Do you prefer Bookmooch or Paperbackswap?

[Sharazad Moore]

...or maybe another book-swapping site?

I am a Bookmooch lover- (although my account is currently on vacation since I'm in the process of moving (ugh)). Still, I have recieved practically new hardcover novels from Bookmooch for free. And that makes me happy. I love getting mail the way puppies like being scratched.

My favorite swapping site is Frugal Reader but of the two you listed I like PBS better just because of the amount of wishlist books I receive from them. I also tried and ditched Title Trader. I had too many bad trades there.

I am a member of Bookcrossing and I love it.

I'm a huge fan of novelaction.com. I've probably gotten about 150 books from them so far and have found their books to be in excellent condition (I'd swear some of the hardcovers are new). I particularly like that I don't have to wait for others to pick my books first. I just order what I want and it shows up at my door - no sweat.

I have not heard of this site. I will go check it out now!

I love them both. I found that if I couldn't find something on Bookmooch I'd find it at Paperback Swap. So I tend to go back and forth between the two.

Bookmooch... but I've never tried Paperbackswap because they won't allow Canadians... boo hiss!

Has anyone tried Titletrader? I was a member, but nothing I wanted was ever available, so I found someone to take my Titletrader points in exchange for some BookMooch points!!

I use bookmooch, paperbackswap, and swaptree. The only thing I don't like about PBS is that you don't know the quality of the books before you receive them.

Jenn,
I love PBS. There are filters you can put in place that blocks unacceptable books. I have a block on books that come from a smoking environment and books that have writing in them. Since I have put these in place I have not had any problems with the quality of the books I get.

I was not impressed with Bookmooch though I have many friends who do like it. I love PBS. I bet I have received over 50 great books in the last two years. It seems to be a great site for fiction. I love non-fiction but don't find much on PBS. Anyone know of a good book swap site for nonfiction?

I love pbs because it gives me an option of either buying credits or swapping a book to get a credit. Then again I only really need credits when a wishlist book pops up. I used to be heavy on Bookmooch, but unfortunately I lost my job unexpectantly and couldn't send out 15 books (well not without jeporadizing my bills). BM put my account on hold so I couldn't spend my credits left, but still allowed people to mooch from me! So within two weeks of that my debt was almost 25 books instead of 15. >.> By the time I had a job and had paid back my various relatives for money borrowed for bills so that I had money leftover, it was too late ::Shrugs::
