a Threads post<\/a> its first store will open in an Eslite Spectrum outlet located on Wuchang Street in Taipei’s Ximending business district.<\/p>\n“Let’s welcome 3coins’ grand debut in Taiwan,” the retailer said.<\/p>\n
Eslite, one of Taiwan’s top bookstore chains, confirmed that the first 3coins shop will open on the fourth floor of its Wuchang outlet, known for its emphasis on a “playful lifestyle” and “fresh and fun trends.”<\/p>\n
3coins’ pricing strategy in Japan of charging only 300 Japanese yen (US$1.89) or about NT$60 for most of the products it displays have made its outlets favorites among many different types of consumers.<\/p>\n
The retailer provides a wide range of products, such as kitchenware, home decoration items, cosmetics and beauty goods, kids’ items and toys, travel goods and seasonal merchandise.<\/p>\n
3coins is similar to another discount Japanese variety chain, Daiso, which opened its first shop in Taiwan in the early 2000s.<\/p>\n
Lin Shi-bi (\u6797\u6c0f\u74a7), who calls himself an independent traveler addicted to Japan, said on his Facebook page that he is keeping a close eye on how 3coins will price its products in Taiwan.<\/p>\n
He speculated that the standard price of three 100-yen coins could become three NT$50 coins in Taiwan.<\/p>\n
