Collins Cobuild 5th Edition is now out of stock in Korea

I am using Collins Cobuild Learner's Dictionary Consice Edition,

and I felt that I need to buy the Advanced Learner's Dictionary.

But it has been sold out in all websites, bookstores near here.
And I don't know how to order at(in?) the overseas website like amazon..,

Maybe, I think, the 6th edition will replace 5th edition,.
(There's no 6th edition in Korea now)


Anyway, I don't use CD, and even if I need it, I can borrow it from my friend who bought the last stock in the bookstore few weeks ago..

So the point is, is it ok to use 6th edition if I only use the book, not cd ?

Why not try ordering something from Amazon.com or ebay?

I bought 'The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie' from America. I bought a French DVD from France. It was not available in the complete version in the UK because the Briish censor did not approve. Unfortunately, the French version was in French and not in French and English. On that occasion, I bought it from ebay if I remember correctly.

OK, you culture vultures - how about:

"The Unbearable Lightness of Scones" by Alexander McCall Smith


The name is similar to the much more famous - "The Unbearable Lightness of Being" by Milan Kundera (1982), first published in 1984 in France. Film (1988)

Yes, that's good idea but,,

Recently the Won(Korea)-Dollar exchange rate has been raised rapidly.

It was about 1 Dollar = 900 Won but now 1 Dollar = 1300 Won.

In addition, including tax and delivery charge it become much expensive.
(About $80 ?)

I can't afford it anyway :P
