~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

An explanation for the numbers below - several years back folks were able to 'sell' their credits for whatever the market could bear...this was usually around $2 per credit....which was fine when postage ran aroud $2 per pound for media mail and less for 1st class mail under (perhaps) 6 ounces. Over the years the postage rate kept increasing until the 1st class postge rate made it prohibitive to mail any book below $3 per mailing and the Media Mail rate came closer and closer to the $3 mark...but still folks were able to 'sell' credits to folks for what ever the market could bear, which was still around the $2 per credit mark.

At some point money savvy folks (I'm not one of them) realized that they could just buy cheap credits and never have to post books to get the books they wanted....which left other folks with a steadily declining selection of books to pick from (I was in this catagory). The end result was that PBS set the minimum price for a credtit to be sold or bought was to be set at $3 a credit. This set off a tizzy, mostly among those who had bought them for $2/each and had zero books posted - said their
'rights' were being violated etc etc etc....the next group were those folks who sold their credits for less than $3 per credit because at that moment no one was buying or selling credits at all...then in the Discussion Forums were many folks complaining again about lack of sales and lack of buying (etc etc etc)...so I went public with my monthly sales or lack of sales by doing what is listed below - these are all of my credit availibilty month by month by month - credits sold, credits given away, credits donated for whatever reason.
As an aside (I like asides), I've mailed out over 14,000 books in over 10 years here. I've also given away (donated) over 1,500 credits for schools and folks in various needs. I also 'sold' over 500 credits in the below listing alone, and have no concept of how many credits I've sold before all this came up.

All this was to 'show' the nay sayers that credits were being sold and bought by members after the change over.
...and I've kept up with the month by month stuff ever since.
