The taxi rank at the maglev station is easy to find (walk over a bridge and down an escalator - do not go down the escalator before crossing over the (short) bridge). It is a controlled and supervised rank.
I just saw this thread and will share my not so good experience. I went PVG tp Maglev train station then grabbed a cab. The cab driver told me to 12 at hengshen was roughly 400 RMB. I got there and the meter read 580, then he said you owe me highway service of 100 RMB and luggage service of 100RMB. i told him to get lost and paid the 580 RMB, unfortunately once i saw the meter i never really watched it so cant say if it was broken or what but it said 580 when i looked up at the hotel.
