website selling seconed hand books to all over the world. I must say
when I first read this email on my N95 I was so suprised and happy.
Acturally the following email is from my second order. As I supposed,
the email didn't change except for the names of the books ( which have
been hidden by me for unknown reasons).
I'd appreciate it if the website has three or four different version
of order confirmation letter and send them randomly. (Maybe it is
exactly what they are doing and I, for some reason, just received the
same version twice.)
Anyway shopping online is not exciting except for when you think about
the gap between retail price and on-line price. What's more, a score
of book stores may offer u a better bargain.
One thing I want to complain about is the high price of Australian
books and CDs. They are so expensive, if you compare with their
'counterpart' in US.

Hello Chen,
(Your book(s) asked to write you a personal note - it seemed unusual,
but who are we to say no?)
Holy canasta! It's me... it's me! I can't believe it is actually me!
You could have picked any of over 2 million books but you picked me!
I've got to get packed! How is the weather where you live? Will I need
a dust jacket? I can't believe I'm leaving Mishawaka, Indiana already
- the friendly people, the Hummer plant, the Linebacker Lounge - so
many memories. I don't have much time to say goodbye to everyone, but
it's time to see the world!
I can't wait to meet you! You sound like such a well read person.
Although, I have to say, it sure has taken you a while! I don't mean
to sound ungrateful, but how would you like to spend five months
sandwiched between Jane Eyre (drama queen) and Fundamentals of
Thermodynamics (pyromaniac)? At least Jane was an upgrade from that
stupid book on brewing beer. How many times did the ol' brewmaster
have one too many and topple off our shelf at 2am?
I know the trip to meet you will be long and fraught with peril, but
after the close calls I've had, I'm ready for anything (besides, some
of my best friends are suspense novels). Just five months ago, I
thought I was a goner. My owner was moving and couldn't take me with
her. I was sure I was landfill bait until I ended up in a Better World
Books book drive bin. Thanks to your socially conscious book shopping,
I've found a new home. Even better, your book buying dollars are
helping kids read from Brazil to Botswana.
But hey, enough about me, I've been asked to brief you on a few
things:
