My tentative plan on our shopping day in Beijing is to take you to: (1) The famous “Antique Market” (where antiques are made and discovered each day!); and (2) one of the Silk Allies/Silk Markets.  Last year’s students felt these were good places to hit.
Do a Google search and see what you can find out about these two venues.

If, as you hit Google and the travel books, there are other areas in Beijing you would like to hit for shopping, now is the time for trip participants to do that research and let me know your wishes!
