How hysterical a charity shop map!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Best you buy yourself one of those old lady shopping trolleys....lol......... think of the exercise you will get as well kill two birds with one stone.

actually i DO have an old lady shopping trolly (and i'm only 35) much more practical if you don't have a car in a big city

and what's funny about a map for all the charity shops? i think it's just practical and helpful! people are too quick to throw things away, i shop at charity shops to help relieve the burden we put on our world as a whole, not because i'm mean with money

Everybody else - why is it that when I find a good book worth swapping and ask to swap, people don't wanna???? I have 100 books on Swapit now...and a blimmin good selection if I do say so myself!!!

Taught OH to list stuff on Amazon tonight(as if its hard!!! honestly men!!!)so he can beaver away at the boxes of books while I am at work. Managed to swing another coupla boxes of FREE books tonight...I LOVE FREE BOOKS!!!!!!

Earlier on I had someone request a swap...went through their list and every one was a penny book...started to wonder if it was one of us lot since they were extra good at describing the books condition...and COULDN'T GET ON FORUM TO CHECK!!!!!!!!! :eek: All was well in the end when one of their last books listed came up as £6.50

Too hard to put photo on I get stuck so I only sell on amazon. Only book I ever sold on ebay wasn't worth it. Am after a easy life!

Is a guy selling a job lot of 3, one of which I have and he's only getting 2.50 for the lot! and £5 postage, too much hassle for me, ISBN are about all I can do. Better to swap for something I can sell. OH moaning about number of RISI he had to take to PO today and there's already another 13 waiting for Monday!

Is he posting worldwide???? Just as long as you weigh it and get it right and they pay for the correct postage...offering airmail abroad often swings it for you cos people don't want to wait 8 weeks or longer for surface.

Anyway don't think it'll take long for someone to swap with you so you won't have to worry!!!!

Am only just able to cope with uk postage let alone worldwide. Have posted almost 60 swaps out since Monday so hopefully they'll be all gone by next week!

Have taken them off now. Was trying not to be sentimental and getting rid of most of my books. My dad used them when he was restoring a beetle for me before he died so now they're going to be coming to the new house. Haven;t had a beetle for 14 years and they'll be of no use to me, but they'll have to stay now.

i'm about ready to give up swapping books on RISI because i think they're valuable... the last 4 books i have had are in horrible condition and nothing was mentioned in the listings which is shameful! one book had very obvious water damage and looked chewed on :eek:

one book i got awhile back had felt tip scribbles on every page :mad:

you sound as bad as me - tho i am finding it harder to find previousy unlisted books on swapit

i see some of our members relist their items - does it drum up much interest?
