1.If we haven't traded before (unless I contact you), you must send first, no exceptions. I do not plan on getting ripped off and if you trade with me, you will not. 2. Aways use good CDR's such as Hewlett Packard, Fuji, Maxell, Memorex, Sony, Imation or TDK. I do not accept 'no name' CDR's as they are shit. Of particular concern are any I will, of course, send your discs on one of the above CDRs. Please, do not use anything but the above brands of CDRs as the technology of burning CDRs is not totally reliable as it is. 3.Always burn your CDs 'disc at once' (DAO). Anything *but* smooth track transitions, you must tell me before we trade! 4. Do not write anything on the CDR's. Use a piece of paper & write the date, location & source info & simply put it in the CD-holder. Do not put tape on a CDR --> ever, as well. 5. If there is ever a problem with a disc(s), you must send it back to me & I will investigate what the problem(s) are. Then, I will send out the fixed issues. As long as the discs play correctly then my job is done; I'm trading you discs - copying them is only extra stuff. If for some reason you cannot copy a disc, find an alternate method of copying it via another software program. I do that all the time. If there is a skip, gap or whatever which is different than my copy, I will (of course) send it back ASAP; after you tell me where the discrepancy is. If the discrepancy is different than my disc, Ill replace it. I try & note every issue on the item description (CD pages) but can't always get everything on the first time. You take this risk trading in general...I know no trader can honestly say they've identified every issue on every disc. I do my best though. 6. I do not want nor do I accept MP3 sourced CDR's. I can't even tell you how much that pisses me off as MP3's contaminate the trading pool, mostly have innacurate information & are less audio quality. Not to even take into consideration the fact that the taper, who pre-planned to record the show (purchasing & understanding the equipment, sneak & record the equipment into the venue successfully, master it properly & then trade it out) goes completely without any sort of recognizition. As for the MP3 issue, If you think you can fool me with bullshit, you cannot. Do not try. All I have to do, if I have a doubt, is check the WAV compression for scientific, deductive reasoning & for inductive reasoning, all I have to do is listen to it. But all that is a waste of time. 7. Please send me as much information you have on a show. Taper, equipment, location (where the taper stood), venue, etc. I Cannot currently burn DVD's. I'm after: Tool A Perfect Circle QOTSA The Mars Volta Radiohead Theyre the major ones, but make an offer and we'll see how things go. James.
