I just bought quite a number of books few days ago from BD.
QUOTE(yitjuan @ Apr 21 2012, 11:48 PM) Before you buy from bookdepository, check and see if they are available at acmamall. The reason I say this is because I've noticed acmamall lower their prices to compete with bookdepository, and they are much faster in shipping. (being local) Not impressed by Acma. (Of course, this is just one instance of examples)  Amazon has shipping cost, BD now has 10% discount on all items 'til mid of May, Acma is reporting a very high original price. |

I lost one of my books too (not receiving anything for 2 weeks, how saddening), will be visiting my nearby post office (call 1300-300-300 to find out) on Monday.
