Eight hours in CAN

Hi guys,

I'm planning an eight-hour layover in Guangzhou in early September so I can do some last-minute shopping at Beijing Lu and China Plaza. Yes, I have CDs to buy. :P

Although it has been said many times that you can transit landside on your "airside" transit stamp, how will this work when reentering the sterile area? Will I still need to undergo immigration checks and the like, and will I be scrutinized for it?
