For those of you who love PaperBackSwap (and if you aren’t a member, you should check it out!), they’ve recently started another club called Swap-a-DVD.
Similar to PaperBackSwap, when you sign up with Swap-a-DVD,
you post 10 DVDs you already own and would like to pass on to someone
else. After you have completed that, you are given 1 free DVD credit
which you can use to request one of any of the DVDs in their system.
Then, when anyone requests any of your ten DVDs and you ship them out
and the receiver notes that they have been received, you get an
additional DVD credit for each DVD you ship out. You can
continue shipping and listing DVDs like this and then choosing DVDs to
have shipped to you. You only pay postage on the DVDs you ship out.
Here’s the best part, though: when you refer someone else to Swap-a-DVD
or PaperBackSwap and they sign up and list their ten DVDs, you automatically get a free
DVD credit. I’ve gotten a lot of free book credits through PaperBackSwap this way!
Another
great thing is that you can set up a wishlist for your account. If they
don’t have a certain DVD you are interested in right now, you can add
it to your wishlist. Then, when someone else lists the DVD, you get an
email letting you know it’s been listed and giving you first dibs on
getting it.
