    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Looking for some books, USED or NEW. Will pick up if in long island area, or pay shipping. I will pay CASH/PAYPAL...as for herp-stuff to trade I am afraid I have nothing except 2 brand new 10 gallon fish tanks with working hoods/regular lighting, large vertical tree branch (fake, non-toxic), and large half-log hideaway (fake, non-toxic).

Rare/1st Edition/Special Edition
Mythology
Scottish/Irish Fiction OR Non-Fiction
Horror
Philosophy
Classics
Literary Criticism/Writing

I will pay a good amount above book value on anything used or new regarding the Hebridean Island of Scarp, Scotland or closely surrounding islands.

If you don't have any of these, but you want to get some books off your shelf, let me know what you have anyway! I am NOT looking to pay Barnes & Noble prices nor and am I looking to buy a $1k pristine 1st edition of Huckleberry Finn. Something in between, ok?
 
Have you tried paperbackswap.com? I've gotten some pretty interesting books from there, and it's cost me nothing but old books I no longer have any interest in. I swap my husband's crime novels he reads once then throws away for some good stuff.

I haven't tried that site by i know of the whole swapping thing, the problem is that I never want to get rid of any of my books... :eek:
Thanks though!
 
If you want another website like that, then you can also try swaptree.com. You can trade books, dvd's and games.

I understand the problem of never wanting to get rid of your books. I'm the same way with most of my books.

I just checked out swaptree and it looks good, i'll give it a try. Thanks!
 
No problem. I'm a member there myself. It's really a great site, and has a huge selection! If you need any help figuring it out let me know. :)
