  • PaperBackSwap turns Green Eggs and Ham into War and Peace

    April 27, 2009

    PaperBackSwap lets you exchange any book you own for one of the millions of books other users are offering. Swapping is simple. Take any book (paperback, hardback, or audio) you’re ready to part with and post it to your virtual library. Any time another user requests a book from your library, simply send it using labels printable from the website and pay only postage (about $2.40 via media mail).

    Once the book is received, you earn a credit. Use your credits to request new books and receive them in the mail about two weeks later, at NO CHARGE TO YOU! It’s a fun and cheap way to replace old books you’ve read with new ones. -JASON DON FORSYTHE

    PaperBackSwap turns Green Eggs and Ham into War and Peace


    Thanks for this great tip Jason! I posted a how-to book about running student newspapers that I thought I would never get rid of, and it was requested 5 hours later! The credit calculator is pretty cool too — it takes into account not only the cost of postage but also things like how much fuel you will have to use to get to the post office.
