hdejarne Posted July 5, 2007 at 12:04 PM Report Posted July 5, 2007 at 12:04 PM Does anyone know where you can pick up an English copy of Harry Potter book 7 in Beijing? Thanks Quote
roddy Posted July 5, 2007 at 12:18 PM Report Posted July 5, 2007 at 12:18 PM The two bookstores on Wangfujing will have them, probably Xidan Book City as well and you can even preorder from online retailers.I'd phone ahead for availability though. Quote
yonitabonita Posted July 7, 2007 at 11:51 AM Report Posted July 7, 2007 at 11:51 AM I went to the Xidan Bookstore today and they said they'd have stock by the 21st of this month. Can't wait to find out who dies! y Quote
badr Posted July 8, 2007 at 01:58 PM Report Posted July 8, 2007 at 01:58 PM I just checked with the 2 bookstores in wangfujing, they looked like they would be ready for the onslaught with more than enough copies on hand Quote
hdejarne Posted July 18, 2007 at 02:02 AM Author Report Posted July 18, 2007 at 02:02 AM Does anyone know where Harry Potter 7 can be bought in Harbin? Quote
roddy Posted July 18, 2007 at 03:01 PM Report Posted July 18, 2007 at 03:01 PM Beijing Harry Potter fans might want to consider the Bookworm. No idea on Harbin I'm afraid, an online order might be your best bet. Roddy Quote
cicilily Posted July 19, 2007 at 08:07 AM Report Posted July 19, 2007 at 08:07 AM yeah, i want to see it as well. but i am not sure whether its gonna available in Xinjiang Province... ... Quote
adrianlondon Posted July 19, 2007 at 10:44 PM Report Posted July 19, 2007 at 10:44 PM If you can't wait and want to read a book review : http://www.nytimes.com/2007/07/19/books/19potter.html?_r=1&oref=slogin No major spoilers imo, but I'm not a fan so it's up to you. Quote
kdavid Posted July 20, 2007 at 12:19 AM Report Posted July 20, 2007 at 12:19 AM @ hdejarne To my knowledge there is nowhere in Harbin to buy Harry Potter. In fact, I've yet to find a good English-title bookstore anywhere in the city. However, a colleague of mine has just purchased a copy from amazon and having it sent over (a bit expensive, but she's a die hard fan). Quote
Socks Posted July 20, 2007 at 04:00 PM Report Posted July 20, 2007 at 04:00 PM Joyo.com has the Harry Potter books for sale. I assume since they are China's Amazon, it would be a real copy of the book, but I can't guarantee it... If you are in Beijing, you can get it delivered to you pretty quickly (for the person in Harbin, Joyo is notoriously slow on delivering goods quickly, and it takes them days to acknowledge that you even wired money to them)... Here's a link... I hope it helps... (http://www.amazon.cn/detail/product.asp?prodid=enbk601285&ref=SR_T3&uid=168-7737660-9297064) Quote
imron Posted July 20, 2007 at 07:21 PM Report Posted July 20, 2007 at 07:21 PM It's also apparently already been leaked onto the internet. Quote
wenhailin Posted July 21, 2007 at 06:30 AM Report Posted July 21, 2007 at 06:30 AM they accidentally (i think) released it early at xiamen international bookstore, i walked in there on the 19th and there it was for 208 kuai. its not a bad read, and yes they leaked it on to the internet a few days ago.
