标题: Purchase books from abroad [打印本页] 作者: omni 时间: 2002-10-02 23:30 标题: Purchase books from abroad Dear forum members,\r\n\r\nI have been reading and posting in this forum for a while - and I really enjoy the professional study enviroment. I also noticed that due to the trading distance and difference of the exchange system, our members encountered some hard time obtain proper study material needed.\r\n\r\nFor the books/CDs, you may directly order books/CDs from Amazon using ground shipping. Or, if you have problems directly place an order to Amazon or other provider, I may be of some help.\r\n\r\nI guess I can be a order/shipping contact. I will figure out the whole process:\r\n- somebody contacts me for a book/CD;\r\n- I obtain the cost: material+shipping to me + shippinh to China;\r\n- he/she wires payment in RMB to my contact in China;\r\n- I order it and have it ship to me (in Canada);\r\n- I ship it to China somebody\'s address.\r\n\r\nSo, I guess by this way he/she can get the material, maybe a little bit later than direct order/shipping, and may cost a little bit more (shipping to Canada+China). I will not put any extra charge - you let me know the exchange rate, you pay RMB. There is a drawback - I have to pay tax here, I don\'t know if any tax applied to orders placed from China.\r\n\r\nOne more issue: the receipt. I will have the receipt and waybills ship to you with the material. I read a post that someone had problem with \"foreign receipt\", that I can not help.\r\n\r\nPlease let me know if this will work or not - any suggestions?\r\n\r\n(Did not run spell check.)作者: netbanker 时间: 2002-10-03 00:03 标题: GREAT IDEA OMNI such a warm-hearted man...\r\n\r\nbtw, which city u live now? toronto? mind provide your email here?\r\n\r\nbest regards,\r\nzy作者: omni 时间: 2002-10-03 00:16 标题: Mississauga - 25km west of Toronto downtown core. netbanker, I remember you mentioned earlier you were in Canada, where are you located?
