Welcome book-savvy shoppers!

It's a fact! Books are expensive in Malaysia. Bestselling items are never sold below RM40. You'd think that only the imported ones would carry a hefty tag, but no. Books penned by local authors can also burn a hole in your wallet. Even children books can be ridiculously priced.



Which explains why I, and possibly thousands of Malaysians out there, would go on a book bargain-hunting. I get all excited every time I enter a used bookstore the same when I go to Kinokuniya. I love books and I certainly love cheap books. And I know the lot of you who had entered this humble abode of a blog of mine are on the same hunting ground of finding cheap reading materials for yourself and your child.



So, welcome folks. I have listed down some of the pre-loved books that I'm willing to part with. Most of the books are in excellent condition. I dare say, if I hadn't scrape the price stickers off, it could be passed off as brand new.



Most of the children books, however, are brand new. These are clearance stocks from my hey-day stint as children reading/ learning and teaching aid materials trader.



I will be updating this blog from time to time, so please tag this blog as favourite and check-out for new posts. Ta!
