Chinese consumers' greedy appetite for luxury goods and services appears unstoppable, with just 2 percent of the Chinese population responsible for one-third of the world's luxury items. As China's economic miracle continues and spreads across second- and third-class cities, the market opportunities for all sorts of luxury goods and services are unlimted.
