“Jenny Shop” across the street from the Holiday Inn Lido
Got my Callaway Big Berthas there in 2006 for $100
Airline crews were in there shopping the same night, not sure if the shop still there...

I bought a few sets back around 07-08 in PEK. Thought i hit the jackpot at first....but clubs didnt last long and a year later im realizing it was a waste of money. If you are a regular player(i am) you can save by purchasing last years latest and greatest next year for a quarter the price. If you only play every once in awhile purchase used....

I buy and sell a LOT of stuff on golfwrx classifieds. Lots of good deals to be had, and also check out the "deal or no deal" forum for current deals people post about. Don't buy knockoffs. Ever. So much great gear available for around the same prices. Contrary to what the manufacturers will say, stuff doesn't change that drastically from year to year. Buy last year's leftovers, or better yet, 2 or 3 years old stuff for pennies on the dollar.
