So I have to be beware of imitations. Heard that golfing there is very expensive...at least S$150.

Hi. Beijing is a fantastic city to be at, but golf shopping is certainly not high on the list of must do's.

While imitation or factory over-runs of golf bags are prevalent in China, they will no doubt, be much, much harder to find in Beijing than in in the southern regions of China. As such, I would think that you would most benefit from your trip if you focus your attention on the other wonders of Beijing. I love that city. Enjoy.
