| I've ordered off of Amazon. The shipping is kinda steep but it was delivered to me no problems. If you gotta have it, you can't do wrong with that. |

| I know you can order via whatthebook, but I don't know if it's any cheaper than Amazon. |

whatthebook has free shipping, so yeah, they're cheaper. And if they don't have the book you want, they'll order it for you. |

Just ordered some books from www.whatthebook.com this morning. For free shipping you need to order two books. Or you can pick it up for free in Itewan I believe.
They have lots of stuff. I just ordered a French becherelle. I have been looking for one for months. They have used books as well. Shipping is w4,000. But, you can get a used book for a second order (which can cost about 4,000-5,000) and get free shipping. |

Wow! What a great site. I found all the fifth and sixth grade titles that I loved as a kid.
Thanks a lot,

| Many people have gotten screwed by Korean customs and charged a huge import tax when ordering from Amazon.com. What the book is the way to go. |
