Most of the POS in China involve some kind of tricks to disable DCC.
On a side note, I was DCCed in HKG, at the Popeye. I suspect that the cashier failed to input the currency choice because the fast-food counter was quite busy. When I was trying to dispute the charge to Citi, and inputing the dispute amount of $0.2, I quit, thinking the dispute would look ridiculous.
If Citi provided a choice of "I was billed in the wrong currency", I would have gone ahead and finish dispute.
