Order from Dangdang

[tamarind]

hquek,

Wow 1K RMB is a huge order. How many books did you order ?

charliewindson,
I just read through all the posts in the links you provided :

All the posts talked about the difficulty of ordering using credit card, which is well documented in this thread (in kiasuparents forum). I don't see anyone claimed that their payment went through multiple times but dangdang refused to refund. Can you please confirm that you did not receive your refund ? Did you check against your credit card bill and actually have to pay for books that you never received ? As I wrote earlier, you should have called the credit card bank to dispute the transaction. I have spoken to the Amex customer officer before, I told them that I have not received the goods after a long period of time and Amex said they will investigate when I send in the dispute form. I did not do so because I eventually received my books. When we dispute the transaction, the bank will stop payment to dangdang and they must provide proof that you have signed and received the goods. Otherwise if dangdang is found to be cheating, banks will not do business with them.

I am not trying to discredit you, but this is a very serious allegation and I really like to know more.

Hi tamarind, yes it was a lot. That was during the early days when I first knew about DD. Have expanded my collection substantially since then. Keep telling myself tis enough. But then I have to stumble on new items.


Have started to pick up Chinese books also. BC (before children), I would never have read Chinese books. Times are a changing.

Hi hquek,
I have been reading Chinese novels for many years, mostly by a few authors sold in local bookshops and I thought I have exhausted all the good choices. Thanks to dangdang, I discovered a whole new world of excellent Chinese books that are not sold in local bookshops. Even though many good books can be found at the National Library and Maha Yuyi bookshop, I would not have found them if not for the thousands of customer reviews in dangdang which have been so helpful in helping me sift out the excellent books from the mediocre ones.
