Finding "Remembering Hanzi" in China - eggcluck - 2012-08-10
Anyone here manage to find RTK2? I have been looking around but Chinese learning materials is few and thin on the ground and mostly in German.
Does RTK2 exist in China, have you seen it?

RTK2? Do you mean RTH2?
Actually, it doesn't matter as I've seen neither of these titles in China yet, even at the largest foreign language bookstore in town. Perhaps one of the majors will order it for you if you provide them with the ISBN? How about ordering from Taobao? Amazon? The publisher?
The alternatives are the decks on anki, the RevTH review site and the spreadsheet posted in the forum http://forum.reviewingthehanzi.com/viewtopic.php?pid=179844#p179844. With any of these, you'll have Heisig's ordering and keyword choices. And, if you've already finished book 1 or have any experience with the rtk books, you'll be well-equipped to tackle the book 2 list without further guidance from the author (which I think was his intent anyway.) hth

I bought my copy of RTH2 direct from the publishers (Hawaii Press). Took about 2 weeks to arrive at my place in Taiwan, reasonable price for delivery.

Also you realise Heisig only gave permission for this site to exist on the proviso that people studying here buy the book? if users start openly bypassing that, he could easily withdraw his support and have koohii.com shut down.
