What’s up next weekend? What about Amcorp Mall? Next weekend project, I suggest you to have a day out at Amcorp Mall! Trust me, it is worth and enjoyable to go there. I went it like few times before and last Saturday I have chance to walk at the place again as to accompany my roommate cum my ex-classmate at UiTM Malacca, Dalia, in her searching for books. If you compare to other popular shopping malls such as 1 Utama and Pavilion, this mall does not have many retail outlets. What appears best is on Saturdays and Sundays starting from 10am to 6pm, one of the main attractions of this mall is the first and the best flea market in Malaysia with items from antiques, records, collectibles, homemade food, old and new toys and many more.
So if you someone who are into grunge soul that adores antiques thingy, like old books, and someone who love into collections of old things, then Amcorp Mall is the right destination for you. From the dull outside looks and simple architecture of it, you might hear a voice blurbs out your mind that it is just not attractive place for shopping at all which actually first sound true for me. At first I thought it was never an eye-popping place to spend for shopping or either window shopping.
As for me, the only catching and ripping out my heart are the books selling there. Somewhere at second and third floor, you will find mega four book shops with mega sales price. To the 1st bookstore, well a magazine shops actually, you will find loads of famous oversea magazines (past edition) like Marie Claire and Vogue sell at the price from rm5!
Move to the 2nd bookstore, okay..maybe someone who appears nonchalant for literature will find what the heck they want to enter the shop? “It’s like a dungeon”, perhaps this is your typical first impression. Trust me the shop is unattractive at all with piles over piles of old dusty books cluttered here and there. But soon you’ll enter and discover it you feel like don’t want to go home! Like kids enter a chocolate factory. Like Charlie and the chocolate factory. As the shop keep constantly receives old books from people, I guess it answered why it is so packed, untidy and cluttered. As the result, the shop is just enough small to fit all the precious books which start price at RM 5 too!
And next to the shop is the shop with new books selling at affordable price. Guess what? For English novels they sell around only rm15 and above. Like before I bought Cecelia Ahern novel at MPH Curve, they cost me RM 32.00 but here it is only half-price at RM 17.00!What a saving. Those who bookaholic should come here, this place is perfect for someone crazy and crave for books and for a student like me who money-less this is even super perfectos! It just a heaven…a heaven of knowledge indulgence.
To my final chapter about books at Amcorp Mall. This is the last option if you don’t really want to pay out much money for books, there is a place called Rent-a-Book. This shop varies from the latest book to the very old one. Much much like library concept but the differential if you go to the library you’ll hardly sees the newest book, however at this shops you’ll find it.
My advice, you should never miss out to go to these bookshops and the entirely Amcorp Mall at least once in a lifetime!
