Indi, I know that you use paperbackswap.com.  I was just wondering what kind of condition the books arrive in.  Are they really used or are they in pretty good condition?

i also used it. the books come in very good condition the site states rthat all books must be in very good conition with minimal wear. just recieved mine and was liek it was brand new. highly recomneded you can trade or u can buy credit 3 for 10.95 i believe and 1 credit is good for 1 book. cheaper than buying them in the store. books usally are a minimum of 5.00 a piece

Thanks Allison.  A friend of mine and I are thinking about joining but we were just curious about a few things.  You have answered our questions.

I have a question about what type of books you can post.. I have a few books i got at the library... they have the library stickers on them.. would i be able to post those to swap?  or  would those be unacceptable>

i believe you can . dont see why not id check the site to be sure though. when dogo to ppost the book before you do after the isbn is entered it gives you a list of requirements for the book

I checked the FAQ and it said you can do old library books... just to let you guys know

I just now saw this post.  I've received a lot of books that seem brand new!  However, since it is a used book site, a fair number of book are definitely in used condition as well.  The site has requirements for what sort of conditions are acceptable and not (not would include things like water damage, pages coming out, etc.) .  Most people seem to err on the side of caution.

I joined paperbackswap and now I am obsessed.  I didn't think I would be in to it but I have received a couple of books and they are in really good condition plus other people want some of my books so that helps me clear space on my shelves.  Great website! Anyone who hasn't tried it should!

And anyone that didn't put down a referring member (or hasn't joined yet), please put down littleacorn (my user name on there) so I get a free book ;-)  Us junkies need our fixeses LOL

Indi... should have a credit coming your way... i just put you as my referring member

Got it!  Thanks!
