FUCK OFF THESE THREADS ARE SHIT NO ONE CARES GET A FUCKING JOB AND BUY YOUR OWN BOOKS YOU LAZY SHITSTAIN

>>1381064
YEAH, WHAT CAPSGUY1 SAID, I FULLY STAND BEHIND HIM.

YOU FUCKERS ARE POSTING THESE GIFT THREADS ALL THE FUCKING TIME NOW.

>>1381073

>Man, it's almost as if it's a time of year when people give to one another

>>1381080
>>IMPLYING I GIVE A FUCK ABOUT CHRISTMAS.

>>1381080
But why is it almost this time of year? That's a ridiculous excuse for all this bullshit; people should be generous and caring throughout the entire year.

>>1381087

You're right! We should do this all year 'round.

>>1381087
>almost
*only

bump for loving one another

>>1381087

I've seen these threads before, regardless of the time of year. They're just popping up more now cuz it's the holidays, I reckon.

Haterz should post theirs. They obviously are starved for love.

>>1381064

I think "shit-stain" should be hyphenated.

These threads make me fuzzy :)

I LOVE HOW THEY KEEP BUMPING, BECAUSE THEY'RE SUCH DESPERATE SCUM.

>>1381207

bumo

>>1381213
YEAH, LOVE IT.

>>1381207
Only one person has posted their wishlist so far though. The OP was just posting those who had already gifted.

>>1381219

Actually, I don't think any of those people in OP's post got gifted back, iirc the last thread

>>1381219
YES, AND THIS IS A NEW THREAD. I HAVE NOTICED THE BEHAVIOUR I DESCRIBED IN OTHER THREADS, WITH THIS ANON ALREADY HAVE DONE SO SO EARLY AS FURTHER EVIDENCE.

>>1381222
I know, they gifted other people and hadn't been gifted themselves, I think was the point.

>>1381223
Honestly, I think they might just be doing it to annoy you some of the time, since you always respond.

>>1381222
Yeah, I believe that's true. Mines in the first post and I've not received anything.

>>1381242

Yep, same here.

Worth a try ..

I'm 17, just finishing up school and totally, totally without a source of income. I've really gotten into reading, but I just have no money. I really like how this works, and I'm pretty sure of myself that once I can, I'll be helping my c/lit/s out.

>>1381286
Here you go, friend :D Should be arriving Christmas eve, so Merry Christmas to you!

Not many Canadians on this board, so I suppose I understand if this goes ignored,

Just finished my last exams and it'd be nice to have something to relax with.

>>1381303
!!!!

Thanks much! I loved On the Road, I really hope the same can be said for this.

<3 thanks; more reason that /lit/ is the best.

Oh, by the way, Dusty and Nikki, your books shipped today. Nikki, yours will be there later today. For some reason, yours will be there the 23rd, Dusty.

I don't really want anything as much as I used to, seeing as I have a job and I'm not a poorfag now, but I wouldn't mind something. Enemy of the People by Ibsen would be cool, seeing as it's cheap.

Three days for christmas, god...i'm getting sad.

http://www.amazon.com/wishlist/1NCCJV9N74WCW/

i'll buy a credit card pretty soon so i'm going to gift too, but maybe after christmas.

www.amazon.com/wishlist/25YIVMWS4C0MF

>>1381343
WHY ARE YOU SAD? I'M NOT EVEN IN THE SAME COUNTRY AS MY FAMILY, AND I'M FUCKING HAPPY TO ESCAPE CHRISTMAS!

FUCK OFF WITH THE SOB STORIES, FUCK YEAH

>>1381343
i'd give you something but i'm poor myself

>>1381352
I'm getting sad cause i hate the end of the year. It's nothing about gifts

>>1381361
thanks

>>1381382
no problem bro have a merry christmas

>>1381382
WHAT DIFFERENCE DOES IT MAKE TO THE REST OF THE YEAR? IF YOU WERE UNAWARE OF THE CONCEPT OF 'YEARS', YOU WOULDN'T BE CRYING LIKE A BITCH.

>>1381382

I'm not sure if it's exactly what you mean but I'm pretty sad that I can't spend New Year's with my family this year.

>>1381386
That's sad, but it's not for that...i always get a lot of nostalgia at the end of the year with all those fireworks and this song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rId95N2teUc&

That's why i usually party with my friends and drink a lot...god i'm like the Lt. Dan of forrest gump...

>>1381385

Worst song ever

Thanks /lit/, you're the best. Have a nice day. c:

aren't we all...

I have exactly $0.33 left in my account. If anyone can find anything on Amazon for that much without shipping and handling, consider it yours. Tis the season and all.

(Would especially love Carnosaur or The Store)

Gary: Your books should get there Monday or Tuesday.
Allison: Expect yours around the 2nd or 3rd.

>>1381477

damn, if i had any money I'd get you Neverwhere. Such an amazing novel.

>>1381501
is it? I might be able to get a book or two after the holidays when my paycheck comes in, I keep debating whether or not to put that on the "List of Books I Really REALLY Want" heh

thought that counts c:

buuuuuump

Why is it only through amazon? What the fuck man.

>>1381576
most well known/easy to use I imagine

>>1381580
It's bullshit. I don't want to go make an account on amazon and a list of books just to participate in this. I've read in other threads that you can't gift from used booksellers on amazon either. This is crap. Not only that but these threads seem to proliferate on weekends and holidays when the kiddies are home from school.

The whole trend is becoming insufferably annoying.

>>1381587
Then don't be a part of it? Plus you're misinformed, you still can gift used. It takes ten seconds to make a new account and maybe five minutes to add some books. If you can't be bothered, you don't need to be gifted. Some of the people on here get to buy a book for themselves only two or three times a year.

>>1381596
Yeah, all these poor middle class college students with internet connections that can barely afford to buy a book more than two or three times a year.

Go climb a rope.

>>1381642
Why you mad though?

isnt Amazon under boycott??

>>1381676
BECAUSE YOU FUCKTARDS ARENT EVEN TALKING ABOUT LITERATURE, AND THE MAJORITY OF THE SHIT ON WISHLIST THREADS ARENT RELATED TO LITERATURE. YOU FUCKTARDS KEEP BUMPING WITH YOUR SOB STORIES AND BULLSHIT, WHILE MOST OF US JUST WANT TO TALK ABOUT BOOKS.

YOU WANT SOMETHING? WORK FOR IT, YOU WHINEY LITTLE BITCHES. CANT EVEN BUY YOURSELF BOOKS, WHAT FUCKTARDS.

PROBABLY THAT'S WHY PEOPLE DONT LIKE THESE THREADS? NOT MAD, JUST CAPSGUY.

>>1381681
THESE KIDS STOOP SO SLOW TO BEG ON AN ANONYMOUS BOARD, WHAT DO YOU EXPECT FROM THEM?

>>1381685
But why does it bother you SO much? Is it more pathetic that someone asks for a free book, or someone can't resist saying how much they hate a thread every time it comes up (which is only a few times every now and then, there's 15 pages on /lit/ and you can't ignore a single thread on the front page?)

>>1381691
give the guy a break, he has to work all year doing sums in a tiny office just to fly out to Osaka to get drunk in a place that isn't the local pub for a change. He's bound to get a little irritated when he sees people get things they haven't worked for

>>1381694
I THOUGHT I WAS A STUDENT.

capsguy do you ever write w/o caps? Like if you don't want someone recognizing you?

>>1381701
NO.

>>1381712
THAT'S A NICE CHANGE FROM PEOPLE WHINING ABOUT MY POSTS GIVING THEM HEADACHES.

Posting a useless post just to further clutter up this shitty thread

bumping to push back to top to fill thread up so we can start a new one (still got 3 more days till christmas)

http://www.amazon.co.uk/wishlist/1P8AIO08XXVSA

ill be honest, someone was kind enough to gift me a book last time. any and all gifts are much appreciated ^_^

bump to get two wish list threads on the front page

Finally, I have over $200 to spend on recreational books - and it's all going to me!

http://amzn.com/w/2OJOFPAWVBI1C

Ok, I know some people will see this as begging but I'm really poor at the moment (I literally have ZERO money) and really need the books on this wishlist (all of them). A couple of them I actually need for my classes and if I don't get them I'm at risk of failing and loosing everything I have worked so hard towards :(. I'v also recently been diagnosed with cancer of the jaw, and my dad died this year which further puts my life in jeopardy. If you could find it in your heart to gift me these books, I would be so thankful.

Thanks to my friends at /lit/ =)

>>1383056
ok i will stop begging, you mean faggot. why dont you want me to receive appolinaire's poems?!

>>1384481
>>1384656
I'm not even gifting anymore. You bump for your own lists, and I can't even tell who you are because you're anonymous. So fuck it.

>>1384716
They may be bumping due to the fact that no one ever did gift back any of the gifters in OP's post, which I'm assuming was the point of having a second wishlist thread.

>>1384716

Who are you?

>>1384721

This is it in a nutshell. This topic was created by OP to get people to reciprocate for the people who gifted and got nothing in return.

>mfw none of the original proven gifters from OP's post have received ANYTHING AT ALL but new guys keep passing by begging for X holy reason and seem to get what they want

>>1384730
And yet, still no return for them.

>>1384761
>>1384755
this

I really don't understand, if I'd gift anyone, it'd be folks who like doing it. Not random newcomers going "baby please don't go".

>>1384755
>>1384730
>>1384761
>>1384773

And yet, all talk and no gift?

Allright then let's all get in a donation mood, at least for the sake of christmas & the new year ? I'm gifting one of them if enough people are doing it.

>>1384778

>>1384761 here

My list is in the OP

>>1384778
I'm >>1384730

Same deal as: >>1384782

>>1384780
>I will only gift if others do

Not very generous...

>>1384786
>>1384782
same, I'm in OP

>>1384788
I don't want to do it alone and end up like the folks in OP. It's just an unfairness I refuse.

>>1384797

Those guys are up there cause they gave generously.

People shouldn't be gifting with the intention of being gifted back. That's not the point. If the idea were for everyone to receive equal reciprocation, we could all just buy books for ourselves. The idea is for those who are generous and have a bit more than others to give to those who are in need and don't have much money to spare at the moment. Then in the future, those who have been gifted to in the past, when they have some spare money will give to those who are in need, and those who gave before may be in need then.

The karma of a wishlist thread is long term, and those who are particularly generous and well off will likely never receive full recompense. I have given far more than I have received, and I will probably continue to do so without expecting anything in return.

>>1384816

I agree, just it would be nice if people who have already given to people who might not be able to reciprocate are gifted by others who ARE in a position to give.

Getting gifted in return makes me feel like my gifting was cancelled out.

http://amzn.com/w/1D4DPABC45JYE

Why don't Amazon accept Paypal? I'd be able to actually buy stuff from them if they did

>>1384945

Are you saying two good acts cancel each other out?

>>1384953
Paypal is owned by eBay, a competitor of Amazon.

>>1384954
It's still a good act, but the point is to give something someone without getting anything in return. Otherwise I could just buy myself a book. That's not a gift, it's a swapsy.

>>1384967

Oh wow I wasn't aware of that. Thanks.

>>1384971

Well, I guess you can give again?
For me, the experience is discovering new literature; when people share lists it's a great way to discover new literature.

>>1384977
Different strokes I guess - I agree that's a fun part for me too.

I'm not gonna sit here and complain, like "Arghh you gave me a book, you've ruined the experience!" LOL I don't mind swapsies, I guess I just look for those people that really can't afford to buy it for themselves like I was at that age.

On the plus side, if I gift someone and they gift me back, then I could afford to gift someone else right? Since the money I was going to spend on the book they bought for me is now free.

>>1384977
I just realized I said the same thing you just said.

>>1384973
/lit/ - learn something new every day :)

I take it Amazon.com is the best place to get books then?
I'm trying to get some for a friend

>>1384997

Yeah, by far. But make sure you're on your correct region's site or else shipping will be ridiculous.

>>1384997
IDK about best as /I've/ only used a few other ones, but definitely easy and not ridiculous. See, all of the used bookstores near me sell paperbacks at $4-$15 anyway so there's really no price difference for me. I buy used almost exclusively for myself, unless there's simply not a copy in good enough quality. If you keep your eyes open, make sure you click on ALL versions of that book (underneath the product title, on some of them it'll say [Paperback], [Mass Market Paperback], [Paperback June 15 2005] or whatever) then you can usually find a low price for the book. Some are even $1-$3 & free shipping if your order is above $25.

>>1385011
Just one more question.
If I buy 4 books, do I have to pay individiual shipping on all of them, even if they're going to the same place?

Because I'm a bit weary on getting a friend used books.
Not that he'd even really know the difference, but I just want to be sure of the condition

>>1385018
buying 4 new books? depends, really, but probably (unless the order totaled more than $25 of qualifying items, which I really recommend doing if you have the money. You can send his items to his address and the rest to yours)

but 4 new books, that's gotta be at least $24 right? just throw in Product Image
The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (Dover Thrift Editions) or one of those other dollar, two dollar books to get your limit

>>1385036
lol copy paste error.

>>1385036
I'm thinking of getting all 10 books he wanted, since I have a bit of spending money around, they're pretty cheap and I can still sell these books back to Chegg to remake the money

I had recalled last year we were sitting around feeling bitter over not getting anything for Christmas, and I said 'if I had the money, I'd get you something', so I'd like to make good on my word.

>>1385043
Awh, that's sweet! And it would definitely hit the free s&h mark. I was rooting around my wishlist for the cheapest books to get you over, lol, but really I think even 5 or 6 books should do it.

Keep in mind on *some* books Amazon has a 4-for-3 policy (put 4 qualifying books in your shopping cart, you get the cheapest one for free) ... but not all. Anyway that's the only thing I can think of that might affect the price. Anything else?

Depends on where you are. There are nice sites that offer free 'worldwide' shipping like bookdepository (they won't work with all countries, though) and there are places like betterworldbooks that offer cheap worlwide delivery (they've changed it to free recently, but it looks like slightly lower shipping costs are now included in their prices) and ship everywhere.

>>1385277
You may want to enter an address.

C'mon guys, let's all just gift those in the OP. Post their list once you've done it so we know who's been done. Maybe then we can finally let this thread die.

Why does it even have to be a Texan?

The guy I gifted finally got his book yesterday. Not particularly looking for a gift, but I kinda want a postcard from him telling me if he liked it. xD

bump. so no one has gifted the op's lists yet?

Christmas Eve where I live :)

Even though I didn't receive anything, I just want to give a general thanks to everyone who gifted/

Thanks in advance as always. Merry X-Mas Anon!

For those two anons that gifted me in the past, I have your lists bookmarked and have hardly forgotten. Jan. 5th is almost upon us. Maintain your patience. I always pay it back.

Somebody sent me "World War Z" apparently. I was overwhelmed with joy when I opened the package.

I would love to find out who sent me it. They even shelled out for express 2 day shipping so I would get it before Christmas. :3

I'm in the OP :)

http://www.amazon.ca/wishlist/1YQHV3U4LKW9R
Don't put much stock in the priorities: best thing about these threads is sharing literature preferences; it's nice to buy someone a little known book that they may not have bought otherwise.

IF YOU'RE ALREADY IN THE OP WHY ARE YOU POSTING YOUR WISHLIST AGAIN GODDAMNIT I FUCKING HATE THESE THREADS BECAUSE NO ONE WILL LET THEM DIE A NATURAL DEATH THEY KEEP BUMPING THEM UP AND I KNOW IT'S JUST A HANDFUL OF YOU DOING IT

Alright, I'll give this a go. First time on here but I've done similar things to this on a couple other boards. Just ignore the non-book items...

Suggest alternatives, I'm online for the next hour or so.

i support mr assange, but you are just another stupid teenager with a free tibet bumper sticker

>>1389065

I kind of agree with what you say but it's stupid to avoid amazon when it's the easiest and biggest way to give books. It won't really do much anyway.

>>1389070
Not a teenager, I just don't want to use Amazon OK? They make enough money as it is. I've probably spent a few thousand pounds there just in the past few years.

I'm sure there's an alternative out there. I have gifted in the past a few times...

Can you do it with amazon canada? It's, like, different from amazon america.

Problem /lit/? I'm offering to gift books. You just want to engage in a debate about Amazon. My reason for gifting is because a few months ago someone gifted me some books on here and now I have a job I feel like gifting back.

I'll check back in 30 mins - if there's a non-amazon wishlist I'll gift stuff from it. Simple as.

I think leeds oxfam has raised a good point about dependence on one online retailer

Get the Pevear and Volokhonsky version of The Idiot on to your wishlist. It's miles better than the version you got there at the moment. Off to sleep now. Will sort it out in the morning.

>>1389212

Is it? I always thought the Oxford editions had the best explanatory/supplementary notes?

>>1389217
no way dude
Pevear and Volokhonsky are the shit
there war and peace is so much better than my old oxford one

>>1389220

I see! Added. But does it contain footnotes/endnotes etc. as needed?

>>1389223
im not sure about the idiot, but war and peace had a ton of footnotes/endnotes
explained every little thing so well

How do you gift Used books?

I've tried and it didn't work, but I just saw a picture of a third party order, that says it's a gift..

>>1389389

Can't gift used, at least I don't think you can.
Who are you gifting?

You can too gift used. Most sellers wont, but if you're persistent, you can find some that will. Good to know I'm not the only /lit/erate alone on Christmas. I'm being festive by reading "The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test," and drinking a little rum and eggnog.

Reposting for fun.

THERE IS POOR PEOPLE.....
im not realy poor.. i could buy it.. but my parents, dad, keep the money for themselfs...
YES! there is bad parents..
yes.. there is the stinking WORLD where we live in..
there is.. unfortunably.. so be happy to not live in a war country, or pass trought times of hunger..
because.. i saw my mom crying because she didnt had money to buy shoes.. now its all ok.. thanks to god..
so dont think only about u and ur stinkin life, think about the people who are around u..

>>1389647

Your Church has services at midnight?

>>1389666

Oh nvm, time zone thing... (still oddly late though)

Nice trips.... >______________>

>>1389677

Oo, 666 in a post about church. Delightful. I don't go to the most traditional church, anyway. There was a 5:30 service, but my family prefers the late service.
