My Trading Rules
| No US trades | Because of very strict Belgian customs policy, I can no longer trade with people from North or South America, nor Canada. My apologies. |
| CD-R's | Only quality cd-r's please, no 'no-names' or very cheap brands. I currently use Taiyo Yuden (same as Sony and Fuji). |
| Sound Source | I do NOT accept bootlegs taken from mp3 or any other compressed file format. Only copies from the real thing. All bootlegs in my list are copies of original recordings (at least, if nobody fooled me ;-) ). I only trade cd-r's, no audio- or video tapes. |
| DAO | I insist that you copy Disc-At-Once, so without gaps between tracks. |
| No Writing | I prefer that you don't write on the cd-r labels. |
| Covert Art | Not included, but Title, Place, Date and Setlists can be found on this site. |
| Packaging | I don't send along jewelcases, and don't expect you to do so either. I wrap each cd carefully in paper before sending them in a padded envelope. Packages are mailed with priority. |
| Broken CD-R's | If a CD-R is broken on arrival, I'll replace it immediately or at the next trade, as you wish. I hope you do the same. |
| Trading Tip | Copies which have errors (clicks, jumps,...) are annoying for both the receiver and the person who has sent them by mistake (I know). Because listening to copies all over again is often impossible, another trader gave me this good advice: the programme "CD Vergleich" rapidly compares the copy with the source disc, indicating if and where errors occured. It can be downloaded for free here, and it can at least reduce the risk that bad discs will be sent. |
Thank you everyone for all the nice trades !
