Frustrated
This is not a book or a post about a book I've just read, but I will be done with another book soon. No this a rant, because as the title says I'm frustrated. I'm am feeling this way because I ordered a book online in March, close to the end. Okay, it said that the books I ordered should be here no later than April 8th, and what date is it, the 15th. Wonderful! Yea, well I ordered 8 books. 7 of them have arrived, all at different times because they came from different sellers. I ordered used books. I prefer new books, but not when I'm going to have to pay $18 dollars for just one. So I saved money, around $60. Most of the books cost $2 with some change. I got 2 hard back books that would of cost $17 or $18 each, but got one for $10 and the other for $7. I now understand why I should buy used books more often. All of them are in good condition, some even looking like new. Back to the point, the book that has yet to arrive is Beastly. A book I've been wanting to read for a while. If my library had it, I would of not bought the book, but as I have said many times, my library sucks. Well at least to me. Every day I go to my mail box expecting a package that looks to contain a book. I am very disappointed every day. I am hoping the book arrives soon. I need to get in contact with the seller and ask where my book is. So this was my rant. I felt I needed to get this out. You can disagree with me about used books versus new books if you want, I like both.

California to Georgia shouldn't make a difference. I get books from my friend in TN ALL the time and even with media mail its less then a week. Make sure you leave bad FB so someone else doesn't have to deal with it.
Have you ever tried betterworldbooks or thriftbooks or a company of that ilk? They sell used books at cheap prices that include shipping in the price. Betterworldbooks even has a constant bargain bin where you can get 5 for $15 and that includes shipping. I've found both their shipping times to be good (for BWB) and decent for Thriftbooks.
