You will find some real stuff but not really in the night markets etc. where it is hell cheap.
Most of the "real" electronics was about 20% cheaper than AUD prices and came from proper electronics stores... there was very little room for negotiation and upon checking at about 10-15 similar stores they were all within a few bucks of each other.
Most stores in Taiwan are open until 10-11PM minimum and its good to go shopping at night!
Search google for "Barbershop Taiwan" or similar and you'll find out about the barbershops. They aren't she-male related or anything majorly sus like that.
Watch out for your wallet etc. when walking around the night markets and other busy places... pick pockets around apparently.
Nothing as bad as Shenzhen in China though... get through customs and grandma tries to steal your luggage while everyone else begs from you!
Don't give anyone anything EVER!
PS They don't like it when you use their collection plate as an ashtray
