Hi,

I have been busy and only able to use paperbackswap occasionally. . .previously I checked it often during the day and every time I refreshed new books were added.  Now, the same ones stay for a long time.  Just wondering if I have a browser problem, or if this is the way the site works now?  Someone told me they thought this was a glitch but it has been going on for a long time.  Thanks for your help!

Since PBS crashed last month, there is now a slight time delay between the books being posted and showing up on the daily postings. So, just wait a few minutes between your refreshes! ;)

I had asked R&R and they said there is an approximate 15 minute delay when the books show posted.  It sometimes goes longer. I believe it wasn't that way before, but it is now.

Thanks so much for your responses.  Do you think it is this way for good, or just until it is fixed?  I usually spend work breaks looking at the new postings. . .not so much fun when they stay the same! 

I thought it was just me. Thanks for posting about this.  I wish they were still "immediate."

Oh yeah I noticed that too. I thought there was some kind of time-delay in the system on purpose - maybe to let paid members get books first. Because by the time new books show up, it's like 20-35 minutes later and anything of interest has already been requested.

Paid members????           There aren't any paid members on this site!!!!!!!!!!!!!  

I was wondering about the delay, too...thanks for the explanation...
