UPDATED 5-19-11

For this swap you will be mailing your partner a minimum of 5 historical romance novels (You can send more). I have a ton of these books and would love to see them go to a good home and of course I am always looking for more to read. Used books should be in good readable shape. I am keeping this swap in the USA only due to shipping costs.

I went back to the post office after getting some advice from Keylee3 (THANK YOU). I brought in a small box with 5 of the books and they said it would be $3.80. When you bring your books to the post office leave the box unsealed and let them know you want to send it Media Mail. (They might want to verify that it is just books.)

Gosh...I hate it. All the good swaps are always US only. Seems that I have to host one myself.

Sorry. The shipping cost would be very high to ship over seas. Feel free to do an international one or one for your region.

You could ship them media mail for a very low price, about half the cost of parcel post.

@Keylee3 how do you do that? I don't know anything about that. Thanks!!!

I will ask about it tomorrow when I go to the post office. I did look it up online. Thanks @Keylee3

In my neighborhood, taking an unsealed package to the PO would make for unhappiness - as there are long lines and waiting for a package to be sealed would slow the lines down even more. The PO will take your word for it that your package is books only (but can inspect if they wish). You may NOT mail a letter or enclose "extras" with the books to qualify for the media mail rate.

Thanks @user5311 I am new to swap-bot and all this shipping stuff! But I am learning with the help of other great swappers!
