Steph (angel4492) | 32703 comments Sandra alerted me to the sad news that Book Depository will be closing on 26 April 2023. For more info, you can check out their FAQ page: https://www.bookdepository.com/closure.

As Book Depository was the only free international book shipper I have used, this will impact our Secret Santa exchange. We're not yet sure if we'll host the exchange again this year using another vendor or not. Amazon doesn't make it easy to gift outside of your country, even ebooks. If you have suggestions for other retailers, please share.

Steph (angel4492) | 32703 comments For those interested, I will be posting information regarding our 3rd Annual Elfster Secret Santa Book Exchange soon. We'll be using Blackwell's, who offer free international shipping, in place of BookDepository.
