Thanks for the info, I'm testing it out with an order as I'm keen to support a local book ordering website. Will do a full review once I receive my order. Thumbs up on the competitve pricing though, let's see whether delivery is as good tongue.gif

Do me a favor and do your review next month instead *laugh*
It might be weird for me to ask you to do that, but there is a reason for me to say that rclxms.gif

Well, I kinda got my order so I've already posted my feedback in the Buying Books Online thread. Some minuses, but overall good better than the other local Online stores that I'm aware of.

I look forward to finding out what there is next month hmm.gif

Some of their books are 'reject stock'. I noticed many misprinted covers the last time I was there. The content should be fine though, can't sell books missing a chapter or two without a huge outcry from the reading public.

There's actually a 2nd hand bookstore on the top most floor of One Utama btw. Its quite near MPH, hidden in a less traveled lane between shops. Quite a selection there. 2nd hand mags as well IIRC. Lots of National Geographic magazines.

Do they buy second hand books, novels and magazines as well? I'm looking for a place to sell off my old collection. There's alot of it so there's no way for me to list them to and put them online.. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hi, I came to know one secondhand bookshop located at 78, Jalan Tun H.S Lee, 5 minutes
walk from Masjid Jamek LRT station, opposite RHB card centre. They have a comprehensive
range of good books, saw many European customers while I was there. They have a good
praise and I bought some good classic and non-fiction. Worth visiting and is a real
treasure trove bookshop. Surely u won't get disappointed.
You may try contact them at 03-2078 3822 or the shop owner, Adelyn at 017-2920855.
I hope the above is informative.

I think kinokuniya is a good bookshop, very well organized, but books are sold at retail price.
Even their website is quite efficient.
