Come here on 30-31 of December, this shopping mall will be absolutely full of people, massive crowds. Or every day in evening, especially on weekends. This shopping mall is always overcrowded. I go there on DDX fitness almost everyday. Once I found 5000 roubles on the flour, somebody lost, and I had great dinner with sushi for free and 4000 roubles change 😂
Doesn't look like it. I am surprised of how many businesses have English names, though I have never heard of them in USA. Btw, "Scalpers" would be a terrible name for a business in USA. That name has a bad connotation in the US.

Honestly, I liked the comments a lot more than the video. It's a real zombie apocalypse. “The Walking Dead" in real life. If you look closely, you can even hear growling and brains hanging out of their heads. And... I'm pleased. Everything's going according to plan. 😆
To start with, in Russia, Christmas is in early January, not December, so the time for this place to be packed hasn't arrived yet... so that tells its own tale about the effect of Western sanctions. Also, one really shouldn't expect those sanctions to have any effect on inventory levels, since the West stopped manufacturing goods a long time ago. Russia has a huge manufacturing base of its own, and produces more than enough of its own food and manufactured goods. It's also on very friendly terms with China, which manufactures the majority of the goods that are in the West, so the sanctions are meaningless in that respect. What the sanctions have done is weaken the West as it has increased their energy costs, and prompted a lot of countries to dump the US Dollar as their medium of international trade
Not entirely true about Christmas. In Russia, Christmas is not the main holiday, but a church holiday; it is practically not celebrated, unlike the New Year.
Moscow shopping centers are crowded at the end of the working day from about 17:00 to 22:00, especially on Friday night or on weekends. It is also worth adding that many people, including me, have stopped visiting shopping centers, as now everything can be bought online, without leaving home, on the websites of the same stores that are presented in shopping centers or on marketplaces WB and Ozon
yeah no. This is not normal and no, russians are not different from other Europeans, so largest mall in Moscow being soo empty indicates seruious problem. Fact, that Putin wants armistice, despite fact, he did not achieve single goal in Ukraine yet his army is still slowly advancing, supports theory that Russians are out of money. This is not good situation at all, because if Russia will lose war over Ukraine, inevitable collapse would destroy this last barricade against american imperialism.
Superb content, mate. Russia is a place my family and I are very keen to move to. Beautiful country and equally beautiful people. The west can't portray this place any worse...British and US Democrat propaganda is vile! Keep up your great work. Thank you.
The cleanlinss, safety and prosperity of the gas and oil elite in Moscow and St Pertersburg is measured in the sacrifice of millions of poverty stricken Russians in the rest of Russia, the 750, 000 Russian military casualties and the human rights of Ukrainians.
Hope when you move there you enjoy having your name added to the conscription list, or do think you're above that sort of thing? you think you're special and should get to live there but not have the same responsibilities as Russians?
I look forward to your videos, they always make me happy.. not much to be happy about in UK for the next few years at least.. But seeing the beauty of Russia and you really do seem to have been adopted by the Russian people too.

This is very different to the image that my country of Australia and our media (which includes The Guardian and BBC) depicts. My view of Russia has been that there is just muddy paths, everyone afraid and under control, and almost a post nuclear war zone atmosphere with hackers everywhere. This image that I see here is very different. The more I see actual footage the more I feel as I have been duped.
Yes Can you imagine Russian Orthodox going to Britain or New York on January 7 and saying it is Christmas, marry Christmas and..... Very rude and disrespectful

BBC would never show this they want us to believe Russia is dirty and people are completely broke and can't get stuff due to sanctions but that's a description of us in the UK 😂😂😂😂😎
100% agree on this one. London is a pithole with rubbish people brought together from all around the world, Russia is a paradise land and always will be. Don't get me started on British way of doing things, opposite of what sanely thinking people would do. 😮Like why would you import all kinds of people and thus destroy fully your own culture in your fatherland. Is that what your forefathers fought for? Baffles my mind
Sanctions haven't hurt Russia much, they've been used to them for decades at this point. All the sanctions do is hurt the rest of Europe, particularly the EU countries.
Never seen anything like you’re describing on the BBC to be honest. The sanctions are about the invasion of Ukraine and so we’re more than willing to put up with the slight and temporary inconvenience in the EU. Most people in the comments seem to have a very exaggerated view of the way Russia is portrayed - we’re not idiots and we’re quite aware of where sanctions are hitting and where they are not. They are not aimed at “normal’ Russian people. Also the reason many companies have left Russia is because of a moral choice - not to cause financial harm. Not many companies want to deal with a country whose government is continually threatening the world with nuclear annihilation.

I am from Los Angeles California and right now in Moscow ..and I noticed my US debit card and credit card don't work here haha . But the only thing that works is my cellphone (mobile) phone . US carriers kept the roaming agreements with Russian networks . I have T-Mobile and roaming on a Russian carrier right now and I get free unlimited data and calls . I am glad they kept the roaming agreements with Russian networks.
Visa and mastercard bank cards of tourists do not work in Russia due to sanctions associated with the SWIFT payment system, but visa and mastercard cards of Russians without problems continue to work in Russia, they are serviced by the Russian analog of SWIFT
Had a Boxing Day trip to my local mall in Leeds UK. I felt like a minority in my own country! 95% of people weren’t white or British. I’m not racist but it isn’t right in a European country
Funny thing. I've been to UK twice for a week. I was so enthusiastic to meet British mates but hardly met any. Ironically, I met more British in Moscow later. 😂
probably because Russia is a developed, civilized country, while Britain is literally the ass of the world and a country of not even 3, but 4 worlds, in which literally not people live, but cattle.

@@ObIitus Christmas is celebrated in Russia to the point that they broadcast the liturgy on TV, but it is more of a religious holiday observed by religious people, while all the festivities and entertainment and parties and galas are centered around New Year.

50 manned checkouts with cashiers. I went to my local ASDA on a busy evening and they had only ONE manned checkout with cashier open. Everyone was expected to go through the "self service" (forced to pay for shopping AND work for the company at the same time). I explained to them that I have 2 disabled children so could they open another checkout. They refused
Asda is shithole, food is disgusting, choice is scarce unless is pure inedible junk, checkouts all manned by immigrants, no enjoyment in shopping whatsoever. Whole UK is like that.
Really. 🤔 Oh. When I am abroad, the only question I have, why all the shops close mostly in 18.30 and do not work on Sunday and on Holidays? 😢 in Russia everything is open everyday till 23.00.
Sanctions is making the citizens and their leaders working hard to survive and believed they can survive with what they have and they're becoming more economically strong and stronger .

Interesting video Jim. It looks like a lot of companies/ clothing brands have sipmjust changed or swapped their brand names about rather than so called sanctions.
Hi from UK! I think “Ashan” is much, much bigger than Asda and Tesco, it’s a huge supermarket 👍So much choices over there, very clean, beautiful shopping centre 👍👍👍Thank you
Мне Ашан совсем не нравится. Много некачественных товаров. Заказываю Пятёрочку и Магнит. И да, давно не хожу по магазинам. Зачем? Все приносят. Набираешь корзину лёжа на диване, оплачиваешь и приносят. Доставка бесплатная.
Yes just the transcription of Auchan which is a big French supermarkets chain Auchan belongs to the Mulliez family group one of the biggest retail groups in the world (the sport apparel retailer Décathlon belongs to them) When the war in Ukraine broke out they decided to stay in Russia despite strong political pressures
Ашан in Avia Park looks bigger than our local shopping centre. I saw a video of one, and the alcohol section looked bigger than my local Tesco. Спасибо за это видео.
Moscow itself is a huge city. Everything is huge here, including the shops. We don't have dense buildings, like in China, for example, there is a lot of land, there is room to grow 😂
Moscow is constantly growing, absorbing the nearest cities and towns. This process has been going on since the founding of Moscow. Borovitsy village was located next to the Kremlin, and one of the Kremlin towers, Borovitskaya, as well as a street and a metro station, are named after it. There are many examples, during its existence Moscow has absorbed several hundred (!!!) the nearest villages. The growth process is still ongoing, and Moscow has recently expanded tens of kilometers to the south, joining several districts of the Moscow region.
In Russia, the largest marketplace is Wildberries, which is larger than Ozon. Wildberries has more sellers from different countries, so the competition is higher. In the world ranking, Wildberries ranks 9th, and Ozon ranks 10th.
@watcher360 I don't use Wildberries. They charge money for shipping, for refunds, and who knows what else. In addition, scandals with employees regularly arise. I prefer Ozon.
@@NatalyCrowley I prefer Wildberries because I have never encountered what you wrote. When returning a quality product, I was charged a 50-cent commission. Perhaps the fee has increased, but this is the buyer's responsibility, as they chose the wrong item and returned it despite the product being of good quality. If the product is defective or the wrong item was delivered, no commission will be deducted, and you will be fully reimbursed for your expenses. Most Russians buy from Wildberries because of the excellent service, large selection of goods, and lower prices. Wildberries is larger than Ozon because it has more clients. This marketplace has the most extensive network of warehouses, which covers the entire territory of Russia and several neighboring countries (Armenia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan).
@@watcher360 WB неудобный. К тому же там много некачественного товара. Озон гораздо лучше следит за продавцами и решает конфликты. Если честно, то лучше уж Яндекс-маркет,который сейчас сильно испортился, чем WB.

That is not a mall, that is a world all by itself. It looks so empty but when you look closely you’ll realize there are at least 20-30k people in there. You’d fill a stadium with the amount of people you see in the main square alone.
Верно, но просто это утро рабочего дня, и только в это время там можно относительно спокойно делать покупки. В выходные дни там безумное количество народа
I'd say lately lego has been quite expensive but still kind of affordable. Lego shop that you showed (Мир Кубиков) usually has everything significantly overpriced compared to say Yandex Market (pretty much another ozon). For instance a big 2.8k pieces set that i bought this year costed me like 16-17k rubles, in Мир Кубиков it would cost around 30k.
Hi from Florida, wow, that is so big. I wouldn't have the strength to go through it. Feel like I would become lost in that place. What does it mean for it to be sanctioned? Would this mean "allowed" to shop in this place?
@@svensulzmann4282 In the West, no one cares whether there are Western products in Russia. The main rule is that Western companies simply should not supply products directly. They use other countries as intermediaries, and everything is fine.
@@nickkarpanand the biggest problem with that is that there really aren't many "western" products anymore. What is there really that was produced by an American, German, or British company that can't be easily replaced by a Chinese, Indian, or Russian company? Nothing.

Are sanctions working? Good question. I would say yes, but Russia has enough brain and money to overcome those quite effectively, as you can see in this video. On the other hand, we are so got used to unstanandard situations, so getting adjusted is in our blood. Greetings from Moscow, Merry Christmas & HNY!❤
Seen travelling with Brussels video of this place ,so won't watch ,but what I will say again what an incredible place ,clean massive and well stocked .what sanctions
For example, the vast majority of products are made in China, even if they are labeled with European brands.And Russia and China, if not allies, are somewhere close to it.
Western shopping malls are not very busy during the week either. I shop online, but if I need to go to the mall,I will go on Tuesday morning, for example,to avoid lines.
The reason why there are not that many people in the mall in Moscow today is that in Russia Christmas is not celebrated on December 24 and 25. Rather Christmas in Russia is celebrated around the 7 of January in accordance with the Gregorian calendar thank you very much and enjoy your afternoon ☺️☺️

Всем иностранцам привет из России. Я Русский, родом из Сибири - Томск, нынче проживаю в Краснодаре у черного моря. Я очень люблю свою страну без всяких преувеличений, несмотря на санкции и войну - со своими сложностями в экономике, посещая разные города и регионы и далеко не столичные - я не вижу нигде каких либо проблем с наполнением начиная от продуктов заканчивая техникой и чем либо еще. Да, Китай сыграл большую роль импортозамещения санкицонных товаров, но у меня нету никаких претензий к их товару, разве что заполонившие мою страну китайские авто, пожалуй они должны пройти 2-3 модернизации своих линеек чтобы адаптироваться под местный климат и прочие работы над ошибками. Тем не менее езжа постоянно в такси - их у нас очень много Jeely , Omoda , Zeekr и тд - они выглядят прикольно. Мне даже кажется, если санкции затянутся я предпочту мерседесу какой нибудь Hongqi H9, их стиль мне очень нравится. В общем - как говорится, все что не убивает делает нас сильнее. Если сейчас и есть некие издержки с тем или иным в плане качества или незначительно, но возросшей цены - все это рано или поздно будет преодолено. Да у нас не будут гей браков как в Европе или еще каких "крутых" нововведений ( сарказм ) , но я уверен что тот путь по которому мы идем семимильными шагами заставит ту же европу и америку позавидовать, не через 10 лет, так через 20 и так далее.
Мы граждане Казахстана часто бываем в России и видим своими глазами, как там живут. И когда смотрим Европейские , американские СМИ, то видим огромную ложь с их стороны. И поэтому у нас становится негативное и неприятное отношение к странам которые распространяют лож о России. 🇰🇿
Another TH-camr did a video some time ago about some published research on Lego prices through the decades, which found that the price per piece has remained nearly constant allowing for inflation - so much so that it is assumed to be corporate policy. It's an extraordinary product that is manufactured to high tolerance, strength and durability despite being relatively cheap. The basic coloured blocks that everyone remembers from childhood are still sold, and are still compatible with each other, while Lego is constantly innovating and bringing out new designs. Considering how long a set is likely to last and how much enjoyment it is likely to give over the years, it's actually fantastic value. I've never known anyone throw Lego away - It always gets safely stored somewhere or passed on. Is there any other toy of which that can be said?

My view of Russia has been that there is just muddy paths, everyone afraid and under control, and almost a post nuclear war zone atmosphere with hackers everywhere. This image that I see here is very different. The more I see actual footage the more I feel as I have been duped.

Hi New York. The history of Aviapark is he exact same as Roosevelt Field. Avia Park used to be an airport.
BBC would never show this they want us to believe Russia is dirty and people are completely broke and can't get stuff due to sanctions but that's a description of us in the UK 😂😂😂😂😎
100% agree on this one. London is a pithole with rubbish people brought together from all around the world, Russia is a paradise land and always will be. Don't get me started on British way of doing things, opposite of what sanely thinking people would do. 😮Like why would you import all kinds of people and thus destroy fully your own culture in your fatherland. Is that what your forefathers fought for? Baffles my mind
I was going to say that is what the UK is like recently.
Sanctions haven't hurt Russia much, they've been used to them for decades at this point. All the sanctions do is hurt the rest of Europe, particularly the EU countries.
Never seen anything like you’re describing on the BBC to be honest. The sanctions are about the invasion of Ukraine and so we’re more than willing to put up with the slight and temporary inconvenience in the EU. Most people in the comments seem to have a very exaggerated view of the way Russia is portrayed - we’re not idiots and we’re quite aware of where sanctions are hitting and where they are not. They are not aimed at “normal’ Russian people. Also the reason many companies have left Russia is because of a moral choice - not to cause financial harm. Not many companies want to deal with a country whose government is continually threatening the world with nuclear annihilation.

50 manned checkouts with cashiers. I went to my local ASDA on a busy evening and they had only ONE manned checkout with cashier open. Everyone was expected to go through the "self service" (forced to pay for shopping AND work for the company at the same time). I explained to them that I have 2 disabled children so could they open another checkout. They refused
Asda is shithole, food is disgusting, choice is scarce unless is pure inedible junk, checkouts all manned by immigrants, no enjoyment in shopping whatsoever. Whole UK is like that.

Moscow itself is a huge city. Everything is huge here, including the shops. We don't have dense buildings, like in China, for example, there is a lot of land, there is room to grow 😂
Moscow is constantly growing, absorbing the nearest cities and towns. This process has been going on since the founding of Moscow. Borovitsy village was located next to the Kremlin, and one of the Kremlin towers, Borovitskaya, as well as a street and a metro station, are named after it. There are many examples, during its existence Moscow has absorbed several hundred (!!!) the nearest villages. The growth process is still ongoing, and Moscow has recently expanded tens of kilometers to the south, joining several districts of the Moscow region.
If you'll come to Moscow, buy goods on Ozon. It's much cheaper.
In Russia, the largest marketplace is Wildberries, which is larger than Ozon. Wildberries has more sellers from different countries, so the competition is higher. In the world ranking, Wildberries ranks 9th, and Ozon ranks 10th.
@watcher360 I don't use Wildberries.
They charge money for shipping, for refunds, and who knows what else. In addition, scandals with employees regularly arise. I prefer Ozon.
@@NatalyCrowley I prefer Wildberries because I have never encountered what you wrote. When returning a quality product, I was charged a 50-cent commission. Perhaps the fee has increased, but this is the buyer's responsibility, as they chose the wrong item and returned it despite the product being of good quality. If the product is defective or the wrong item was delivered, no commission will be deducted, and you will be fully reimbursed for your expenses. Most Russians buy from Wildberries because of the excellent service, large selection of goods, and lower prices. Wildberries is larger than Ozon because it has more clients. This marketplace has the most extensive network of warehouses, which covers the entire territory of Russia and several neighboring countries (Armenia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan).
@@watcher360 WB неудобный. К тому же там много некачественного товара. Озон гораздо лучше следит за продавцами и решает конфликты. Если честно, то лучше уж Яндекс-маркет,который сейчас сильно испортился, чем WB.

I'd say lately lego has been quite expensive but still kind of affordable. Lego shop that you showed (Мир Кубиков) usually has everything significantly overpriced compared to say Yandex Market (pretty much another ozon). For instance a big 2.8k pieces set that i bought this year costed me like 16-17k rubles, in Мир Кубиков it would cost around 30k.
Hi from Florida, wow, that is so big. I wouldn't have the strength to go through it. Feel like I would become lost in that place. What does it mean for it to be sanctioned? Would this mean "allowed" to shop in this place?
Western companies left Russia.
Yes, it just means that a long list of items of Western production and services are not to be sold legally to Russia.
@@svensulzmann4282 In the West, no one cares whether there are Western products in Russia. The main rule is that Western companies simply should not supply products directly. They use other countries as intermediaries, and everything is fine.

Всем иностранцам привет из России. Я Русский, родом из Сибири - Томск, нынче проживаю в Краснодаре у черного моря. Я очень люблю свою страну без всяких преувеличений, несмотря на санкции и войну - со своими сложностями в экономике, посещая разные города и регионы и далеко не столичные - я не вижу нигде каких либо проблем с наполнением начиная от продуктов заканчивая техникой и чем либо еще. Да, Китай сыграл большую роль импортозамещения санкицонных товаров, но у меня нету никаких претензий к их товару, разве что заполонившие мою страну китайские авто, пожалуй они должны пройти 2-3 модернизации своих линеек чтобы адаптироваться под местный климат и прочие работы над ошибками. Тем не менее езжа постоянно в такси - их у нас очень много Jeely , Omoda , Zeekr и тд - они выглядят прикольно. Мне даже кажется, если санкции затянутся я предпочту мерседесу какой нибудь Hongqi H9, их стиль мне очень нравится. В общем - как говорится, все что не убивает делает нас сильнее. Если сейчас и есть некие издержки с тем или иным в плане качества или незначительно, но возросшей цены - все это рано или поздно будет преодолено. Да у нас не будут гей браков как в Европе или еще каких "крутых" нововведений ( сарказм ) , но я уверен что тот путь по которому мы идем семимильными шагами заставит ту же европу и америку позавидовать, не через 10 лет, так через 20 и так далее.
Legos have become expensive because of the sanctions. Before that, autumn was affordable

Another TH-camr did a video some time ago about some published research on Lego prices through the decades, which found that the price per piece has remained nearly constant allowing for inflation - so much so that it is assumed to be corporate policy. It's an extraordinary product that is manufactured to high tolerance, strength and durability despite being relatively cheap. The basic coloured blocks that everyone remembers from childhood are still sold, and are still compatible with each other, while Lego is constantly innovating and bringing out new designs. Considering how long a set is likely to last and how much enjoyment it is likely to give over the years, it's actually fantastic value. I've never known anyone throw Lego away - It always gets safely stored somewhere or passed on. Is there any other toy of which that can be said?
Boxing Day is a British and Canadian thing. We have a lot of sales on Boxing Day.
