      Thanks Tamarind for your useful advise, really helpful 😄


      My order have not arrived yet. Really hope to kick off asap for my boy. I will try my best to teach, I believe we would gain something even it may take a longer time to achieve.

      Do u have experience with 65daigou.com? I am thinking if the waiting time is much shorter, 65daigou is a good avenue to consider to buy from dangdang books. and wonder by going thru 65daigou, will it help to solve the credit card issue?

        I have not ordered anything with 65daigou before. You can read this excellent blog by keltong :
        http://www.kelvintong.com/2011/03/07/chinese-books-purchased-from-65daigou-com/

        It is definitely a lot faster, and you can do bank transfer. But the shipping cost is higher, and you must be very careful not to buy heavy sets of books, otherwise the shipping will be more expensive than the cost of the books.

          Yes, I saw your posting regarding the 65daigou that’s why quite tempting to try. However, as I prefer to get book sets / collection. I supposed the heavy sets of books mean these type of book bah…this case sure incur heavy shipment charge as well. Hmmm…think unless got books that in need urgently. In view to the big order which often time could sum up to a few hundreds de… think better 乖乖 wait patiently for dangdang to ship to us.

            Yes if you are getting just one or two books and you need them urgently, it is fine to use 65daigou. For books sets of 10 or more, it will be cheaper to use direct shipping.

            In case other parents are interested to know, the set of 7 books of Si Wu Kuai Du weighs slightly over 2 kg, those who want to try 65daigou can check with them about the estimated shipping charges.

                        Hi micollh,
                        Look for a circle with dots in it. It should be on the cover and on the side. One dot means book 1, 2 dots mean book 2 and so on.

                        Look at this image, the circle is beside 500.

                        It took me quite long to realize that 😉
