Wondering if this would be allowed before I decide to sell off credtis.  Thanks.

Can I offer a free credit with the purchase of, say, 10 or so at $3.00 per credit?

No, because that would effectively make the price per credit under $3, which is no longer permitted. $30/11= $2.73

Under the Red "Sticky" on the BOOK BAZAAR page (Selling Credits etc) it states:

Subject: **Buying or Selling Book Credits? READ THIS FIRST**

As of today, July 6th, 2016, there will be a minimum price for Book Credits sold between members of $3 per credit.

You are free to buy and sell Book Credits as always, but you may NOT sell or buy them for less than $3.00 per Book Credit.

  • That also means you may not offer or ask for goods (for example, Gift Cards) that work out to less than $3 per Book Credit.
  • That also means that "incentives" or "bonuses" of any kind must not be offered or asked for.

Sellers, please note that the title of your post must have the price in it, for transparency.

This change is meant to keep the club healthy and working for everyone.

Members who become aware of any infractions should contact us ASAP.  FYI - the rule will be strictly enforced!

This policy goes into effect in all three sites today.

Thanks,

The PaperBackSwap Team
