1. I use Maxell,Sony,or TDK normal-bias cassette tapes(90 minutes)for demos,7"s,etc.(I sometimes use high-bias tapes,if they are requested and if I have any available).Please use the same(doesn't have to be one of the brands mentioned above,but please don't use el cheapo brands...you know,the ones that you can buy at CVS for 3 for a dollar).
2. Please do not split or cut songs(if a song does not fit on one side,record it on the second side instead).
3. Please keep a recording on one tape(don't split between two tapes).A recording that's continued on the second side of the same tape is OK(as long as you don't cut or split a song).
4. Please do not leave a recording incomplete(if it doesn't fit in it's entirety,fit it on another tape). I understand you may have incomplete recordings in your collection(ones that are cut),please make me aware if possible(I will inform you if any of mine are incomplete).
5. Please list everything(titles,track listings,etc.) on a seperate piece of paper.Typed or printed out is prefered.Emailing the listings is even better.Do not write on the inlay cards or labels.
6. DO NOT send the cassette cases(keep them,and I'll do the same.Saves on space and postage.).
7. DO send the inlay cards and labels(but remember,leave them blank).
8. Please ship tapes bubble-wrapped,or in a well-padded envelope.
9. If I feel there's something suspicious about a trade proposal,I will ask that you send your tapes first(I do this to protect myself from possible rip-offs).If I do ask you to send your package first,please take no offense,it's just business.If you don't like it,well then,no trade.

   If I contacted you FIRST,then obviously this rule is void(in these cases,I will send my stuff first if you feel I'm not trustworthy.I have no problem with that.)

10. Oh,and one last very important thing...PLEASE DO NOT RIP ME OFF!!!(Because I really hate when that happens.)

I will supply references to anyone who wants them.Although,I assure everyone that I'm no rip-off.References are not required from you.

Shipping:It's appreciated if you send items First Class(within the US)or Airmail(outside the US).For that's how your items will be shipped.(I'm in the US by the way.Duh.)

I'm sorry for the list of rules,but I think most will agree that they are necessary.
