If you are looking at buying legit brand name products you will find a lot more of what you want in Hong Kong, for other things you will likely want to wait for the mainland. If you're going really soon you might still be able to take advantage of some of the new year sales. Lots of places with up to 70%A off while I was there. Great place anyways, and some nice parks around. If you get a chance to spend an afternoon in the Hong Kong park near Central Station I would recommend it. It's a beautiful little getaway in a convenient spot, with great scenery and a cool aviary.
