Help Center - How long does a sender have to mail the book after accepting a request?

Search Terms:

The sender has 7 days after the date of acceptance, in which to mail, and mark the book as mailed

  • If a book is not marked mailed by the deadline
    • The request will cancel automatically, and will be passed along to another member offering a copy of the same book.*
      • the requestor will NOT get an email when this happens.
      • the requestor will be able to tell that the request has passed along because the request date will have changed.
    • If there is no other copy of the book available, the book will go back onto the requestor's Wish List and the requestor will get the credit back.
      • the requestor WILL get an email when this happens.

*Exactly the same things will happen if the sender clicks or on a request.

Note: The deadline for each transaction appears in RED on the right-hand side of the transaction on the sender's account.
