Try Baidu.com.
There are even naughty people who copy and provide soft copies of text books for not much money, as well as hard copy.
Or Amazon China

Have no chinese bank account, so I can't buy them online.
The sums of money are so small. Do you have Chinese friends who would be willing to do it for the price of a burger.
Try Amazon China, I buy from them often and they ship COD. No need for a card and no risk cuz you pay when it is in your hand. Also, Amazon sells text books with a healthy discount.
Thanks but I'm also leaving town really soon, so might not be around by the time it would get here. So, stores in Kunming, anyone?
I can tell you where I got mine. Bought several there and I think they probably have the whole Boya series.
Large upstairs bookstore very near the main gate of Yunnan Shifan Daxue 云南师范大学. It's on 一二一大街, on the same (North) side of the street as the main campus gate.
The way I go is to ride bus #10 from Jianshe Lu 建设路 to the first stop on 一二一大街。 That is the 师范大学站。 Cross over the sky bridge 天桥, and backtrack just 50 yards or so. Lots of other city busses stop there as well.
The bookstore does not have a very large or prominent entrance. Nothing much on the first floor; most of it is upstairs. Its name is 清华书层。 Phone number (for directions if you don't can't locate it) is 5515176.
Thanks for the great directions! But earlier today I also checked out Mandarin Books on wenhua xiang and it turned out they had them too.
Glad it worked out.
Chinarens accept currency in denominations of burger?
