Thanks hquek for the advise!

Note that the sprees in SMH forum offer the cheapest shipping rates for dangdang , but I don't know how reliable the organizers are. The SMH forum is not properly controlled. There have been many cases of organizers disappearing after collecting the money.

Hi Tamarind & dangdang supporters,

I emailed dangdang.com to enquire about their shipping charges for bulk purchases & received this reply from them. Hope this is useful. Cheers.

hquek,

Thanks for sharing ! I just went to check and found out that I have 3 vouchers ! Too bad I can only use one voucher at a time. My hubby is now working in China, and I have already asked him to receive 2 parcels for me. Looks like he has to receive another 3 more parcels

oh yes, vouchers usually have an expiry date; so must keep watch.

btw tamarind, care to share if your orders are sent to workplace (where there is receptionist) or to hotel? I failed to have orders sent to hotel (on prior occasions) and would love to know how to succeed. TIA

Does that means for books, there must be a title with 20 copies. Or in the case for books, does not matter since will be more than 20 copies. But in Singapore custom, once the value of the item is more than $400, it will be subjected to 7% GST. For RMB 4000, it will definitely incurr the GST. Not sure if all the hassle is worth it

Need advice if i were to order on dangdang to deliver to an address in Fuzhou :

1. Under '区域购买', 此商品目前可送止以下地区 :
－　上海
－　安徽
－　江苏
－　浙江

If Fuzhou is not included in the list above, will my order be accepted?


2. How much is the delivery charge?

3. Is there a minimum amount per order?

4. How long is the delivery time?

He is working at a university and staying at the dormitory. The delivery man always SMS/call him when he arrives, and they arrange for a place to meet in the university.

Someone told me that her hubby successfully received the orders when staying at the hotel. The person receiving the goods must have a China mobile phone card so that the delivery man can call him, and this number must be entered when you place the order.

Your order will not be accepted since Fuzhou is not in the list.

Actually you are right, the total amount of RMB 4000 will definitely incur GST. So not very cost effective for single purchase leh. Maybe that explains how SMH sprees actually earn from the difference in cost lah. :roll:

But on the other hand.....not scare if the big orders is lost? :!:
