I am going to try and ease back into trading on a limited basis. Don't be offended if I don't write back or respond immediately. As we approach the holidays, I find it easy to get behind. I'll get to as many trades as I can.

1). Be honest, be fair. I am.
2). DAO for live shows. I really don't want a TAO version of a show if a DAO show exists. If your show(s) are TAO, I'd like to know that before I receive them. If you send me a bunch of TAO discs, you can expect to get them back.
3). Be honest, be fair.
4). I trade with Verbatim and Sony discs. Be sure you discuss the type of media you will be using BEFORE we agree to a trade. I don't want store/no name brands.
5). Did I mention being honest and fair?
6). I don't sell squat. I can be persuaded to do B&P's in a limited capacity to get someone started. Groveling helps. Please, be reasonable and don't ask me to do a 35 disc B&P for you. I'll do as many as 10 discs to help someone get started.
7). I don't have, use, send or require cover art. Some setlists, when not previously entered in the database, may be required.
8). My ratings are loose interpretations of what I hear. Compare my ratings to those of others listed in the database to aid you in making your choices. I will do a review when requested, but otherwise you are responsible for sound quality.
9). I don't rate show quality, only sound quality.
10). Minor flaws do not upset me. I don't recognize inconsequential pops, ticks or other small anomalies. FYI, TAO is NOT a minor flaw.
11). You initiate the trade, you send first. I'll send shortly after receiving.
12). Good communication and a quick turnaround are essential to a good trade.
13). Do not write on or attach anything to the discs. Include artist/venue/date information inside sleeve. Make sure I can distinguish which disc is which when they arrive.
14). I apply, and expect, all the normal trade protocols. If I get less than that, so will you.
15). Got questions? Ask them before we get started.

The type of discs normally traded are UNofficial recordings and may contain flaws. I don't expect them to be perfect and neither should you.
