Passed by Pak Sha Road in Causeway Bay and got misled by this I.T. shop. The shop looks like it's a Leica's show room and especially the shop looks like it's a big Leica camera. What I could see inside were just 4 models of Leica - the newly released D-Lux 5, V-Lux 20, V-Lux 2 and M8. When they think they can catch those Leica's fans into this shop for getting other stuff, it seems to be it's pretty wrong and rather offended them.

It does look like a official Leica store from outside, bait and switch tactic.
Yes this looks like a camera shop to me too, especially the camera window at entrance.
Yes seeing(or hearing) is not believing sometimes.
Yes, at first I thought "wow.. something interesting", but as I went in "what, only 4 cameras?". No matter how good the fashion is, the initiative of tempting people to go in is a bit sick. I am somewhat surprised Leica can cooperate with this shop on this kind of "hanging a sheep's head outside the shop, but selling dog's meat inside.".
I think Leica gets enough compensation for the cooperation.
