Read What Our Members Have to Say...

| Bookins is a readers dream come true!! | | I have just passed my 1st anniversary with Bookins and have been
fortunate to read over 50 books and trade over 60! This has been a
great journey for both of us and I have saved over $280 by joining
Bookins!!
Happy Anniversary Bookins! | | -Jerrie Bramlett. - Ringgold, GA. May 4, 2008 |

|
| Love Bookins! | | Bookins makes it so easy and inexpensive to trade books with people! I keep my bookshelf
clearer and spend a lot less money on one of my favorite pastimes! | | -Kathy Davies. - Barnesville, GA. April 22, 2008 |
|
| |
| Great Selection, Fair Prices and Outstanding Customer Service | | I have been a member for nearly a year and I can not say enough good
things about Bookins. I have been able to find some books I have been
seeking for a long time and also have received some newly published
books soon after they came out. I have found homes for books I have
finished reading and made room for more.The best thing about Bookins
is the Customer Service. Customer service is a lost skill these days but
these folks really know how to treat their customers in an efficient
and friendly way. I urge any book lover to give Bookins a try! | | -Julie Mink. - Kailua Kona, HI. April 19, 2008 |

| Most helpful thing to come along since the invention of the printing press... | | As an avid reader in a very small town I frequently exhaust the local
library resources and have to turn to Amazon to satisfy my reading
needs. I read three to four novels a week. And so even with Amazon's
reasonable priced new and used books my reading is an expensive
indulgence. I found Bookins and now can feed my reading habit and
still have money left over for nonessentials like gas, food and clothes. | | -gail stover. - livingston, TN. April 3, 2008 |

| |
| I love Bookins. I recommend it to all readers... | | I have thinned my bookshelves, and shipped some books to people
who really want to read them. I have saved a lot of money, ordering
current titles this past year. I am so excited, I have a stack on my night
table to be read. I don't have to worry about returning them to the library
on time. Or paying out constantly to get a current title. I share with my
daughter, then re-trade it, if it's not an author I am collecting.
Customer service is awesome! Within 24 hours you get a response,
and immediate credit if a book comes damaged. I only had this
happen twice, and they handled it immediately!
I feel like I have found a gold mine and tell every reader I know.... | | -Liz Manna. - Barto, PA. March 26, 2008 |

|
| I wish I'd found Bookins sooner! | | The first day I joined I had requests for THREE books! This is
fabulous! It is so easy to send the books out without having to go to the
post office. | | -Frances Griffett. - Chicago, IL. March 25, 2008 |
|
| |
| Bookins, what a great service. | | What better way to share all the books I have read over the years that
is just sitting around in a book shelves collecting dust. Not to
mention that I get the chance to read other books without the hassle
of driving 18 miles to the nearest book store hoping that they have
what I want. Thanks Bookins! | | -Dennis Lerro. - Swedesboro, NJ. March 24, 2008 |
|
|
| I Love This Service! | | I've been able to give my books and DVDs a good home and get
some bestsellers and DVDs in return. I love the ability to pass on my
rarely-watched or read items and try some new ones in return. The
customer service is amazing - they really go out of their way to ensure
my satisfaction. I HIGHLY recommend Bookins and have enlisted my
family and friends to sign up and take advantage of this amazing
program. Thanks, Bookins Staff and keep up the GREAT work!

| Bookins terrific for avid readers | | We have no bookstore in our town. Bookins provides a service that
allows me a large selection of books at a low cost. I read LOTS of
books. So even if a bookstore were available, I would prefer the more
reasonable prices on Bookins.
Before I discovered Bookins, I had only Wal-mart or garage sales from
which to get books. Now my world has expanded. Oh sure, I still hit
the garage sales sometimes, but those books eventually end up on my
Bookins trade list. | | -Suzanne Churchman. - Pahrump, NV. March 20, 2008 |

|
| sooo great! | | aFRIEND OF MINE TOLD ME ABOUT THIS SITE MONTHS AGO
AND I NEVER GOT AROUND TO IT BUT I AM SO GLAD I DID! AS A
MOM OF TWO YOUNG KIDS ITS TOUGH FOR ME TO GET TO
BOOKSTORES. THIS ALLOWS ME TO GET RID OF THEIR OLD
BOOKS AND GET THEM NEW ONES AS WELL AS ALLOWING ME
TO CHECK OUT NEW AUTHORS FOR SOO CHEAP! I LOVE THAT
YOU ARE DOING DVDS AS WELL NOW FOR THE SAME REASON-
- I CAN GET HIM NEW MOVIES AND NOT WATCH THE SAME
ONES OVER AND OVER! ITS SO EASY AND I AM THRILLED IT IS
A SITE THAT I HAVE BEEN EXPOSED TO! THANK YOU AND I AM
PASSING IT ALONG TO EVERYONE!! | | -Marni Garcia. - Bloomfield, NJ. March 18, 2008 |

| Greatest thing since sliced bread! | | With a sea of books around me, I finally decided that some just had to
go. I found Bookins one day and they came to my rescue. I was able to
move books on to other readers and I found books I'd missed over the
years as well as new books for a fraction of the current price. And with
the new feature of buying points, I never have to worry if I run out of
desireable books - I can always buy a few points to get that book I've
been looking for and not have to wait. Bookins makes the process so
easy! | | -Noreen Knox. - Pleasant Valley, NY. March 16, 2008 |
|
|
| Love the service and the sharing idea | | What a great idea-espically the dvd's. What a great way to swap items
with people and save a ton of $$ instead of running to the store
everytime I want a rent or buy something. Great website and I love you
guys! Keep up the great work. | | -PY - Lisle, IL. March 11, 2008 |

| |
| Really loving bookins | | In one week, I've sent out three books that were cluttering my
bookshelves.
I usually get my books from the library but on occassion do buy books
and trade them with a friend. But once I get them back, I usually don't
ever reread them again, so this is a great way to get some new books
and then send them off again.
It's a great and cheap way to get books that I can't get at the library. | | -Denise F. - Oakland Gardens, NY. March 4, 2008 |
|
|
| I love Bookins. | | I recently moved and almost gave most of my books to the library. Then I saw something on
TV about book swapping and did some research on the internet. I decided to try Bookins
and am thrilled that I did. I feel good sending my books to someone I know wants to read
them and am happy to get as good as new books at such a great price. | | RM - Salem, SC. March 1, 2008 |
|
| |
| I get the book I ask for | | I've tried a couple other clubs and their rules are so restrictive
that 1) a trade is rarely made or 2) you don't really get the books
you want. Bookins has two things that makes it different: they rate
books, so better quality books garner more points and 2) they police
the site, so you don't have to get involved in pointless "he said, she
saids" with other club members when you receive a damaged book. | | -Michael Brook. - Newark, DE. February 28, 2008 |
|
|
| What a pleasant surprise! | | I tried Bookins on a whim and was pleasantly surprised! No long lines
at the post office, reliable customer service and a great selection of
books! There is no "catch" and no hidden costs - just a simple and
convenient book trading site! | | -Julie, New York, NY. February 23, 2008 |
|
| |
| I Love Bookins! | | I look forward to checking the mail everyday to see if my next book has
arrived. It's fun to send books I've read on to the next person to enjoy. I
have not received a book that was anything less that in good
shape. Some of the books actually looked brand new. I highly
recommend Bookins! | | -D H - Seneca, SC. February 23, 2008 |
|
|
| Practical & Helpful | | What makes Bookins satisfying is that you pay shipping for the books
you RECEIVE, rather than those you give away. Their postage system is
worked out quite well, and their customer service is rapid & helpful.
I look forward to their future addition of DVD trading. My only
complaint would be the rather limited selection at the moment, which
will be remedied once more people join. | | -JW - Phoenix, AZ. February 21, 2008 |

| |
| Great Way to Recycle Your Books | | Bookins is a unique way to breathe new life into your books. The
books you no longer want find new homes at no cost to you! I've found
that it's the best way to pass along my books and get new books too,
at a very low cost and without leaving my house! | | -Lisa Dunlap. - West Chester, OH. February 16, 2008 |
|
|
| Bookins is Great | | I love bookins so much. I never knew what to do with all my old books,
and now I can just trade them here for new books that I want. It's
convenient, easy, and fun. I highly recommend it! | | -kelly roberts. - georgetown, KY. February 13, 2008 |

| Worth Repeating! | | Bookins Customer Service is the best in the world! Mitch, give them
a well deserved raise! You don't find such great people in the work
force today. | | Nancy Hardy 02/06/2008 |

|
| Don't need no stinkin car | | I have physical limitations and don't drive, so Bookins is the best thing
since pizza delivery! All my wildest literary dreams come right to my
door! Also dig the fact that I can get expensive quilting and crafting
books I couldn't afford otherwise. Love it!!! | | -Susan Cope. - Dallas, TX. January 30, 2008 |
|
| |
| What a Great concept!! | | Everyone is trying to be more "Green"...this is my
contribution....recycling books! What a terrific idea, especially for me. I
read books once and then they sit there. Now I always have a "new"
book to read....and I dont have to venture out in the cold and the price
is right!
thanks! | | -Angela Raible. - N Versailles, PA. January 30, 2008 |
|
|
| Awesome service | | I have had tons of books that were just collecting dust. I had pretty
much stopped buying books due to lack of shelf space. Now, I can swap
out my books and replenish them without the guilt of added book
shelves. This is an awesome service.
The bookins team has a great customer service too. Very responsive,
understanding, and quick. Keep up the good work! | | -Kalyan Vaidyanathan. - Acton, MA. January 29, 2008 |
|
| |
| great customer service | | I had shipped a book that never made it to its destination. Customer
Service contacted me to inquire what date I shipped the book and if I
had any feedback, I explained that I shipped the book well over two
weeks ago and was curious about where it had ended up because it
had never registered on the USPS tracking site. Customer Service let
me know that it was not a problem and that I was not responsible for
the shipment. They even credited my account for the points that the
book was worth. Excellent follow up on bealf of the Book Ins Team! | | -kristen denne. - Pittsburgh, PA. January 27, 2008 |

|
| Best Book Swapping Site By Far! | | I have researched many book swapping sites to find the best, quickest,
and easiest one to use. Great, High Quality, books shipped to my
home. The flat rate shipping for books makes this site the easiest to
use and the Point System on Bookins.com greatly outweighs that of
any other site I have heard of yet. The pre-paid, printable shipping is
another extra that makes the best use of my valuable time.
Bookins.com is so quick, easy, and affordable I would vote it the Best
Book Swapping Site By Far!! | | -Lori Duckett. - Jamestown , NY. January 23, 2008 |
|
| |
| AWESOME SERVICE | | This is a great service. Efficient, reliable and economical. It's good to
know my books are appreciated by someone who loves to read as
much as I do. | | -Diana Martinez. - Staten Island, NY. January 21, 2008 |
|
|
| The best online resource for books! | | This is the number one place to find books at an unbeatable price.
Sending books takes me 5 minutes to package and ship them. Printing
the postage has never been easier, it makes sending books out a blast.
I love browsing through books that have caught my interest or that I
have wanted to read. Also a wonderful place to find text books! | | -Paul Brycki. - Irving, TX. January 15, 2008 |

| Best Book Swapping Club | | I have been a member of several book swapping clubs and this one is

| What more could you ask for? | | I LOVE Bookins! It's the greatest! I can shop for books all day if I
want and occasionally actually get some! Also, I get rid of books
that are taking up space that I'm not using anymore. What more could
you ask for? :-) | | -Nyketa Mason. - Groveport, OH. January 6, 2008 |

|
| Love Bookins! | | How thrilled I was to find a website for book trading! It's such a hassle
to try to sell used books on e-bay and other sites. After all, I'm only
going to use the money to buy more books!
I've found books on bookins that I can't find anywhere else, and I've
found good homes for books I don't have room for anymore!
This is the next best thing to sliced bread! | | Maggie Magrath-A Bookins User, January 5, 2008 |

| Enjoyment | | I love to read however it was hard to get the books. Now with Bookins
it is so simple, and I get in return to trade my books to another that will
enjoy reading them as I had. Your idea is fantastic! No longer do I have
to wonder what to do with the books that I have read and enjoyed
thoughtout my life. This is a great place and I enjoy the books that I
recieve. Thank for your web site! | | -Sharon Collins. - Ovid, NY. January 3, 2008 |

|
| Best thing I ever did! | | I had mixed feelings joining this club but it has proven to be everything I
had hoped for with exceptional business practices. They seem to have
covered everything with much forethought for ease of selling books for
seller and receiver. You Rock! | | -Pat Layden. - Apple Valley, CA. December 29, 2007 |

| A Bookins Christmas | | I love Bookins, and when a sudden flurry of activity caused several
books to be sent to me, I was very excited. Little did I know that my
husband was snagging them out of the mailbox and stashing them
away. On Christmas morning, there was a large stack of new books for
me! I'd sort of forgotten about them in the rush of holiday preparations,
so having them greet me on Christmas made it all the more fun.
Thanks Bookins!

|
| I'm in love.... | | I love Bookins! I have been able to get such a variety of books through the site - from
nonfiction that I would never shell out the cash for to books for my classroom. I also love
being able to buy new books and not feel guilty because I know I'll get to trade them away.
Thanks, Bookins, you're doing a fine job! | | -Marie - Pueblo, CO. December 20, 2007 |

| |
| This is my favorite book site! | | I only became a member this year and right away I can tell that this
bookswap site is definitely different from others that I belong to. The
major difference is that I can now get the more popular books so much
faster instead of waiting for months and even nearly 2 years before I
see any sign of the popular books I wanted. Most of the time I get tired
of waiting so long and just go to the bookshop to get one.
The customer service is also exceptional. They respond very promptly
within 24 hours and is extremely responsive to fixing problems on a
timely basis. I have also made several suggestions to improve their
site and noted that they do listen and take suggestions seriously.
Bookins and the people that started and run this site, I want to say a
huge "Thank You" for all the wonderful and hard work that you do. I
have and will continue to highly recommend this site to my family and
friends. Keep up the wonderful work that you do. It is much
appreciated by readers like me. | | -Karen Notgarnie. - Aurora, CO. December 17, 2007 |

|
| AWESOME WEBSITE | | This is so much fun. Not only getting books you want for just the
shipping price but it's fun when someone wants one of your books too. | | -Jennifer Fiero. - Anaheim, CA. December 15, 2007 |
|
| |
| Fantastic! | | A friend told me about this site and I was interested in trying it.
I've been using the site for a few weeks now and love it. Shipping a
book to someone to receive points is VERY easy. I have received all
books put into my "want list" quickly and in good condition. I'm so
excited to have found a site that allows me to do all of this out of
the comfort of my home. Book trading has never been easier. | | -Chelsea - December 14, 2007 |
|
|
| I've said it many times . . . | | Bookins has the best service ever! They really, REALLY go out of their
way to please the customer. I recommend them to everyone I meet.
You don't find many companies these days that try to keep customer
loyalty as most are only concerned about the bottom line and raking in
new customers instead of keeping the old ones. Bookins is one of the
treasured few. | | -Gabrielle Yoder. - Tampa, FL. December 14, 2007 |
|
| |
| Bookins is Great! | | I've been able to pickup a bunch of books that I've been looking for and
had not found in my local used book stores. It's a great service. I've
gotten more than I've traded...but that's OK. I love the fact that we are
trading and no one who wants a book has to go and buy a new one.
Keep up the great work....and tell all your friends about the service! | | -Adam Schlachter. - Tampa, FL. December 6, 2007 |
|
|
| Hard to Believe--But True! | | During the Thanksgiving weekend with so many things to do put off
listing my latest contribution until well after Turkey Day had ended.
Within five (5) minutes after listing Bookins e-mailed with a subscriber
request. Now that is really something!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! | | -Ross Tucker. - Woodstock, GA. November 24, 2007 |

| |
| Bookins - just love it! | | I have been a member for about a month now, and I really like this
website. The postage is as simple as printing out the label. You can
enjoy just released books without much waiting. I am glad that
I "stumbled" onto this web site when I searching for used books to
swap. | | -Chris Zylema. - Grand Rapids, MI. November 21, 2007 |
|
|
| Bookins is the Best! | | Bookins is a fabulous book-trading site and a lot of fun to use. Books cost (in shipping fees)
about 1/2 of what they do in used book stores in Philadelphia. The Bookins staff is also
fantastic - they immediately respond to all inquiries and have instantaneously remedied the
few problems I've encountered. I can't say enough about Bookins. I encourage everyone
who loves books to join. | | -AG. - Philadelphia, PA. November 16, 2007 |
|
| |
| Great Service! | | I'm enjoying the Bookins service - and so are many of my friends! I
joined after becoming a member of a book club and love swapping as
I go through the books. Thanks for providing this - it's been great for
me, and my friends! | | -Karen Weiss. - Bay Harbor Isle, FL. November 8, 2007 |

| Book recyling | | I am enjoying my membership with Bookins. It is a very easy and
convienient way to purchase used books at a reasonable price.
Theselection and genre is very diverse, with something for almost
anyone. It takes at least 2 weeks to get the books you earned points
for. The only thing I would change is the ability to select the order in
which you recieve the books on you want list. Sometimes there are
books I am more interested than others on my list. The books I have
received have all been in great condition. Its a great way to shop for
books on line at a reasonable price | | -Vicki Heddle. - Tucson, AZ. November 8, 2007 |
|
| |
| Okay I know the usual story | | Okay, I know the usual story, but, I bought the book on late Saturday or
Sunday afternoon, it came on WEDNESDAY. I am in awe of bookins.
Just a user, not an owner. | | -Lisa Klein. - Ypsilanti, MI. November 7, 2007 |
|
|
| So fun! Presents in the mail. | | I am enjoying this service so much. I get the books I want delivered in
my mailbox (like a present) and it is so easy to send out the books I am
done with to someone else from my home mailbox. Lots of fun reading! | | -Elana - Sunnyvale, CA. November 4, 2007 |
|
| |
| Calling all environmentalists! | | I can't believe this really works! The books I received were in great condition and I feel
really good about finding my used books a new home. This adds a new dimension to
reduce, reuse, and recycle! If everyone joined Bookins, we may save a tree or two...think
about it! | | -BP - Dobbs Ferry, NY. October 30, 2007 |
|
|
| Bookins IS the real DEAL!!! | | Since I joined Bookins I have receved 19 books that are hot off the
press! I get them within a few weeks after they hit the stores. I have
shipped 20 books and I have only been a member a few months. I
cannot tell you how much money I have saved thru this program!
Thanks Bookins! | | -Jerrie Bramlett. - Ringgold, GA. October 28, 2007 |

| Keeping my bookshelves blissfully available for the books I truly love... | | As a librarian, I do not believe in owning books, except those that I
either read once a year without fail or wish to share with my children
someday. I do occasionally buy books, preparing for a trip or on a
whim, and I do receive them as gifts, but I hate having books I didn't
really enjoy or don't want to read again taking up space on my
bookshelves. So when I discovered Bookins, it was an easy way to get
rid of all those books that I'd bought but didn't want to move into
our new house, plus get myself a steady new stream of literature to
read! Using Bookins, I've now read my way through my favorite
author's bibliography, tried out three new authors, and discovered I
liked only one of them. Now, if only I could get my husband to get
rid of some of his several thousands of volumes that he never reads.... | | -Laura H. - Alexandria, VA. October 29, 2007 |
|
|
| I still think I'm dreaming! | | Finding and joining the bookins site has been like living a dream!
Books of every kind I can imagine, I make up searchs and find a book!
I am so happy, if I am dreaming, don't ever wake me up! | | -vickie j reese. - trenton, SC. October 28, 2007 |
|
| |
| Love it | | I love how easy and fast it is to use the website. | | -Julissa Lopez. - New Hyde Park, NY. October 27, 2007 |
|
|
| Best thing I've done | | So far I absolutely LOVE this site, mainly because it is so organized. I
can't believe how thorough everything is covered and easy to
understand. I am impressed by what they have created. Have sent four
books and two for me on the way(just received one, took two days).
Makes me feel good to know that someone will hopefully enjoy reading
the story as much as I did. Thanks for developing this site.

| Bookins Customer Service is THE BEST!!! | | We all know Bookins is Great!, Thank you, Mitchell for this great way
to trade our books, and a giant kudos to the best staff in the world ,
who work at Bookins. They have helped me several times, reply to my
emails almost immediately and ALWAYS, ALWAYS, solve my problem. Jake
is the best! Thank you Bookins and thank you to the staff. I wish
there were more people like you in the world of customer service!
Keep up the great job. | | -Nancy Hardy. - Las Vegas, NV. October 24, 2007 |

|
| Bookins Rocks! | | Yeah, I know that's old, old, old, but I can think of no better to say about
this organization. It's policies and procedures are excellent, customer
communication is fast and helpful (and understanding of us slow ones),
and the selection is fantastic. I look forward both to receiving and
sending, a win/win situation that I'll continue as long as this website
exists.
Thank you, Bookins!

| Bookins is Awesome! I never buy books at the bookstore any more! | | Since I have been a member, I've received all the latest hard-back
bestsellers just for $3.99 or $4.49 a pop. I've sent 24 books to others,
and received 15 myself. I love the whole system! | | -Marianna Steriadis. - Holiday, FL. October 22, 2007 |

| A LIFESAVER FOR UNDERFUNDED LIBRARIES | | Replacing lost copies of fiction books that are out of print and need
for reading classes has been very difficult and expensive for our
Community College Library. Since I discovered Bookins, In the last
six months, I’ve been able to replace 15 books that our students are
now using in their reading classes, at a very low price. Even if I
could locate the out-of-print book on sites such as half or amazon.com
the quality and cost does not match the pristine quality and price of
the books I’ve purchased from Bookins.

| Bookins Addiction? | | I've been trading books on Bookins for several months now. I'm very
satisfied with the quality of books I've received, and I love how easy it
is to send out my books. There is a drawback, however. The "Just
Arrived" list is truly addictive, callling me often to see what's new.
The "newest arrivals" sort option for my favorite subjects is a
dangerous thing, too. Thanks, Bookins - I think... ;-) | | -Carol S. - Westerville, OH. October 18, 2007 |
|
|
| My first Bookins trading experience | | Glad that I finally traded off a book. I have ordered several books from
Bookins since I joined, and I am very happy with the process. Will
continue to list books and also order books. | | -Pam Melhorn. - York, PA. October 16, 2007 |

|
|
| Great service! | | I've been using Bookins for the past few weeks. I was actually pretty
skeptical on whether I would receive random charges or badly
conditioned books. I was pleasantly surprised when the books I
received were in fine condition, and I'm not getting charged unless
I'm getting a book. This is a great way to purchase books
inexpensively for those who love to read but hate to pay full price.
The books will always be in good to excellent condition. Some recently
released books may not be listed, but wait and someone will
eventually. Thanks!! | | -Bee - NY. Sept 2007 |

| It Doesn't Get Any Better! | | I live in a very rural area. The nearest large bookstore or used
bookstore is about a 45 minute drive one way for me. Who wants to
deal with that in winter? Not me! I LOVE bookins. I can browse books
from the comfort of my own home. If I see one I like I simply add it to my
wishlist. Next thing you know it's on my doorstep. Not only is bookins
saving me from paying full price for books I want to read..it's also
saving me money in gas and headaches dealing with traffic to drive to
my nearest bookstore. Plus when I'm done I can relist the book and
earn points to get even MORE books! Like I said..it doesn't get any
better! | | -Tammy Brunner. - Lowell, WI. September 21, 2007 |

|
| Thanks Bookins! | | This site has been a great way to exchange books and don't have to go
to the post office either. I've been telling everyone I know about
it. | | -Dolly Bingham. - Bryan, TX. September 19, 2007 |

| |
| Great way to give old books new homes & add to your collections! | | Ever since I discovered Bookins in its early stages, I've loved it!
Simply the idea that there's a great way to 'get rid of' those books
you've read but perhaps simply didn't enjoy a new home, or maybe a
classic that you bought as a paperback but now want/purchased as a
hardcover. It's one of the best deals around I'd say! | | -Rebecca Garcia. - Brentwood, NY. September 18, 2007 |
|
|
| No fuss, no muss | | Great club. How can you beat it? The books I've received have been
like new. What a great concept.....I wish I thought of it! | | -Peter Abbagnaro. - Wallingford, CT. September 17, 2007 |

| |
| Bookins is the Best, Bar None! | | Bookins delivers -- and serves up with a big smile -- what other online
booktrading sites brag and boast about, but don't come through on: a
delectable selection of books, a smoothly consistent "order-in from
home", along with a generous side of oldfashioned customer service.
The icing on the cake? The wonderfully logical book points system!
Thanks so very much, Mitchell and team. :-)

| YOU HAVE TO TRY THIS! | | You will love how easy this is! What a wonderful idea! Don't pay full
price for any book and keep your bookshelf up to date. If you are a
reader, this is the only way to go! | | -Gail Gilbert. - Fremont, CA. September 12, 2007 |

| A Book Lover's Dream | | Your website is a book lover's dream. I have so many books and I
always wanted to pass them along to others who would get as much
enjoyment from them as I have. Your website allows me to do that.
What is really great is the ability to share with so many people at no
cost. | | -Renette Coachman. - Chicago, IL. September 7, 2007 |
|
|
| Fantastic Customer Service | | This site offers a wide variety of books whether you are looking for
something specific or just browsing. Far, far cheaper than a trip to your
typical mega bookstore and much more satisfying when you know that
your books are finding good homes as well. It is always such a treat to
open up my e-mail and see that a book from my list has been
requested, it is almost like giving someone a gift with the hopes that
they will enjoy the book as much as I did! Also, the customer service is
really quite outstanding. Service is quick and personal with easy
access on the website. No searching for help and wondering if your
message got to the right person. | | -Sara Lackner. - LaGrange, KY. September 5, 2007 |

| Long hot summer days are meant for reading | | I am having so much fun going to my mailbox and recieving packages

everywhere/ What a nice club to belong to. | | -Carla Chapman. - San Rafael, CA. August 31, 2007 |

|
| I love bookins.com | | I heard about bookins through one of my magazines. I have always
loved to read. So I checked out the website and I thought it wouldnt
hurt to try. Now I absolutely love bookins.com. It's a great way to
trade books without having to leave my house. I always find books
that I love. Thanks for the wonderful selection. | | -Jessica Therning. - Visalia, CA. August 30, 2007 |

| This site has saved my life! | | I was reading the Sunday paper when I came across this little article
about a site called Bookins.com. That Monday I immediately went
over to my daughter's to use their computer to investigate this site in
further detail and the partnership began that day. I joined up and
began listing my books on the website and I am happy to announce I
have "swapped" at least 25 books and received an equal amount in
return. My love for books all began in the Second Grade when the
teacher discovered I wasn't lying when I said I couldn't read. I had
slipped thru the system and past along to the next grade and couldn't
read my name much less the words in a book. She quickly set about
correcting that problem, along with my parents and sister's help and
now I read a book a day or at least one every two days. I can't seem to
get enough books and what is "enough books"? I have 150 plus listed
with Bookins.com and that doesn't even begin to cover the hundreds I
have piled and stacked everywhere in my house and my daughter's
house. I vow when I enter a bookstore that I am only going to look and
in the same breath, I am purchasing no less than four books to take
home and then list on Bookins.com. Bookins.com has saved my life
and my relationship with my children. I treasure my books and it helps
to know that there are people wanting my books, who will treat them
with respect and have the desire to read them like I did at one time.
And to top it off, they have books I can "purchase" in return and
Bookins.com has made the process of acquiring more books painless
to my pocketbook. Thank You Bookins.com for starting the site and
helping people like myself to be able to "purchase" more books and
then trade them for valuable points to get more. If anyone has the time,
check out my list of books for Trade, the selection ranges from murder
mysteries, alot of True Crime (my favorite subject to read about),
autobiographies, humor books and self-help books (Chicken Soup for
the Soul series), I have even started listing children books on the site,
since I have a good surplus of those, Thanks to my children and
grandchildren.
Thank you once again Bookins.com, your site is a wonderful and long
overdue needed service for the hundreds of people, like myself, who
enjoy reading books but don't just want to discard the book once
finished to the garbage or to a garage sale where the value in return is
usually a quarter, and Bookins gives at least 1 to 3 points for even
paperbooks. | | -Beryl Suit. - Concord, CA. August 28, 2007 |

|
| Bookins is THE BEST Place to get books! | | Where else can you find the books you want to read at one low price?
Where can you find such excellent service?
BOOKINS.com!!!
In over a year I have never had a bad experience with Bookins.
All the books I have ordered, and there have been A LOT, have arrived
in good time and in xlnt condition.
Life wouldn't be as much fun without you, Bookins! | | -Sue Berger. - Laguna Woods, CA. August 26, 2007 |

| I'm Saving Money | | I just love Bookins. It's so easy to use and I'm saving a fortune by
trading my audiobooks on line. If you use audiobooks, you know how
expensive it is to purchase new books. Bookins allows me to trade my
new books (and some older ones too!) and replace them with other
new releases that I want. Thank you Bookins): | | -Julia Etzel. - San Leandro, CA. August 24, 2007 |

|
| The greatest thing since sliced bread... | | I just wanted to add my 2 cents to the mix. I love Bookins.com and am
really glad I joined. I am an avid reader, and although I love the books I
buy, there are only so many times that a person can read the same
books over and over. On occassion, I donate the books to the library,
but if the library already owns a copy, then they'll just turn around and
sell it at their booksale. By participating in Bookins, I make my old
books work for ME! So far, I've listed a number of my old books and
already shipped off eight of them. In return, I've received eight other
titles that I really love and am interested in keeping. The process is so
convenient and easy. Thank you so much for this great service! | | -A Bookins Member, August 25, 2007 |
|
| |
| This is the best thing ever............. | | We are overrun with books and audio books in our household. My
husband and I are both avid readers and listeners. Since adding my
Trade List, I actually look forward to reading my email everyday, just to
see if "Someone wants my book". I love it! The more they want, the
more I can get and trade some more. Sure saves money. Thanks
Bookins. | | -Sarah Bryant. - Louisville, KY. August 22, 2007 |

| Terrific site | | I wish I'd known about this years ago! What a great way to enjoy
popular books without having to keep them at home forever, wondering
what to do with books I'd never read again! | | -Jill Porco. - Washington, WC. August 20, 2007 |
|
| |
| This is GREAT!!! | | I just joined and I am really enjoying my membership already.
The first book I received I had been trying to find for months. Within
one week it was on my doorstep. I also have already shipped out 3
books and earned points. I would highly recommend this site to
anyone who enjoys reading and saving $$$. | | -Karen Doughten. - Franklinville, NJ. August 15, 2007 |

|
| Great Idea! | | Bookins is a wonderful service for those of us who are addicted to
books. You're out of shelf space? Of course you're out of shelf space.
If you're not out of shelf space, you're not worth knowing. Now you can
get more shelf space by trading on Bookins.

|
| Bookins is Great !! | | I have been a member since January. I think I have sent 24 books on to
new homes and I have received 18. This is a wonderful service for
booklovers. You never even have to stand in line at the Post Office.
With the postage label you print, you just put the book out in your
mailbox. I try to keep my Trade List at about 100 so I have a better
chance of making trades. I look for mysteries and best sellers and
most of my trades are in thoses categories. My only problem is finding
enough time to read !! | | -Pat H. - Norman, OK. August 6, 2007 |

| |
| A Reader's Dream | | Fabulous service! Works exactly as described, no glitches, no
problems. I have received 3 books and sent out 4 since joining less
than 60 days ago. Love recycling books this way. | | -Peggy B. - Manchester, CT. August 5, 2007 |
|
|
| Love Bookins !! | | I love trading with Bookins! I used to just drop books I didn't want to
keep in the return slot at the local library. Bookins lets me send those
books to someone who is interested in reading them and I get
to choose new books guilt free (no price shopping, just postage).
Customer service is excellent and the
quality of books I have received is excellent also. Thanks for
providing a great site for readers to recycle. | | -Mary Ann Smith. - Azle, TX. August 5, 2007 |

| |
| Service and value! | | I read lots of books, and before using Bookins I used other book swap
services - they do not stand up to the service, value and ease of using
Bookins. Simply put, Bookins is the best! | | -Patrick McCabe. - Cordova, TN. July 31, 2007 |
|
|
| I LOVE IT! | | I have never been part of a book club where you get anything back
such as points or the communication from others. I love Bookins and all
that there team does to keep this site up to date and available so that
we as customers get to enjoy all of the trading! | | -tiffany haag. - fontanelle, IA. July 30, 2007 |

| This is the best thing to happen for books EVER!!! | | So we decided to buy an RV, and become full timers. Wonderful
lifestyle, except what do we do with the house full of stuff. Well my
library, which at one time was an entire room came with me in the
motorhome. We have books under pillows, under chairs, disguised as
end tables with lovely coverings , and tucked away in baskets, boxes
and coolers. Needless to say when I decided to weed through my
precious treasures and only keep a couple of hundred, a friend turned
me onto this site. I am only a week old and already have had 6
transactions. The points I earn I can use for a brand new just
published book, or presents for Aunts and Grandma. I love this.
Someone to send my treasures to who really wants them. Not thrown
into a library discard box or given to a thrift store. Thank you
Bookins. I am one of, if not, your latest biggest fan! | | -Nancy Hardy. - Las Vegas, NV. July 28, 2007 |

|
| The Most Amazing Book Trading Website I Have Ever Used! | | I found this website actually from the One Spirit book club. Someone had written a review
about a book featured there and mentioned that she preferred Bookins. I had never heard
of it, so I thought I would check it out.
Upon the first moment I arrived on the homepage to this website I was amazed! Free
books? There must be a catch! The only catch was shipping... but $3.99 no matter what
size or edition book?? I had to try this out.
Well I have been with Bookins for a few months now. I have exchanged books back an
forth. Let me tell you, I have NOT been disappointed! I get so excited when I receive and
email saying I have a book on the way, or that a new home has been found for one of my
beloved books.
I was doing book crossings for awhile, but never heard any reports on the books I would
lay out for people to take. This is much more fulfilling for a bibliophile like myself.
Keep up the great work!! I love this place, I love this place, I love this place!! | | -Kimberly Bateau. - Buffalo, NY. July 27, 2007 |

| |
| What a Deal | | This web site was mentioned in the newspaper or a magazine. I'm so
thankful, I belong to a book club and being able to get a book for $3.99
instead of going to the bookstore and payng full price plus tax. What a
deal I found. The books I have received are in excellent condition and
have arrived much sooner than I expected. I will come here to get my
books before going to the book stores or other places. Thanks for
your great service. | | -Dottie Clark. - Federal Way, WA. July 27, 2007 |

|
| I love this! | | I look forward to the emails asking me for a book, so that I could share
my books with others and earn points for new books in return! | | -Rachel Filomeno. - Coram, NY. July 26, 2007 |
|
| |
| Readers Unite! | | I Love it. I've listed a bunch of books from my overflowing shelves and
already received my first two books!
I'm hooked. Easy to add books! Easy to find books! It even integrates
with that library thing!
Thanks Bookins!!! | | -Kim Chabek. - Belton, SC. July 26, 2007 |
|
|
| A Lifesaver! | | Bookins is such fun! The website is immaculate, easy to manouver and a
joy to open and use. I can always count on "gifts" in the mail and I
feel powerful printing out postage and mailing out books. The customer
service is outstanding - don't know how you do it, Mitch! Thanks for
providing this fulfilling
service.

| Advid Reader | | I am an advid reader and love the fact that I can trade my books on line
with others. It is quick and easy and worth doing. In my first 72 hrs of
posting my books I have already sent out 7 of them. It is a win win
situation. | | -T. Hull. - Jacksonville Beach, FL. July 26, 2007 |

|
| A Great Idea | | I've joined Bookins after seeing a blurb is USA Weekend. Why not
give it a try? I was able to get a Bestseller that retails for about $30
and which I couldn't get from the library. Then, after reading, I traded it
to someone else and now this person is enjoying the book. What's
also amazing is just to see where all these books travel to and from---
all around the US! | | -Monica Montalti. - North Bellmore, NY. July 26, 2007 |

| |
| Books Not Bills! | | Most people are concerned with having one more thing to do, but
Bookins is an easy and fun way to give and get books in the mail. If you
love books as much as I do, I think you'll enjoy trading books in the mail
via Bookins. It is great to find a book in the mail box instead of bills! I
find giving good books away to people who really want them via the
mail is very easy & gratifying. I really enjoy using Bookins, it makes me
happy! Bookins is a great service, Thanks BOOKINS! | | -Jessica Lee. - Santa Cruz, CA. July 25, 2007 |

|
| Great idea for voracious readers. | | I have been a member for a couple of months now and am very
pleased with the service. I have "bought" about 8 books and I average
sending a book a week. The request rate has a lot to do with the books
and type of books you offer and between my wife and myself manage
to offer a wide range of books. and as my wife says it helps with the
clutter of books all over the place. | | Dave Warrick Ridgecrest, CA 7-23-2007 |
|
| |
| A Booklovers Dream! | | I am so excited about Bookins. Within 48 hours of joining I had
requests for 5 of my books, ordered 2 for myself and listed over 100 of
my books on the site!
The perfect place for book enthusiasts! I highly recommend this site. | | -Beth - Columbus Junction, IA. July 23, 2007 |

|
| If you are a book lover... | | ...then Bookins.com rocks. I have about 30 books on my trade list, and
have received about 12 from my wish list. I have sent out about
12...once you send the first few out, then the books start rolling in, as
long as you keep your trade list updated. The books are in great
condition, and take about 10 days to receive. They are new books, old
books, classics and reference books- no matter what kind they are,
they are $3.99 to receive and free to ship! If you have a printer, a list of
books you want to read and a stack you want new homes for, then this
website is for you! | | -Brandy Sprunger, CVT. - scottsdale, AZ. July 22, 2007 |

| Best selection | | I'm on three book swap sites. Bookins has the best quality books. I've
sent and recieved more then 20 books in less then a month. All the
books I've recieved are new enough to be on front tables at Barnes
and Noble. | | -Karen Horvath. - Bremerton, WA. July 19, 2007 |
|
| |
| Bookins is the best! | | I've been a member of Bookins for one month, and already I have sent
out and received a number of books. I highly recommend this
wonderful service. It's incredibly easy to use, and there is great reward
in sending books to readers who actually want them. I've found a
number of books for which I was looking, and I've been pleased at how
quickly I received them and how good their condition was. I would
never have had similar good fortune in a used bookstore. I particularly
like the fact that members can put books on "backorder" if they're not
currently available. One of my backorders has already been fulfilled!
With excellent customer service, as well, Bookins is a must for those
who love to read. | | - Amy - Granite Falls, NC. July 19, 2007 |

|
| Great Customer Service | | Am so glad I have discovered Bookins..What a fantastic way to pass
on good books....and so easy. Even when I had trouble receiving one
of the books(it was coming from Hawaii),the customer service was
terrific and answered my emails promptly. Can't say enough about this
web site..have told all my friends..

| Bookins is a blast! | | I love this website...my 2 school-age daughters and I are all avid
readers, and the books tend to pile up here after they've been read.
Now I can find homes for the books we've read, and find exactly the
books we want, all through Bookins. Much cheaper than buying new
books - and fun too! | | -Donna Ciccarelli. - Ashland, MA. July 18, 2007 |
|
|
| The best solution for a pack rat! | | I read about several book-swapping internet sites in a magazine about
six months ago. It became clear to me very quckly that Bookins was
the easiest and most efficient swapping site out there. The web site is
easy to navigate and it's great to search for books both by author and
by category. But what made me choose this site over the others was
the way I could print out postage and drop books off in any post office
box. The other sites require you to go the post office and pay for the
outbound shipping up front, plus you can't track the shipment. Bookins
handles all the details and tracks books from start to finish. I love used
bookstores but this is the easiest thing ever! Now I am less inclined to
hold onto books because I want to trade them for more! | | -Bookins Member, July 17, 2007 |
|
| |
| I Love Bookins! | | I read about Bookins in USA Weekend in June and joined right away.
Within several days, I shipped two books and ordered one. Now, after
a month of member ship, I have shipped five books and ordered five
books. I find it takes only a few days for the books I order to arrive.
Hardly a wait compared to the "hold list" ast the public library for books
on the bestseller list! And there is no better fate for the books I have
bought and read than to find a new home with someone who wants
them! You will love Bookins, too. | | -Adrienne Harrison. - Larchmont, NY. July 16, 2007 |
|
|
| Easy to get hooked on Bookins... | | What a great idea -- I've been a member long enough to know that it
really works. This concept is especially great for people who read a lot
of books, treat them with care, but don't have the shelf space to keep
them around. It's like a lending library with benefits -- they'll
backorder books on your wishlist, and you never have to leave home!
The shipping charge for received books is very reasonable. With only
a couple of exceptions, the books I received were in very good
condition -- much better than those you'd borrow from the library.
Reading a good book, then sending it back out into the world for
someone else to enjoy -- what could be better? | | -Victoria Carson. - Middleburg, MD. July 14, 2007 |
|
| |
| Quick and easy!! | | I only wish I'd come up with the idea for Bookins myself. I read two or
three books a week and am always looking for some way to share the
books once I've read them. Bookins is the best win-win solution I've
ever come across.
I strongly recommend that anyone curious about the Bookins system
give it a try. It is the best way to give and get books with almost no
cost. Give it a try!! | | -Steven Carter. - Athens, GA. July 14, 2007 |

|
| Bookins is the way to go | | I joined Bookins with a bit of skepticim. Are the able to do all that they
claim can be done by being a member. Thus far, all I can say is,
what a great place this is to swap books. The convenience of printing
your own postage and having the delivery confirmed is worth the piece
of mind that comes with it. I have told my friends and family about this. I
know, they too, will come to enjoy the benefits of being a Bookins
customer. | | -A Bookins Member, July 12, 2007 |

| A Wonderful Experience | | I live in a small town without a book store and a library that tries, but a month ago I was
forced to use a walker for a few days and couldn't get to the library and found this site!
What a deal that was...good things happen from bad things....
I'd always collected my read books and given them to the library and all of a sudden there
was a better way! I decided to try it and it's wonderful. Mitchell is very attentive to
problems and I have more books in my 'pile' than I can read right now. How great is that?
Plus the books I'd love to read are at my fingertips. All it takes is a few minutes listing the
books I'd like to trade and that is relatively painless!
I can't say enough good things about this plan! I love it. I love the concept. It's like
finding an online great used book shop!
Thanks, Mitchell! | | -Pat Stephens. - Minden, LA. July 11, 2007 |

| What a find! | | If book buying can be classified as an addiction, my family and friends
would have undoubtedly scheduled an intervention for me by now.
There were days I would choose a favorite author's newly published
novel over dinner/transportation/antiobiotics.
Then I found Bookins. Instead of paying over $20 for a book that will
be collecting dust for the next decade, I pay nothing for shipping, and
send off a book I've read and will be appreciated, all as easy as can
be (convenience counts). For $3.99 (shipping), a book "as good as
new" comes to my door within two weeks.
My new addiction is watching for my bookins emails; "someone wants
my book!" "A book is on its way!"....can't recommend Bookins
enough!! | | -debra stieglitz. - white plains, NY. July 10, 2007 |

| |
| Love Bookins! | | What a great idea! Swap books so easily from your home. I have
already mailed two books and received four. It is easy, quick, and fun.
Try it! | | -Geraldine Welch. - Newna, GA. July 10, 2007 |
|
|
| I must have searched about 25 other companies | | Then I found Bookins. I am so impressed with how easy and quickly I can print out the
shipping labels. Also I love how easy it is to navigate your website searching for books I
want and browsing for books I didn't even know I wanted. After perusing all those other
websites I knew I would be stuck running to the postoffice a lot. Also i have a lot of
hardcovers to swap and that gets more expensive shipping so when I found Bookins I could
see your value. I have already shipped out about 6 books and have several on the way. I
am looking forward to a long and satisfiying relationship | | -MICHELE SHERRITT. - CARLSBAD, CA. July 9, 2007 |
|
| |
| Wow already! | | A few hours after I joined Bookins, I received requests for two of my
books. I am also awaiting my first request for a book. So far, very
satisfied. | | -Rachel Filomeno. - Coram, NY. July 7, 2007 |
|
|
| Trade books with confidence! | | Wouldn't it be great to trade the books you've read for ones that are
new to you? And let someone else take care of all the problems?
That's exactly what Bookins does for you! Bookins handles the
postage, the delivery confirmation, and ensures the books you receive
are in good condition. It's simple -- this is the way to continue
reading a lot but without the expense of buying new books. | | -Steve Oliver. - Alameda, CA. July 7, 2007 |

| WOW - WHAT A GREAT IDEA FOR OBTAINING BOOKS | | I BUY AND SELL ON EBAY, BUT THIS BEATS IT ALL! ACTUALLY

| totally addicted! | | I love Bookins! I've already received two books, and sent out two of my
own. I'm so glad to finally have a real solution to pass on all the great
books I have. I would rather own books and read them on my own time.
This is a great way to get the books I want to read without paying
sometimes outrageous prices and shipping fees to get them!
Thanks Bookins.com! | | -Lea Ladehoff. - Lidderdale, IA. July 5, 2007 |

| A lifesaver......... | | In my recent move to Florida I brought all my books with me to
read.......now that I have time to finish books faster, I had no where to
place the books I finished.........then I found "Bookins - my lifesaver"
I look forward in opening my emails to see if I have someone who will
like to receive one of my books. I keep track of the states that are
answering my book ads, and have joy in knowing the books will be
going to a "good home" This is fantastic, both in shipping and receivng
new books. I love it.......... | | -Rose Zayas. - Cape Coral, FL. July 4, 2007 |

| Wonderful service | | I just have to tell you how impressed I am with this service you offer. I
have received quite a few books, all in great condition as stated. This
allows us bibliophiles to purge our bookshelves and add new volumes.
For many years I was a hoarder of books. But since signing on to
bookins, I have crossed over to the trading genre wholeheartedly. I
expect to find many new treasures on your website and hope that folks
are just as happy with what I have passed on as well.

| What a wonderful idea! | | Great way to read books you like and save money. Super easy to print
labels and mail books you have read. Send your books to someone
who wants to read them, and pick out books you want from a large
assortment. This website has exceeded my expectations. | | -Sharon Wells. - Madison, MS. July 3, 2007 |

| New bookins member | | Hello,
I read about Bookins in my daily newspaper, here in the High
Desert. I gave it a try and am very happy with this service. On ebay
you have to wait until the auction is over for a book and you don't
always win. You have to start all over. With Bookins I spend my time
reading a new trade, not waiting for an auction to end. I highly
recommend this wonderful service. Got to go I just got a new book to
read.
Sincerely,
Darline Gyurcsik

| Love Love Love this website! | | This website is the answer to all book lovers' prayers! I love to read
new books but hate paying 20 bucks for them at a store. Thanks so much
for the chance to save some money and discover some great new books! | | -Sarah . - Encinitas, CA. July 2, 2007 |

| I love bookins! | | I checked out Bookins after reading an article in the local newspaper.
This is the best idea ever for book lovers! I can get rid of my old books,
knowing that they are going to be reused. I love bookins! It is cheap
and very convenient. | | -Amber Scharbarth. - Chilton, WI. July 1, 2007 |

|
| This is great! | | This is the answer to my prayers! How to recycle my books so that
they may benefit others and still give me a chance to receive books
that I want to read at a minimal cost! I have taken loads of books to a
used book store only to walk out with under a $10.00 credit. No more!
I am in the process of posting my gently read books with Bookins! I
have been a member for about a week and I have shipped 3 books,
received 1 and have another on the way! Thanks, Bookins! | | -Paula Blacklock. - Fort Worth, TX. June 30, 2007 |

| "Bookins"...What a great find and so easy. | | Ever since I read about this book exchange in our local newspaper, I
have shipped out 10 books and received 4 for myself. What a great way
to read a book and then exchange it for another. "Bookins" does
everything for you. You just print up a shipping label, wrap up the
book, and mail it in your mail box. No driving to the post office and
standing in long lines. This is as good as Netflix!!!

| What a great idea | | I live in a very small town, and have trouble finding audio books. Both
my husband and I are avid readers, and enjoy listening to books as we
drive. I no longer have to drive over 70 miles to find good audio
books. Please spread the word, so we can have more books to trade. | | -Karen Pennington. - Kelseyville, CA. June 29, 2007 |

| It's like a Christmas present in the mailbox ALL the time. | | I've been very pleased with the quality of the books so far. I've
purchased many used books over the years, and some of them are in
poor condition. People tell me the books I give them look like they
haven't been read. I see there are many out there like myself who don't
eat and read at the same time, so thier books are in good shape.
I like the recycling aspect of the service. I even recycle padded
envelopes.
For the first time in my life, I can't think of a book that hasn't shown up in
the last few weeks, or is already on my wish list!
Don't forget to tell your book groups, those 15 Tell a Friend points are
fun to get!
Happy reading all! | | -Karen Horvath. - Bremerton, WA. June 29, 2007 |

| Just 2 weeks! | | Am emptying my bookshelves and making room for more! I'm a retired
professor of reading and have accumulated many, many books, given
away more, and ready to part with more! Glad I found you! I'm so
pleased that you have responded quickly to my questions. Have
mailed 6 books and getting ready to send another out today. You make
it so easy to ship books out that it's a joy to belong to Bookins. Thank
you for helping me find a home for my gently used and loved books! | | -Nancy Clements. - Leesburg, FL. June 29, 2007 |

| 4 books in one day! | | I saw this website in last Sundays paper and just signed up on
thursday. I listed a bunch of old books that I had. In one day I've
already had 4 people want my books. What a great way to get rid of
my old books and feel good about it! Plus - I've already got one book
on its way to me!

| This place is awesome! | | This place is great! I love that all I have to do is print the postage and
drop the book in the mail. No driving to the post office,no having to pay
out of pocket right away to mail a book. It's so easy! I've had 3 book
requests already,a book on it's way to me and I've only been a member
for a day! I also love the guarantee here. Most other trading sites if you
get a bad book you are just out of luck. If you want a place that makes
trading books easy and cost efficient this is the place! | | -Tammy Brunner. - Lowell, WI. June 29, 2007 |
