I AM SORRY TO SAY BUT I'M GOING TO STOP SENDING BOOKS INTERNATIONALLY, EVEN ANGEL MOOCH REQUESTS. MY COUNTRY DISCONTINUED SURFACE MAIL AND POSTAGE PRICES HAD GONE WAY UP 6 TIMES MORE THAN IT'S ORIGINAL PRICE. THIS IS FINANCIALLY UNACCEPTABLE TO ME. I'M REALLY SO SORRY.
If you like to mooch a book and saw no condition note, please tell me via a message and I'll give you a description.I require two mooches per transactions, especially for books that are more than 500grams in weight. I can only send heavy books and hard covers locally.
Hello! Please read the condition notes and status page thoroughly. If I got your mooch request, I'll assume that the conditions and my status notes have been read and has been deemed acceptable. Most of my books are in good or very good condition, unless otherwise noted. My shipping schedule is in my bio page. My sendings totally depend on my fixed monthly postage budget. I also send books on a first-come-first-serve basis. I often can't send books immediately because of financial reasons. Please do expect some delays. FOR LOCAL MOOCHERS (UPDATED!):
I try to use couriers for local mooches, and Philpost for really heavy packages.Because of the recent price hike of local couriers, I'm sorry for insisting this but get at least another mooch.
FOR INTERNATIONAL MOOCHERS (UPDATED!):
I have the right to refuse sending heavy books.
I use seamails (i.e. surface mails) for sending books.
The ideal delivery time is 2 weeks. But because this is seamail, 4-6 months delivery time is also quite common, so please expect that too.I must insist that you mooch another book. International postage is really steep, I'm sorry to say.
I can also do angel-mooching but it depends on the weight of the book.OTHER INFO:
I have a cat.I REUSE packaging materials from my mooches, as far as people are allowed to by the POs. I wrap my books in plastic for water-proofing. Email me if you want to request special packaging; I'll try to follow your instruction, but only if I have the means to do so (more unnecessary packaging, more environmentally unfriendly, more weight, more postage).While there's no need to email me before mooching, I would also like to hear from you, especially if you have further questions on the book conditions, how the mailing will be done, what the weather is, how much I enjoyed/disliked the book, other recommendation, or just for whatever.

Before anything else, here's a message thingie if you want to contact me but are too lazy to login or go to the email page (not that I'm saying you're lazy, just saying that I am, and some people are like me too (sheesh, me and my big mouth!).
Alas, I'm still a lowly government employee. What's worse is that I still haven't finished my thesis so I can't end my agony in graduate school. My piles and piles of books are my only source of comfort. My only problem now is how to get the time to ACTUALLY read them. Hmmm...
