    I'm just curious about the Chinese New Year. I've read what seems to be conflicting information. Since this is an International forum, I thought I would ask directly. When do your New Year celebrations start and end? What do you do to celebrate?

    I think it's for a few weeks, not sure.

    First I saw some listings of an Ebay seller from China, saying they celebrate it on Jan 7th. Then I heard it was much later elsewhere, like towards the end of the month. It just made me wonder.
