I requested this book tonight...and this was the unable to mail message I got back thru PBS. How is it possible the book could even be on this members shelf if it was mailed out and then received by another member???
We're sorry, but the book you requested on 9/6/2011 'Numb Toes and Aching Soles: Coping with Peripheral Neuropathy (Numb Toes Series, V. 1)' by John A. Senneff cannot be mailed at this time.
The member from whom this book was ordered had this to say...
I only had one copy of this book. You asked me to mail it to another member. I mailed it, and that member received it.

It could have happened several ways. This is from the help center:
I got two requests for the same book!This happens for one of three reasons:
If this happens:
If the book is on a WIsh List and involved in a pending offer:

The member is saying there was a system glitch and they received a request for a book they'd already mailed. I've seen a few reports of this glitch in the forums recently - books that had already been requested and sent and books that people had never had being requested. Not a big deal, they obviously can't sent you the book since they no longer have it so put the transaction behind you and move on, hopefully there is another copy or another on becomes available soon. |

Oooohhhh interesting....ok then I guess something along these lines must have happened when that person posted their book. Sad for me!

A couple of times now I have posted a WL book and had it show twice under WL holds. One time it was to 2 different people another time it showed up twice for hte same wisher. It's been a long time since it happened to me, but stuff like that does happen. |

I had it happen to me two times, both times when I took my account off vacation hold. In one case, there were six wishlisted books that were double-posted, and in the other case, 3 books I had sent out months earlier and had been received re-appeared on my shelf when I took it off hold. Both of those incidents happened 2-3 years ago though and I haven't had any problems like it since, but weird glitches like that do happen from time to time. Cheryl |

Just tonight, I had a Live Help question about this very situation. Member received a request last week, mailed the book and tonight she received another request for the same book and she had to cancel because she obviously didn't have the book. Odd. |
