QUOTE(staind @ Aug 31 2011, 07:36 PM) Their price list updated to USD. Now it make sense. The previous cheap price in MYR was a mistake. No wonder it's so cheap back then... i did go back and check the website and was astonished to see it in USD. I thought i saw it wrongly. Thanks for the clarification. |

QUOTE(staind @ Aug 31 2011, 07:36 PM) One question. Books that are bought from online website such as bookdepository, do they qualify for income tax rebate? I read somewhere (can't remember though) that they qualify for the rebate. Not sure if it's for online Malaysian seller only or for any online seller though. I hope other people can help clarify. |

QUOTE(puiwen @ Aug 24 2011, 04:48 PM) Yup.. the last time i asked around about fishpond, people were saying i am trying to advertise. The products are cheap but reviews are very negative. Bookxcess at amcorp mall sells new books for 2nd hand price. They are on Facebook too and they organise large fairs every year as Big Bad Wolf which will be held on the 24th Nov. Check them out on twitter or Facebook. Have fun reading  |

i think they will try to deliver for 1~3x, if they still cant get you, they will put a notes and you'll have to self-collect at your nearest pos office / where they assign the parcel.

Hi Guys! I bought 4 books from BookDepository too but none arrive to my house after 4 weeks. I don't know if there is any postal problem to Kota Kinabalu, Sabah. Luckily BD refunded the money in full, though I have to absorb a slight exchange loss

I usually give it about 6 weeks. |

Hi!Mine was shipped on 30/4 and they said I can drop them an email if it hasn't arrived until 14/5. Since your experience says it takes kinda long to reach us, shall I wait for one month or just drop them an email saying that I haven't received it? Thanks! |

QUOTE(manjusaka @ May 15 2013, 10:57 AM) Hi! That expected date applies to countries with proper mail couriers, unlike Malaysia Mine was shipped on 30/4 and they said I can drop them an email if it hasn't arrived until 14/5. Since your experience says it takes kinda long to reach us, shall I wait for one month or just drop them an email saying that I haven't received it? Thanks!  I usually wait an extra week or 2 before contacting them. The reason why I do this is because if everyone complains to BD about late shipments they will have to refund/resend a lot of parcels. Eventually, selling to Malaysians will become unprofitable and they'll stop shipping to Malaysia. That's my worry. |
