Have you received the remaining 5 books? It's been awhile.

I've got a list a books which I'd like to buy from book depository, as the price is way cheaper than Kinokuniya and MPH. But, I'm still contemplating whether to proceed or not, given the tendency of not being able track the shipment halfway

Hello
i bought another book and it took me close to 6 weeks
so sometimes, you jst need to wait

for me, usually if it's cheaper than what i can find locally, then i will go for it..since 6wks lead time is not that long considering i have alot of unread books nod.gif

My situation is similar to yours. I've got a lot of unread books as well. So, the waiting time is justified.

Based on experience, most books sold on Book Depository is far cheaper than our local bookstores.

The books which you've bought on Book Depository, was it dropped in your mailbox or were you required to collect from Poslaju/Pos Malaysia?

yup. totally agree.
similar book sold at local bookstores usually costs around 50% more than bookdepository. so i dont mind the long wait as well.

all were dropped into my mail box. so far there's no note for pickup nod.gif

You were right about the 50% . There's this one book which I've been eyeing for and it's sold at RM71++ at Kinokuniya and MPH. Over the weekend, there was a price drop notification from Book Depository and when I checked, the book was sold at RM36++. Sadly, when I wanted to place the order today, it's no longer available. Lesson learned cry.gif
