Swaptree questions for Alli

Alli,

Please say again how this works. I looked at the website and will sign up. I understand what they're saying on the website but would like to hear from an experienced user.

1. Do you always use the media mail price for shipping?
2. If not, what are your exceptions?
3. Is it OK to keep an item you have received from swapping? That is, must you always pass along what you received?

Yes use media mail. It is the cheapest way to send a book. Otherwise you end paying the Priority Mail price for a hard back and First Class for anything lighter than 13 oz. That is more than media mail.

You can send something first class if you like, but it costs more.

You can keep anything you receive. They do not need to be reswapped unless you want to. There are a few authors that I will not swap when I get them and others that I will reswap as I just want to read the book once.

Same with music, DVD's, and games.

Alli,

Thanks. That is very helpful. I think I'll spend some time this weekend picking out some items I can swap. What a great service!
