Have you used that site?
I see that it is a one on one swap site - bit different from the other - just wondered if you had any success finding what you wanted there?

No, I haven't used Read it/Swap it - only mentioned it as a friend put me on to it recently.

My used/surplus fiction books tend to be Bookcrossed www.bookcrossing.com/ - much more fun!

I know a few people who use bookcrossing and love it. I won't join (much as I'd like to) because I can foresee clashes of interest as I'm a bookseller. If I didn't buy and sell books, I'd definitely take part.

I love the idea of bookcrossings and if I came across one I would want to pass it on. But don't actively involve myself either, *yet*, while selling books.

I use read it swap it all the time! It's a great site, and a great idea. Only costs you the postage. Sometimes people are giving away books free, and all you do is send them the postage after choosing from any (or all) of the books on their list.
I still sell books too though and it doesn't stop me buying them new from the shops or on e-bid (currently bidding on two now!). I just love books, and will get them from anywhere and anywhere!
