Water Everywhere and Not a Drop to Drink

I've had over 25 (25.1, to be exact) Bookmooch points for ages, and they never have any books I want.

This is me annoyed. I wonder how much Bookmooch points go for on the black market.

Not seeing a lot I want there either.

I think the site has gotten too popular -- became a dumping ground for all the books nobody wants. Meanwhile, everyone's asking for the books that nobody has.

Some months back, Elle's parents cleaned out a hundred or so books they were going to get rid of. I nabbed 'em figuring I'd put them on Bookmooch or sell them on eBay, Half.com, or Amazon. Had the opposite problem -- most of them were either in low demand or super-hight supply already. And these were books ranging anywhere from a year old to 20 years old.
