Shopping (retail) in Shanghai?
« on: Sun, 03 November 2013, 14:54:53 »
I'm going to be in Shanghai next month. What are the current geekhack-recommended keyboard vendors in Shanghai?

(I know I can order from Taobao - I'm specifically looking for retail shops)

Thanks!

What are the benefits of buying retail? I'd assume its more than from taobao, as you don't need a physical store

I guess one maybe able to see the product that they are buying and/or test the keyboard out before hading the money. Not all shops allow that though but regardless, buying stuff from shops aren't necessarily cheaper than buying from say amazon where it basically lacks a shop front. In either cases it is noteworthy to do one's homework and compare.
