Order : Box set of Thomas Story Library

huba

You need far more than just a UK address. Even with a UK address, you need someone to wait to receive the delivery from the Bookpeople. Then, to help to deliver it to HK for you.

There is extra people and delivery cost involved. Depending on the weight and size of the package, it may cost you more than the books. Last Christmas, I ordered GBP50+ books from theBookPeople and spent more than GBP70 in delivery with the help from a colleague in UK.

The above logistics involves money and better be handled by someone you trust (assuming he/she trusts you too). I'm afraid this request can hardly be satisfied in a public forum.

唔知英國有冇一些提供代簽收,包裹轉遞服務到香港的公司呢? 如果知道的家長請分享一下.

Are you okay to take the risk for having a free ride with a stranger? If a kind and helpful EK member told you he/she will order it and can help you but needs an upfront deposit of GBP60 from you, will you pay?

或者我們可以集多人去訂 , 分攤運費.

This will work within the group of people with mutual trust. Why don't you bring it up with the parents of your child's classmates? It will incur less risk and admin. overhead than doing it here.

It'd be ideal if there is an entrusted middleman. If EK is willing to do this business, I think most members are willing to use this service at a fee.

yahoo 有人係做呢樣，我以前問過，運費真的差不多等如書價，最後我都無幫襯。有興趣可以自己 search 下。

BK有個媽咪會幫人從英國訂書回港的，她會幫你大概計算運費。她曾幫我訂Charlie and Lola，但好像是兩年前的事......你去番親子王國好書分享睇睇。

Good to know that you have ordered the books directly without the need of a middleman.

我買左啦，我媽在英國，9月帶返黎。還特價買了這套Oxford Reading Tree的traditional tale stories，共20本。GBP9.99。

前兩日收到，阿媽馬上打黎話一大箱，好重，所以提醒各位如果要運回香港，郵費應該重貴過書的價錢。

好似都有幾多朋友對套書有興趣喎,

其實我係呢個website order: http://www.amazon.co.uk/
可以search by 呢個名: Thomas Story Library Ultimate Collection - 65 Books Boxed Set

但好多seller 都只會寄local, 要見到seller有 "International & domestic delivery rates"先會寄hk.

因為shipping cost 係per item 計, 所以就算同一個seller買2套就要俾GBP 14.00 (7+7), 所以想share平啲都行唔通; 同因為唔限重, 咁買成套書就平過一本本買好多la

少少分享, 希望幫到大家la
