Numisto Valued Member United States 195 Posts	Posted 02/15/2015 7:53 pm Hi all, I will be traveling to Shanghai for work in about a month. I was hoping someone had recommendation for one or more reputable Shanghai coin shops. If there are good places to check out, I don't want to miss them! Thanks Report this Post to the Staff

augsburger Pillar of the Community Germany 1064 Posts	Posted 02/16/2015 06:07 am Any shop you do find will probably be peddling fakes massively. I spent 3 years in China and am going back in April by the looks of things. I found a place in Xi'an that sold what appeared to be a mixture of real and fake, mostly fake, and I didn't know enough or want to pay the prices you'd need to pay for what they claim are real coins. You have to be extremely careful when buying something. Report this Post to the Staff

Numisto Valued Member United States 195 Posts	Posted 02/16/2015 3:42 pm I was there once and I learned how to bargain. Start by offering 20%. And, I know there are a ton of fakes. But, the rare coin market is huge in China and they must have places that sell real ones. I know I have to be very, very careful. Report this Post to the Staff
