I might use it if it only did X (please define X in the comments)

If only anyone would actually agree to ship me a book they've listed in swap!! I realize there isn't much GoodReads can do about this frustration but I had to voice it! I have shipped 2 books out so far. I've requested about 5 and each was either refused or ended up expiring. I understand that some requests will be refused. I had to refuse one myself because I couldn't find the book I had listed in swap. But I just wish I could get ONE! I'm going to keep trying.

Also, I want to be able to swap with people in other countries. There are some books that are difficult to get in the US and I would be happy to pay more to have them shipped from GR friends in other countries. ]]> <![CDATA[Gretchen added 'Dispatches from the Tenth Circle: The Best of the Onion']]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/75873335 Dispatches from the Tenth Circle: The Best of the Onion (Paperback) by Robert Siegel

My number is somewhere in between 100K and 10million. Why isn't there anything in between there? I would seriously consider it for 100K. We're only talking books right? I could read other stuff. The only thing really stopping me is my bookclub but there's a couple people who show up without reading. I really love my bookclub. ]]> <![CDATA[Gretchen added 'A Death in China']]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/80246109 A Death in China (Paperback) by Carl Hiaasen
