Chinatown
Can players trade Shop tiles before the reveal?
The rulebook says trading begins at the same time for everyone, after the simultaneous reveal.

No. Tiles stay face down until every player has drawn, and trading begins only once they are all revealed together. The rulebook does not expressly forbid talking beforehand, but most groups stay quiet until the reveal, and some allow a deal agreed in advance as a house rule.
