Default Paper Back Swap

I came across this site that looks interesting and may help me trade some of my paperbacks sitting on the shelves for something I want to read. I was just wondering if anyone has used them before and what opinions if any they have.

I have been hemming and hawwing over the this one. One of my newsletter sent me it as money saving tip this past week. We have a ton of older paperback that might be worth it. They don't sell on half or amazon for the more than 75 cents.

Where I grew up there was a local book store that you could bring in your old paperbacks, they would give you credit for those that you could buy other paper backs with. Add on top of that the huge comic book selection plus role playing games and other geek parafanalia it was a great store and hasnt been hurt by the big box stores. See if there is a store like that in your area.
