I've requested it for you Gerri.
@10 It's gone, Veritas_. :(
12> Got it and one for me! I hope it works out!
>13
Thanks so much Belladonna! Got my fingers crossed!
Please ignore my request at #14, I was very kindly informed that there was a copy available in Australia!
USA to Canada, please? I'm really excited to find this one listed again--the last one I requested was apparently sent in July but never showed up, and the sender won't reply to e-mails. http://bookmooch.com/m/detail/0380506092Thank you! - sporcloid BookMooch ID: villageidiot
Got it, sporcloid! Could you please leave a note on my profile with the book details and your BM id? Thanks!
21: I mooched it for you. I'll let you know how it goes
Looking for a UK to USA angel for this book: http://bookmooch.com/m/detail/0007120109It's been posted for a while, teasing me, with a note that owner will only send this one within the UK. I'd be happy to check angel's inventory for a second book or find a second angel-book in the UK to make up a package of two books.
#23 - WildMaggie, I've mooched it for you - will keep you updated - no need for a second mooch, as I'm flush with points :-)
I've mooched it, Jenni. Will you send me a PM mentioning the title? No condition notes, but the owner has a good record. I'll let you know when it arrives. 31Veritas_Edited: Nov 20, 2011, 8:22pm
Deleted request as noticed Jenni_Canuck had beat me to it!
#26 - WildMaggie, mooch has been accepted, but moocher will be sending in two weeks - hope you don't mind the wait!
32> No big hurry. It's something that my husband has been wanting for a while. He'll be delighted whenever it comes.
UK ---> US needed: http://bookmooch.com/m/detail/0786416084I contacted the user several hours ago about holding this book for me (since she didn't want to send it to the US), and she told me another UK user had already expressed interest. However, it's about three hours later and no one has mooched it. Would someone from the UK or Europe be willing to mooch for me, just in case she wasn't being totally truthful before? It's a book I really, really want; otherwise, I would not ask. Thanks!
35: Looks like a fun book. Just mooched it for you. It wasn't reserved or anything. What's your BM username?
>36
Someone got it already :(
>18 Got it. "Price sticker on cover and writing on first page"
Anyone else that need a US angel and still haven't been helped?
>39 thanks Annie, that's great
>40
Will keep you updated.
# 38 Grumble, thanks for trying anyway.
44> What's one more book, right? ;) Thanks! 48DonoghDec 5, 2011, 3:08pm
>47 I've asked for you...
Thanks AnnieMod!
Let me know if you would prefer to make it a multi-mooch... I can always find books in USA to mooch :)
No worries. If you find something you want, I will be more than happy to get it for you. If not, one book is ok. :)
Yay! Thanks! AH is one of my favorites!
Hoping for an Australian angel who'd be willing to send to Canada? I'd love to mooch this book: http://bookmooch.com/detail/0749955368The book owner has a good record, but says in his status that he will no longer send overseas because of finances.
>57: Got that one too. :-)
Thanks so much, Crimson-tide!
I really appreciate it!
> Annie, Thanks so much this is going to help me a lot in teacher's college that particular book is one I will need next semester and I'm thrilled to be getting them both. Thanks so much!
Missy
>64
Condition: "Closed school library copy, a few stamps but very clean and pages very good"
Got it.
>65
Thanks AnnieMod. Much appreciated!
Wild Maggie, I've received your angel book Sharpe's Havoc - it's listed and reserved for you!
69> Got it, Mare! I will just add it to the others. :)
US to NZ angel to help me get hold of four poetry books? (I get them shipped to you, and mooch as normal.) Ideally someone who is happy to post them on to me by airmail. Pretty please?
Thank you! Could you pm me your address please?
(Happy dance, happy dance!)
Sophie, you're the greatest!
>76
Got it. Don't I have a few more for you around the house or did I send all already?
>78 YAY!
Thanks, Annie. You have 2 others for me (Silent Enemy & Until Thy Wrath Be Past) -- ready-made travelling companions! 80AnnieModEdited: Dec 15, 2011, 1:30am
>79
:) yep. And you are welcome
#77 - *wanders off, blushing*
US to NZ angel for Kim Addonizio's Tell Me please? 83AnnieModEdited: Dec 16, 2011, 2:24pm
>82
Things the way are going, I will be shipping you a full library over there. Do I wait for that one and send all together or do you want the other ones as soon as they make it here?
Book Condition: Written in with pencil, good condition.
PS: Which is to say - got it.
Annie, I love you!
Up to you -- if it works out the same cost-wise, then sending them seperately means I get multiple happies ...
:-)
>84
Let's see how it works timewise then - if it is not here when the rest are around and I make a run to the post-office, it will go alone when it show up. :)
#86 - went to get it for you but unfortunately it's gone :/
Thank you for trying! I'm sorry to tell you I just did the same thing with yours.... :-/
#86, 88: Oh dear, that was me! I went through my wishlist yesterday to remove the books I'd received for Christmas and this popped up as available! I didn't realise that you'd already asked for it ... :-(
I'd still like to read it, but if you still want it, it's yours once I'm done- It'll got straight to the top to my TBR pile once I get it!
I've requested it- hope it makes up a little for the previous one! :-S
Thanks so much! :) I'm excited! 95LmanDec 27, 2011, 6:33pm
>94 E:
I've requested it for you but the member has not been on BM for 230 days...*sigh*
At least I can 'vacation' her and get rid of it, if there is no response - did it just show up now or has it been bugging you for a while? 97LmanDec 27, 2011, 11:04pm
> It is...though a different edition -E, let me know if you want to get that one (as she sends worldwide) and I'll cancel my request.
~ L.
@95 & @96 It was a book I recently added to my wishlist, I think, so it drove me crazy for only a short while... haha. Thanks for the find! I've requested the book from the other user so if you would like to cancel, L, that's fine! :) Thanks for trying and also for bringing the other copy to my attention- it wasn't showing up on my wishlist for some reason.
Cara / Carod :)
Do you have an ISBN for Caroline Cooney audiobooks. All I can find are hardback/paperback copies :)
102carodJan 6, 2012, 10:54pm
ZoeyEve after more research it appears the CD version was made specifically for people with perceptual or learning disabilities and may not be generally available (I found that out on WorldCat) *sigh*. The taped book service here for people with disabilities might have it, but none of our kids would qualify for that service I think. It is downloadable (as are 7 other Caroline Cooney books) from Amazon's audiobook service (audible.com), but I don't know if our school will approve that. The teachers already get too many things out of their own pockets.
#99
I've grabbed that for you Donogh :)
>106: Got them all, Jenni. She's a brand new user, as you're no doubt aware.
The condition notes are:
*As new, but a bit dusty from sitting around my study
*Very good - as new but page slightly yellowed with age
*As new
I still have two phantom mooches pending here for you anyway, so it's only going to cost you three points all up! :-)
@105 Sorry, Rise; it's gone.
EU to Canada angel needed for http://bookmooch.com/m/detail/B0051XTZMAplease and thank you! Book owner was set to worldwide and I mooched it but he rejected saying he was changing his status to ask first - EU only. I asked if he would hold it while I found an angel but haven't heard back yet :( 111westerJan 9, 2012, 1:05pm
#110: I have asked for it. If it's really heavy I might need another mooch to go with it, but I'm sure we can work something out. And I also hope you don't mind me reading it first when I get it ;-)
Thanks, wester! I have no problem with any of your suggestions.
115LmanJan 11, 2012, 1:45am
>114
Mooched for ya!
:D 118RiseJan 11, 2012, 7:04am
>109
Thanks for the attempt!
#119 I mooched it but then the connection timed out. BM seems to be really sluggish right now.
ETA everything seems okay now
#119 Our mooch has been accepted:
Thanks for mooching from me! I'll be sending the book in a few days.
FYI - the book is in French, just to make sure you know!
Thanks Jenni! And yes, I know it's in French :)
>123
Book Condition on the second one "Excellent condition". None on the first one.
Got them. 125RiseJan 16, 2012, 5:47am
AnnieMod, thanks for the speedy mooches! 129carodJan 17, 2012, 4:16pm
>128 got it. No condition notes.
126> That is annoying. I put in my request here for an Angel from Australia to the US for this book I really want because the owner was set to "My country only".
Now the book is reserved for someone in Iran and she is still "My country only". How does that happen?
Grrrrrrrr
>126: It appears to be reserved for someone internationally, even though she's set to 'my country only'.
Snap! Don't know - perhaps they're friends? Perhaps the other one emailed and asked? She's relatively new, so perhaps didn't want to say no... Very annoying, as I was just going to mooch it for you to add to the other.
>127: Got the cowboy book, Jenni. The Tolkien has already been mooched. ;-)
132> Thanks anyway. That is what I was hoping for too since you already have a book for me that needs a friend. Oh well, next time :)
#133 Thanks, Helen! Hang on to the others until this one arrives -- they can be travelling companions :)
>137
Only if you say please :) Got it. No condition notes 139sporcloidEdited: Jan 23, 2012, 5:59pm
UK->Canada, please, please, please.
Edit: Got it. Thank you.
- sporcloid
>141: Got it Jenn. Condition note: "My Copy is a soft cover Publisher Headline".
143BcteagirlEdited: Jan 28, 2012, 12:20am
A note to the person I am angelling for (Since last year) I am still waiting for the book, so we shall see. Is anybody able/willing to angel this cookbook from the USA to Canada for me please and thank you? http://bookmooch.com/m/detail/0811865991If it is heavy, I can smooch another point, just ask :)
>143
Ahem :)
It's a new user so will see how this one goes.
Thanks for trying, Annie.
ETA: An angel from the BM Forum snatched it for me!
Got it for you Bella. Condition notes say: My copy is a soft cover Publisher Harper Collins 2011.
152> Oh thats so great! Thanks!
142> I just realized I didn't say thanks for getting that book for me...so thank you too!! :) 156carodFeb 4, 2012, 3:16pm
>155 thanks for trying

158> I requested it...we will see how it goes... Australia to US, please? http://bookmooch.com/m/detail/0670916668I asked first but never got a response (even after a separate email) and now my reservation has expired. Thanks!
159> Thanks Bella. I got the Nick Hornby for you. No condition notes. Owner is a new user.
Mare, I've mooched them both. PM with the titles, please.
>165 I nabbed them for you. Want to fill a box?
Oooh, you temptress ... In the words of Oscar Wilde, I can resist anything except temptation. Yes please!
Will PM you when I get organised.
:-)
#166 - Mare, I have mooched both for you - the second book has condition notes which warn of a possible smell of smoke - trust that's okay! Will keep you updated as to progress :-)
#166 - Mareofthesea, your books are here and I've reserved them for you! 176sporcloidEdited: Mar 15, 2012, 10:31am
USA to Canada, please?
Edit: Thanks, dadena!
# 177 I have requested the book for you. 180carodMar 14, 2012, 6:46pm
U.K. to Canada angel for this book:
bookmooch.com/m/detail/1907519505a
Happy to mooch and second, and no rush. thanks! 181dadenaMar 14, 2012, 7:36pm
#176 I got it for you, sporcloid. I see the request has been up for a week but the book was still available so I assume you're still looking for an angel. Let me know if you've changed your mind.
>180 carod, I've requested the book for you, and I'll let you know what happens with it. 183carodMar 15, 2012, 6:18pm
>182 thanks!
184 - DubaiReader, I will try to get those UK books for you when bookmooch is back up. In an unrelated question, were you ever on bookhopper?
More generally, is there anyone who would mind acting as a US -> UK angel for me? I have about six books I'd like at the moment...thank you!
Just wanted to say that I have been DubaiReader's USA angel for quite a while, (had to finally stop due to grad school making me oh so poor), and she is a fantastic angel-ie! One of the best relationships I have developed on bookmooch, and a pleasure to angel for. :)
Thanks to you both, much appreciated :)
Oh, and yes, I am on BookHopper. I think I might drop it soon though, it's not very active.
Thanks Orangewords, for your kind words - the books you've sent me over the years have been just fantastic and I can never thank you enough for being my Angel xxx
Slightly off topic, but how are we meant to claim points from the Angel fund? I've never bothered to do it before, and can't see the info anywhere. 195BcteagirlEdited: Mar 26, 2012, 12:04am
Edit: Never mind, was gone while I was typing :P
>196 Cara; did someone get the book for you? If not, maybe someone could get it off PBS for you and send it to you :)
>193 - got them for you! Is there anyone in the US who could get this one for me? http://bookmooch.com/detail/1580052339(May well be gone before anyone gets to it but ah well, I'd love to read it so it's worth a shot I guess....) 199carodMar 31, 2012, 1:10pm
>197 ZoeyEve, thanks I posted it in the Bookmooch forum and someone there got it.
Got it for you, sporcloid - and it looks interesting!
Thanks, Sophie! Feel free to read it first, if you'd like.
Is there anyone in the UK who could try for this one for me? http://bookmooch.com/detail/0140274340I would be truly gratefull--I have had it wishlisted for ages and never seen one available before...
#208 - mooched 'em both for ya!
#208 - chelonian, both books have arrived - they were very badly packaged, but luckily it wasn't raining here (for a change!) so they've survived okay. Will list them for you now :-)
Got 'em, crimson-tide. First is a hardcover ex-library book. Is that ok? Will you pm me with the titles, please?
Thanks a bunch, Kay. :-)
Condition is fine - I just wish that people would list books under the correct ISBNs! PMing you.
#206: I've requested it for you, carol.
>214
Thank you so much, brochettes!

Any US angel willing to help me get this book from my wishlist that has become available? http://bookmooch.com/detail/0156031663It has a Holocaust theme and today is Holocaust Remembrance Day here... Many thanks in advance.
I hope someone else got it for you carol... when I checked it was no longer available.
>Hi Glenda! Not that I know of...thanks for trying, anyway
>222 Jenni, it's gone. :(
>223 It will come up again. Thanks very much for trying!
>225 Both gone already I'm afraid.
Could someone in the UK mooch Ondine: Summer of shambles for me please? I am sorry I don't have the link but my phone is not being cooperative. Thanks!
#227 - looks like it's gone - sorry!
Mooched it for you, Donogh! 233sporcloidEdited: Apr 30, 2012, 12:45am
Edit: Looks like this one is gone
US to Norway, please? http://bookmooch.com/0340371862I've already posted in the BM angel forum, but no one has responded in two days, so I'm hoping someone here can help me. The book is a paperback, but might be a bit heavy, in which case I would happily smooch an extra point for it. Thanks!
>236
I got it for you, but it's from a newbie who looks like they overextended themselves, so we'll see what happens.
PM me your BM user name so I can reserve it for you when it arrives.
235> Got it for you Bella. Condition notes say: Spine is cracked, pages yellowed, cover in good condition. Let me know if that's not OK.
Thanks, macsbrains! PM sent
238> Thanks! The condition is fine. I just really want to read that one. :) 241quiguiEdited: May 4, 2012, 6:07am
Nevermind, it's gone. 242sporcloidEdited: May 5, 2012, 5:42pm
Edit: Gone before I finished typing my request.
232 and 234, do you still want those books mooched? They're still available on BM.
244: yes please lydiasbooks :)
#229 - Donogh, your book is here - I've reserved it for you :-) 250macsbrainsEdited: May 18, 2012, 2:49pm
