SRC Member RockLobster Posted December 27, 2004 SRC Member Share Posted December 27, 2004 Went Borders on Sunday and there is a 15% sale on books, DVDs and CDs until 28 Dec 2004. Those looking to buy marine reference books can try there. Cheers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

terryansimon Posted December 27, 2004 Share Posted December 27, 2004 where is Borders? it's at Liat Towers. opposite the shopping centre where Lido is. it's beside the old Planet Hollywood *now Zara* building. you can't miss it. huge glass dome by the side of the road. Liat Towers that is. Borders is inside Liat Towers. (= by the way, if there are no books that you want, ordering a book from Borders will incurr a $7 surcharge for delivery cost.

bloodlamb Posted December 27, 2004 Share Posted December 27, 2004 Any one knows where the marine section is? I counld not find any aquarium books at all there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terryansimon Posted December 27, 2004 Share Posted December 27, 2004 ask the info counter. I think it's near the hobby section, which in turn is near the kids section. you will stand a higher chance of getting American publications as Borders imports them directly from the US of A, as opposed to other bookstores who do their imports through local distributors.

bloodlamb Posted December 27, 2004 Share Posted December 27, 2004 Could not find any end up buying from amazon using vpost. Quite a lot cheaper. I got The Conscientious Marine Aquarist for about $54 (includes shiping) and got it within one and half weeks of ordering. Saw kinokuya selling for $77 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SRC Member RockLobster Posted December 28, 2004 Author SRC Member Share Posted December 28, 2004 i thought u were selling the whole BORDERS..hahahaha THREAD TITLE: BORDERS SALE! Sorry lah! Should be titled Book Sale at Borders! Hey Bloodlamb how do you get The Conscientious Marine Aquarist for about $54? Is Vpost a online bookstore or something? I'm also thinking of getting that book Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bloodlamb Posted December 28, 2004 Share Posted December 28, 2004 goto www.vpost.com.sg to check it out. BTW $54 is with about $10 shipping (shared by 4 books total shipping about S$40). Basically the way it work is that after you sign up with vpost, buy the books from amazon and take advantage of the free local shipping offer. Vpost has a forwarder in address in USA, you send the parcel there. They will forward it to you in singapore. My experience is that if they got it by friday singapore time then you should be able to get it by wednesday the following week. This should work for other online vender accepting credit cards with singapore billing address too, I never tried others before though.
