Help Center - What are the Top 100s?

Search Terms:

The Top 100s are the top 100:

  • Swappers (the 100 swappers who have the most successfully completed outgoing requests)

  • Posted books (the 100 ISBNs that have been posted the most often)

  • Requested books (the 100 ISBNs that have been requested most often)

  • Wished-for books (the 100 ISBNs that have been added to the most Wish Lists)

  • Referring Members (the 100 members who have referred the most new members to the club)

on PBS. You can view the Top 100s by three different time periods: last 7 days, last 30 days, and all time  ("all-time Top 100 swappers" is the default view on the Top 100s page).  You can view the Top 100s by clicking Top 100s under Community in the main toolbar at the top of any page on the site.  Top 100s do not include Box-O-Books transactions.

Why use the Top 100s:

  • The lists let you see what's happening clubwide:
    • Who's sending out the most books
    • What books are getting posted the most often
    • What books are getting requested (Wish List offers or regular requests) the most often
    • What books are being put on Wish Lists by the most members
    • You can even do some fancy analysis:
      • for example, if 100 people put a specific ISBN on their Wish Lists last week, but 68 people were able to request a copy of that book, you can tell how fast that Wish List is moving, and decide if you want to get on board!
      • You can compare the Top 100s for the week from week to week, and see how things are changing.
    • Who's having success at getting others to join and Post their books--you can PM and ask how they do it!
