2006-09-19 Lost Books

At BookMooch, my stats ¹ are as following:

Books to send: 2
Books sent: 3
Books to receive: 1
Books received: 6
Books given: 5

Today I got back a book I had sent to the US. “Return to Sender...” – Elvis Presley on my mind! 😄 Strangely enough the site doesn’t offer me an appropriate way to react to this fact. In its world, either sender or recipient can mark the book as “lost”, but there’s no way of indicating that it was returned. Maybe I should file a bug report or something.

Update*: I went to the post office today and mailed out four books, including the one mentioned above (with the corrected address). It cost me CHF 55.10 – about USD 45. This time around, I think I got a book in every category:

||*Category*||*Price*|| ||:--:||:--:|| ||Grossbrief PRIO (0.204kg, ECO would have been 5.80)||8.80|| ||Maxbrief ECO üb. Länder (0.370kg)||10.00|| ||Maxbrief ECO Europa (0.657kg)||12.00|| ||Maxbrief ECO üb. Länder (0.644kg)||18.00||

The above is postage, the rest is packaging.
