Taobao is China's Ebay. It's part of the
Alibaba Group which includes
Alibaba.com "The world's largest online B2B marketplace."
Taobao and Alibaba are interesting to look at. In the case of Taobao.com all I can do is look since it's in Chinese. Non-Chinese language readers need to use Google Translator or something like the
Taobao Field Guide to check out what's for sale.
You can find some sweet
bo staffs for 50
renminbi or about 7 dollars U.S. (if you can figure out how to transfer money to China). You may want to check out the
Bo Staffs how to select guide before buying your staff.
Otherwise it's fun to look at what people are buying and selling.
