Ok, I have some unpostable books. I am way not techy and I don't wanna break any PBS rules. But I don't know how to let eveyone know that I have these books. Can someone hold my hand and walk me through?? Mostly children's books. But I have a couple that I had posted not knowing how to get them here.  Ugh!

Sure, just list them here as Unpostable.

List the books right here (some people give a short description of why each is unpostable), and then name the deal you're willing to take. Or ask for offers. There are many ways to do it.

You might want to edit the Subject Line of this post with a summary, something like "Unpostable children's books, 6/1" or "Make me an offer"...

If any of your unpostables are Wish List books, you might want to put them in the long-running thread below which is dedicated for that. Good luck!

You can offer unpostable books here in the book bazaar and can ask up to the 1 credit per book. You can offer a deal on them too and that might make them go more quickly.

Just list out the books you have and explain the damage and what kind of credit you are asking or deal you are offering.

When someone PMs you about the books you can work out when the credits will be transferred. They can use the button on the Profile or Bookshelf or Friends list called Give Credits and they can PM you the address. Some people offer the damaged books free with a certain number of postable books ordered from their bookshelf, then you don't have to worry about the credit transfer and can print the label from the system. What you shouldn't do is post the book into the system for them to request (or to their Wish List) if it is damaged.
