Gaogao Posted June 23, 2009 at 08:25 AM Report Posted June 23, 2009 at 08:25 AM Hi! I´ll be at BLCU in July-August and though I know that there are many gorgeous bookstores in Beijing as well as one at BLCU, but I looked at my university booklist and there may be some books for smaller languages published by FLTRP that I may not be able to buy in right in a bookshop. Also, it seems to me I could get many books a lot cheaper and if I read it right, ordering+giving the address and paying in cash when delivered is possible. But I know the BLCU´s quite far from the city centre, do they deliver there within 2-3 days and is it a problem if I order the books to my dorm in a time when I´m 99% there? (im not the party type, so I will be probably studying in the afternoons) Thanks a lot! Quote
Don_Horhe Posted June 23, 2009 at 09:37 AM Report Posted June 23, 2009 at 09:37 AM They'll deliver the goods, no matter how far away you are from the city center. Plus, you being in Beijing, I don't think that it will take that long. You'll probably get it the following day. Usually when the guy arrives he gives you a call to tell you, and if by any chance you can't make it, you can arrange another pick up date with him. Don't worry about him having made the journey only for your book delivery, as many people, including other foreigners, buy stuff online. Quote
