Hi! I don't know if any of you have had this problem? But I want to make sure I am handling this problem the right way. I had a book on my wish list and paperbackswap send me a link to a member who had one. I ordered the book, but it was canceled, so they send me another link to another member which I ordered and recieved the book. 1 wk-2wks later I got a pm from the member for the first book ordred that was canceled, and said she was new and she clilck on cancel instead of book shipped and she want me to click on the book recieve so she will get credit for sending the book (oh, buy the way the book still has not showed up and its been over 2 wks). I told her I already had the book from another member and didn't want her book because I already had one, and I would ship it back to her at her cost. I have recieved several pm's from her the last couple fo wks and still wanting me to give her credit when the book is recieved. I've told her no and that I've saved all her pm and will forward them if needed, a not to contact me on this matter anymore. And that I would pm her if the book does show up. So do you think I handled this new member in the right manner? Thanks |

The following is from the help docs. It seems that you are very clearly scenario #2. You may want to copy/paste this in a PM to the person that has been sending you the PMs:
I received 2 copies of the same book!These are the possibilities:
Scenario #1 (the most common scenario):
Scenario #2:

I'd send them the piece Lisa posted above if they contact you again about it. You do NOT have to mark this book received if it ever shows up since you already have another copy. If it were me, I'd make note of this member's name and, if the book ever shows up, I'd not open it and mark it "return to sender" so it will go back to her. She'll have to pay the postage on it again for the return trip but at least you won't be out anything to return it to her. |

I would have mentioned that they should have informed you of their error ASAP, before you had a chance to request another book. |

This scenario happened to me a few years ago with a new member. I did not send her a credit, but since I had extra and it was a WL-ed book, I figured I'd send her one any way after I received it. I never got the book. And, I doubt she ever mailed it. |
