Book exchange for 10 riyals! :)

Book Exchange for a cause. I couldn't post this in the books groups or the Volunteer group so i'm doing it here. I know its short notice but i hope this helps. Tomorrow i'm having a Quiz and Koffee meet up for all QL'er, go here for more details: http://www.qatarliving.com/node/732842

In light of the typhoon hit Philippines victims, we'll also be having a collection of donating money as per your order. So if you have a drink of 20 riyals you'll donate 20 riyals towards the cause, or more if your willing. To make it more interesting I'd like to have a book exchange where you can bring along a book you'd like to exchange with someone else. You will pay 10 riyals towards the cause and get a book in exchange for it. Seems like a good deal when u think of it as giving a donation and getting something in return at such a small price.

In order to keep track of whose book is going to who i'll make small bookmarks with the book owner's name and phone number that you can use to contact the book owner once your done to return it.

All donation collected will be handed over to SPEED of the QL Volunteer Group as he is the Manager of the group and will have better insight as to where and how to deliver the donation.

I hope i have your support and co-operation in this matter. See you all tomorrow 7.00pm onwards, Coffee beanery opp. Ramada hotel Al Saad.

10 Riyal ?? Holy Duck ...isn't it too much ?

I bloody buy Tin Tin comic book for 2 bucks ...:(

By the way is this only exchange of books or can we exchange something else as well ?

Technically we are not doing anything illegal, think of it as selling an item that belongs to you. No permission really required for that. The book belong to you, what you do with the money is not anyone's problem. Therefore to make it all "legal" everyone donate your books to me(donating items is legal i suppose) and i shall hand them out in exchange for 10 riyals(selling something that belongs to me is also legal) lol so all if fair, then the 10 riyals belongs to me and i will "spend" (give to speed)

There that seems like a legal move hehehehe, ok i need a smoke i'm talking crap!

Smoke, i suggest u talk to Speed about this, because he was explaining to me once that donations cannot be collected without being backed by a Charity organization, so i think u will need to hold the donation on another day so that there is enough time to talk to an organization and get a representative to be there..
