FYI - There are some PBS members who will remove BCID labels, stickers and cover stamps, etc. WITHOUT stating any restrictions in their profiles or requests. Some of us have a list of them from old forum discussions where they acknowledged this behavior. If you would like the list, feel free to email me.

There are also lots of wonderful PBS members! I have nothing against PBS!

mellonhead, I'd be interested in this list but I have a question. I don't know how to let someone know that a book is a bookcrossing book before I send it; or, if one of these people's names pops up when they request my book, what do i do? is it possible to deny sending a book to a member? does it get you bad feedback?
thanks!

Liz you can not send a book with no negative feedback as far as I know.

I had the list at one time but it was a hardcopy and it is currently packed up. I will try to find it for you though.

oops, sorry guys, I didn't think to check back in this thread. I'll send you each a PM with the list I have. I don't know about whether you get negative feedback if you refuse to send a requested book. I would ask support if they could fix that. Shouldn't it be your option?

Paperbackswap has some real neat features. Like my personal favorite Box O Books. This does cost $8 and all the money goes to running the site. Also if you do a Box O Books with someone you can save your credits and still get more than one book sent to you. I did this with someone on the site and I sent them 3 books and they sent me 4. The 4th book was an extra in case one of the books was too damaged. I have since made many friends with that feature.

I've sent the list to tribefan, appaloosatb and lizziwhizz. I don't disagree with you novelwriter. A lot of bookcrossers and bookrelay folks use PBS and enjoy it.

Thanks for the list! I'll be sure to check it before accepting requests now.

And I agree, I really like PBS. I've gotten a lot of great wishlist books through it.
