HONG KONG - Paper money, clothes, luxury cars and handbags have long been standard items for the Qing Ming festival, also known as grave-sweeping day, when replica offerings are burnt for the dead to use in the afterlife.
'iPads are the bestsellers this year,' said Mr Chan, a shop owner in Hong Kong's busy Causeway Bay district, pointing at the black iPads that go for HK$25 (S$4.05) each.
Another shop owner said high-tech items including iPads, iPhones, laptops and LCD TVs were sold out despite placing additional orders for the paper products.'People have been buying like crazy, it's all sold-out,' said the shop owner who gave her name as Yuen.
