Join Hablaaa and add the expression no one else has documented.

/Sounds like "fah" (as in "far") + "yoo" (as in "you") + "KEH" (as in "kept") + "roh" (as in "row")/

Meaning

In Mexico, someone who sells imported or smuggled goods, typically electronics, clothes, or perfumes, at prices well below retail. From "fayuca," meaning informally imported merchandise.

Examples

I bought headphones from the fayuquero at the market, half the price of the store.

That fayuquero already has the latest models before they officially arrive.

To laugh so hard you almost pee yourself, a vivid expression for when something is so ridiculously funny you completely lose control. It's the gold standard for describing gut-busting, tears-streaming, can't-breathe laughter.
