I don't mind helping with the translations if I can get hold of them. I'm not sure if the ones that my neighbourhood bookshop sells are of which edition though. Where do I check?
The 3rd editions have "新修版" ("New Revised Edition") on their front covers.
I'd have thought so too, but in every bookshop I've been to, there are still piles of old editions - some dating from the 1990s.Originally Posted by Ken Cheng
Bookshop owners surely have an ambivalent attitude to Jinyong's revisions. It depends if the profits generated by them compensate enough for the devaluation of existing stock, assuming they can still shift the old stuff.
