Sadness | 
I'm about to lose my mind. I can't get books by Furrowed Middebrow or the British Library Crime Classics and from various other publishers and imprints locally, and Amazon is crazy expensive once shipping to Malaysia is factored in. This is so bad 😭 https://www.theguardian.com/books/2023/apr/04/amazon-to-close-book-depository-on...

jlhammar This is very bad news 😭 2y
batsy @TheBookHippie @eeclayton @jlhammar It's really been my life line for books 😭😭 2y
TheBookHippie @batsy 😭😭😭😭😭 2y
BarbaraBB I didn‘t know and I am shocked. And I feel so sorry for you. 2y
quietjenn I just saw this in a Goodreads group. It's super depressing and I'm only a casual user. I can only imagine how you are feeling. 😞 2y
CSeydel Oh no! 2y
JamieArc Oh no. I am so sad for you! I loved using it for UK editions, and Booker nominees that hadn‘t been released in the US yet. 2y
batsy @BarbaraBB @quietjenn @CSeydel @JamieArc It's a huge loss. I can only hope a similar alternative might come into existence 😢 I'm also surprised that we didn't at least get some advance notice of at least a few months. 2y
dabbe That, for lack of a better word, SUCKS. Hopefully Amazon will be as slow as Google when announcing their plans to end/close something. 🤗 2y
LeahBergen I know!!! 😭😭😭😭 Try Blackwell‘s. They ship worldwide for free. blackwells.co.uk 2y
Jas16 Oh this is terrible 2y
Aimeesue ☹️ 2y
batsy @LeahBergen Oh, thank you! I didn't know that. I see that they don't have the stock available online like BD 😢 but the free shipping will be helpful 🙏🏽 2y
batsy @dabbe @Jas16 @Aimeesue 😢😢 2y
BarbaraBB I wanted to make use of BookDepository as much as possible and ordered some books. One is coming your way. One I think you will like and you might guess what book it is 😃 anyhow, something is on its way 🤍 2y
batsy @BarbaraBB You are too kind, Barbara! Thank you so much ❤️ 2y
Centique This was a nasty ending for me too. I relied on it for any books I couldn‘t get from the library - lesser known authors and translated works. 😨 Thank you @LeahBergen for mentioning Blackwells! Will try it for sure. 2y
LeahBergen @Centique I‘ve been really happy with my orders from Blackwell‘s but they do take a wee bit longer to reach me here in Canada (compared to BD, that is). 2y
batsy @Centique Isn't it devastating! It's really going to hit me when it closes 😢 2y
