Title: European Exchange Group join ups
Description: EuroXchange 2nd year - now closed!
giz-angel - April 4, 2007 09:14 PM (GMT)
Well this exchange doesn't finish until June, but I thought I'd see if enough people are interested in doing a 2nd year or joining..... This will start from July 2007 :D
So this is for European members only, and works that you send one book per month for 11 months - it runs for 12 months and on your month you get 11 books! Wishlist books are not a requirement but it IS a 12 month commitment, so please think it through before you sign up, as it's not good when people drop out halfway through :blink:
I will send reminders out approx 6 - 8 weeks before the 1st of the month for each participant.
Sign ups:
1. Giz
2. Sunlightbub
3. camis
4. kislany
5. Butterfly-noir
6. Bluejazzyfish
7. Purple-pixie
8. Candy-is-dandy
9. Pumpkin-head
10. Bigcurlyloz
11. abrokenstar
12. Intry

Really, you probably just need to dangle it in front of him like a carrot.
He's addicted, you know. He admitted as much in the BallySwappers sign up thread.

:o Whoa! I didn’t realize there is any discussion about me here :lol:
OK seriously, i think it will be too much for me. I’m already in three groups (third is about to start) and books I have from first group are still in my tbr pile (I am very slow reader :blush:)
Then I’m not sure how will those changes in shipping rates affect me because I usually don’t have books I’m sending. Namely (with few exceptions) I’m always sending wish list book which means that I have to buy online and with that increasing in shipping costs … and online buying is much cheaper in US than inside Europe.
Of course there is BookMooch as always but I can’t guarantee I’ll have points and if I don’t, what then? Perfect solution would be to send something immediately to your M-bags and to ask the one who is sending to wrap the book and write “EuroExchange” and then you’ll have to pray that you don't catch April 2008! So it seems it’s not so “perfect” after all…
I would love to join and be part of this great gang but I hate to be late with my book and therefore it might be stressful especially if I don’t find something that will fit your/mine expectations…
But thank you all :wub:

Hi Sunny! I've been on lurk mode for quite a while, I've been a bit down and very negative, you've all been better off without me recently.
I doubt if I'm going to Brighton, but haven't ruled it out completely. Need to decide quickly!

Wow... I just realized I put come one people instead of come on people. :lmao:
And I'd love to move to Europe, Giz. Or at least visit. Sadly... it's not in my budget. :sigh:

even better. When you come here you would have to stay because you'd spend all money to reach Europe (how clever!)
(and what’s the issue with bananas???)
PepperVL - April 7, 2007 08:56 PM (GMT)
I think the banana smileys are scary.
I know people here love them, but I really hate them and they terrify me.
