This is the shocking moment shoppers started wrestling with each other to grab designer clothes from a market stall.
The sellers arrived with bags of cut-price branded dresses in General Santos City in the Philippines at around 8am on November 16.
They were selling colourful used garments for just 35 pesos (53 pence) when usually designer dresses would sell for thousands of pesos in the Philippines.

Onlooker Cristine Santos said the most competitive shoppers were probably those hoping to resell the cheap clothes for a small profit.
She said: ‘The people were just going wild trying to get their hands on the clothes.’
Cristine said the top branded clothes were given a low price because they arrived from overseas.
They are usually supplied by shops in the West where customers can weigh-in their old clothes for around 50 pence a kilo.
