apocalypticbob It has worked great for me so far. When first registering you enter (fair condition) books that you would be willing to part with. You get 3 "starter credits" for the first 9 books you make available (1 credit = 1 book). After that you get 1 credit for each book you ship, and each book you request costs 1 credit. The shipper pays the shipping cost (Typically $1.59 for a single book.) There is no cost to register.
I have shipped off 7 books, received 5, and 3 more books are enroute to me (plus 1 to my nephew). I have been able to fill in some of the "holes" in my collection. Entering books into the system is simple (it uses ISBN), and it will print out the "shipping lable.
By the way, if any of you do decide to join, and you put me (Nickname:MaverickWeirdo) down as the one who recomended the site to you, then I get a bonus credit.
