Q: What's a good furniture outlet besides IKEA?

IKEA is the best place to buy furniture in China. Agreed. Is there another shop or brand or area you'd recommend?

 

I went to an area that sells second hand furniture in the west end. Not recommended.

we have some stuff from taobao that turned out pretty decent. we have also bought some furniture from the city's "Furniture district". This is pretty basic, laminated wood, not something worth moving on to the next apartment. 

According to my taste most furniture stores in China only have "Ugly Expensive" stuff. I like simple. 

There is actually a second hand place here in town that sells some stuff that is pretty decent. But the things that are in good shape is also pretty much same price as the new stuff. The concept of second hand doesn't work well in China.

A: "... through ..."?  Only "through" comes to mind is "Shenzhen agent can connect you with an employer, who's authorized to hire waigouren ... and can sponsor Z visa." It's not like every 10th person you meet in Shenzhen's hood can sponsor work visa ...  The only way to change from student to labourer visa is just a regular way by: 1. Finding an employer, who'll apply for an Invitation letter; 2. Exit China and apply for Z visa in your home country's Chinese embassy; 3. Enter China in 30-days after Z visa was stamped into your travelling instrument ...As I am aware, you won't be able to switch to Working permit by remaining in China....,so make ready for a return to your home .... -- icnif77
