/2022 07:43

There will be loads of them

heavyistheheed · 25/07/2022 07:45

Sunglasses that'll burn your retinas off in bright sunshine and a watch that'll turn your wrist green? Yes, I think there are Lookie Lookie men in Cancun.

GroggyLegs · 25/07/2022 07:46

I thought it was Lucky Lucky, but yes, now I think about it Lookie Lookie makes more sense 😂

Birmingham accent innit.

How many knock off vendors in Cancun or any other resort have a Birmingham accent? Confused

Mangofandangoo · 25/07/2022 08:03

Yes there are. Beware though because they can be quite persistent.

theemmadilemma · 25/07/2022 08:34

Plenty of them!

Fakes, you mean?

hopeishere · 25/07/2022 09:43

I think the OP knows they are fakes and is content with that.

PinkBump2022 · 26/07/2022 09:09

Of course I know they are all fakes lol I didn’t think I bought a real Rolex last year for 15 euros in Malaga!

How about some drugs? That’s their primary purpose, the sunglasses and shit are just a cover to pull people in
