FAQ's |
Q: | What's a 2:1 trade? |
A: | A 2:1 trade is a trade open to those with nothing to trade. Basically, you send double the BLANK CD-R's needed to burn a show.
For example, for a 2-disc show, you send 4 BLANK CD-R's. I burn 2 for you and keep 2.
You pay for ALL shipping costs! (I pay one way shipping for show for show trades) |
Q: | Why do I have to pay for ALL shipping costs in a 2:1 trade? |
A: | 2:1 trades are BIG FAVORS in the trading community. I want my collection to grow so I prefer show for show trades. However, I understand that there are people with nothing to trade, so I offer 2:1 trades despite the fact that they are time consuming and really not benefical to me. Since so many people contact me for 2:1 trades, I ask that you pay for shipping for two reasons. First of all, I am doing you a favor by practically giving you the show(s) you want because I am only getting a couple of cheap blank CD-R's. Second, I simply can't afford to ship everyone's 2:1 trades.
The only reason why I pay for shipping in show for show trades is because I am getting shows I don't have and show for show trades are ALWAYS an equal split (show for show... discs for discs... shipping for shipping). |
Q: | Can I buy a show from you just this once?!? Please??? |
A: | NO! Didn't you read the FIRST RULE on my list?!? Geez! If you have nothing to trade, look at the 2:1 trade criteria listed above. |
Q: | I am trying to start my bootlegs collection. Can you give me a show? (I hear this one more than you think) |
A: | As much as I'd love to give shows to the fans that want them... I can't afford that. Look at the 2:1 trade criteria listed above... that's the closest it'll get to me giving you a show. |
Q: | Can you send me a show online in mp3 form? |
A: | Nope... sorry. All of my shows are on CD-R. NONE are in mp3 format. I don't have the space to store all of those mp3's on my hard drive. Plus a trip to the post office gives you some fresh air. :) |
Q: | Do you have this show? Or how about that show? Or maybe this show? |
A: | PLEASE UNDERSTAND THAT WHATEVER I HAVE IS LISTED!!! |
Q: | Why do you restrict shows? Geez, you are greedy! (I am sick of hearing this one so READ!) |
A: | I restrict shows for one of the following reasons.
1. The show is an EXTREMELY RARE and/or HIGH QUALITY find so only show for show trades would be fair.
2. The master recorder told me to. (They want people getting the show from them since they recorded it.)
3. Another trader asked me to. (It was a hard find for them.) |
