@blobbles : special thanks! you actually made me change my mind... the Nook from barnes and nobles I was looking to buy is actually cheaper on taobao.com (if you include postage, about 30% off), I would get it faster and with much less trouble... (i'm ashamed to say I didn't know this website... i'm new in China)
I'm just wondering how come nooks end up on taobao (considering B&N don't ship to any countries execpt the US) could it be a fake? or just directly from the factory (it's bound to be somewhere in China...)
Hey, I'm considering buying an ereader from the states, delivered by United states postal services (and then china post)
I know that I'm liable to pay taxes, but I have no idea how it works, can anyone explain the process to me? (does the kunming customs office call me, or is it the local post office? do I receive a notification at my place?
do I need to go check at the customs regularly? etc?
how did it go when you received goods here?
I just want to avoid the package staying in customs forever or at the post office without me knowing, or worse, I don't know, I guess I'm just starting to grow a bit paranoid...
The museum is closed (until 2015 because of the subway construction) the only place you can still visit is the shed, which is really amazing, you can sit in wagons one century old and be amazed at some ancient looking steam locos built in the 1880s that were still in use in Yunnan ten years ago
the entrance is free and it really deserves a visit. I'm really disappointed about the real museum though...
To find the shed just follow the tracks left of the museum, it will be on your right just before the entrance of a residence As has been stated before : it's hidden behind a tree, so look out for trees :)
