I am taking a trip to Tokyo, Japan at the end of this month and wanted to pick up a copy of Lonely Planet's Tokyo edition. I went to What the Book? in Iteawon, but they were sold out. They said the were not sure when or if they would restock. Does anyone have any other ideas of where I could get an English copy of said book? Does anyone have an old one lying around they would part with?

Thanks in advance,
Ryan

You should be able to find one at Kyobo Tower in Gangnam. The kyobo book store is the bottom floor of the building. They have a pretty good selection of books. Good Luck! Very Happy

All your book needs. Order at least two and the shipping is free.

Or you can order through our community and help support teachers who put in a lot of time helping with lessons/ideas/materials......

Books arrive 7-10 days later. Use the search engine for books not listed (hand picked by our community for EFL teachers).

Does the Kyobo in Gangnam sell things like play money, dice, games, and other useful things?
