VBF Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 UPDATE on Pattaya Beach Books - 15-Jan-2018 Finally managed to speak to Mike, the erstwhile owner of PBB. Apparently he's moving up-country permanently and would like to sell his books for 180,000 Baht. He might accept sensible offers. As he’s not on the ’net at present, he’s asked me to suggest people call him. If you PM me, I'll forward details. Mods: hope this is OK - this is not a business but just me doing a favour for an old mate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roger101 Posted January 15, 2018 Author Share Posted January 15, 2018 Glad to hear that he's OK. I just hope somebody buys them and they are as good as running a book shop as he was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

champers Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 There is DK Book Mart just off Beach Road on Klang. They have English and German second hand books for sale. Not an enormous choice or range but you should be able to find something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reason I didn't recall it earlier, is that it sells mainly new books and they're quite expensive, as are their second hand ones. As you rightly say, they don't have a massive selection. The other shops being discussed in this thread are actual second-hand book shops, some of which do (or did) part-exchanges.

champers Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 Yes, book exchanges are thin on the ground. I miss a good library. I would patronise one but I think it would need to run on a commercial basis here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
