I always use Amazon.com in Korea.

Plus they have many used books for a fraction of the regular store price. Even the new books can be bought for discount prices.

I bought several Lonely Planet guides cheaper on Amazon.com than if I would have bought them here in Korea at the bookstores.

Yes, you can, but make sure they ship the item internationally. I usually order from Amazon Marketplace, and the sellers there ship faster than Amazon.

So waiting 5 weeks for delivery just to save 50 won is better than shopping at Whatthebook huh? Makes sense.

Amazon.com isn't that slow, especially Amazon Marketplace sellers. I can get stuff usually within a week and a half, but then again, I usually order DVDs, books and CDs in that order. I'm not sure about bigger items.

Don't care about the $ or shipping time, I just don't feel like going to whatthebook.

...and what yaya said, at Amazon I can get the book within a week delivered to my door.

I like amazon too. Way better than going to or communicating with that jerk of an owner of whatthebook.
