PaperBackSwap.com Review

Recently I found an AWESOME site called Swap-A-Book. There you post a list of books you are willing to swap with other readers. Once you post 10 books you are given 2 "credits". You can then use those credits to request any books posted by others. You earn more when your books are requested and you mail them out. Once they are received, the requestor will notify the site and you are given credit. It's great! Basically you are getting a book for the cost of shipping (about $2.13 media mail for a single paperback). You simply agree to ship any books that are requested from you... no need for credit cards or paypal account etc. So far I have received 9 books - all in excellent condition - in a timely manner. I've mailed out 13 books and I think I have 5 or 6 credits still available!

This is a fantastic site for anyone who loves to read but hates paying $9+ for a paperback or $25+ for a hardback book. For $2.13 to $2.50 or so you can get quality books and then swap them for more once you're done. Eventually you'll have a constant stream of new reading material coming in!

The site has some other wonderful features - a forum, auctions, etc. It's a fun place to hang out!
