Hello,

Thanks for letting me know how you like to do book crossing. All I ask is
that you take into account that what works for one person may not work for
another.

The tool that I choose to present the books should not matter. For me the
bottom line  is that for $1.42 in postage, someone can a get a book sent to
them. There is no profit being made on the books and no sale is taking place
any more than a sale takes place when someone makes a list and asks for
$1.42 in postage. I have over 100 books to offer  (I believe all of them are
unregistered) and the traditional way of doing things will not work for me
this time. It would make my life a nightmare. Can you imagine dealing with
the PM's on that? I don't have time to stagger this or constantly repost
books in a list.  Perfectly good books will end up in the trash and that
would be a shame.

I understand what you are saying and I hope that you can see where I am
coming from. I promise that I will never make you offer books  like I do.
(said with a laugh not with a snarl :-) )

Have a great day!
Kecia
