Michelle (michelle_mc) | 670 comments Good luck with this round! If worldwide shipping is an option I may play next time. Not that I expect to win but I have books I'm willing to share.

Melinda (craftymommy) | 766 comments I wanted to have some fun with this, so I made your names all pretty. This is them all printed out and lovely:


Photobucket



. . .
. . .
. . .

and then I cut them out, folded them, and put them in the pretty lemon box

Photobucket


. . .
. . .
. . .
I shook the pretty box, and shook it again. Then I swirled the names around and shook it again. Since I was at Starbucks chatting with a friend I had her pull out a name so I didn't feel the need to cheat because I'm nice like that.

And your winner is. . .

Daffodil (daffodil--ripcranberry) | 1058 comments Wow, thanks Melinda. Loved the paper, so cute. I'll pm you my address.

I'll look through my books tonight and let ya'll know what I've got in the morning. Sorry, still no computer access at home for the time being.

Can anyone tell me the postage difference on a book States v. International? Just to give me a general idea. If there's not an incredible difference, I wouldn't mind opening this up.

Jane (PS) | 24334 comments Congrats Daffodil! Great timing! :)

Melinda: Love the 'high tech' selection process! I;ve been wondering how everyone does it!!


message 164: by Dee (new)

Dee (austhokie) | 7316 comments mostly depends on the weight...I think I sent one book to Canada and it was a couple of dollars more - but nothing significant...

Jane (PS) | 24334 comments @Daffodil: Asia/Australia/NZ might be more of a problem but I don't know the freight costs... Anyone?


message 166: by Vanessa (new)

Vanessa (vanessamc) | 394 comments Daffodil,

Congratulations!!

Postage wise, Canada is usually reasonable. For example, a 7 oz book can get there for about $3.
That's first class since they don't have media mail to any international country. For every ounce, though, the price goes up, and once you get to a pound, you're in priority mail territory which is more expensive; I think it's about $5.00.

Other international, such as the U.K. or Australia is around $7 bucks for the same book. Hope that helps. If you need exact figures, you can look all this up on USPS.com.

for all you requesting the LJ books (Long Hard Ride) - she is prob one of my favorite authors, but i'm in the holding pattern for her new book

Daffodil (daffodil--ripcranberry) | 1058 comments I updated the list in Post #179 to this point. Please double check and make sure I have you down correctly.

Photojim, I think you put down the wrong book. Surely a historical fanatic like you would rather read Sleepless in Scotland. LOL


Jim son of Jim (formerly PhotoJim) (jim_formerly_photojim) | 5294 comments LOL! No I'm trying to branch out into new genres. There are only so many historicals one person can take.

AlbertaJenn | 0 comments This is an awesome idea! I have many books on my TBR shelf that are "at the bottom of the list" and I want to give to someone who will love them.

Please enter me for Long Hard Ride. I have heard wonderful things about this series!

I've really enjoyed them. I hope you like them too! Jaci Burton also has a PNR series with demon hunters, which I've really liked also. The first book is Surviving Demon Island.
