Welcome to My Trading Post, First things first i'll lay out the prices and other rules. Please Read everything below...so i dont recieve any mail from you with your complaints.
Just Recently i recieved this letter in the mail, i am going to post it for all to read and then explain what it is im charging money for on this site.
"Hi,
My name is ----------. I run a Smashing Pumpkins links site
called --------. I have seen your site and it shows good potential.
I would consider linking to it, but I do have one reservation: the fact
that you charge people for bootlegs. This is widely considered as bad
practice. The only activity apprved by the band is tape trading. Money
should not be involved at all.
I just thought I would mention that."
I AM IN NO WAY CHARGING YOU FOR A BOOTLEG. Let me explain the prices you see below. First $5.00, Five dollars is the charge if you want me to buy you at tape here for $2.00 and then use the extra $3.00 to mail it to you. Second $3.00, Three dollars is the charge if you mail me a tape, this way i will record the songs for you and use the $3.00 to pay for shipping. Last Tape For Tape, tape for tape means you record your songs, i record mine and we each pay for eachother shipping. Now i dont know what it is that im doing wrong here, I'd really like the person who sent me the letter i recieved above to explain why he sent it and again what i am doing wrong. I refuse to buy you(the trader) a tape here with my own money and then turn around and pay for your shipping.
I Provide the Tape
You Provide the Tape
We Trade 1 for 1
$5.00 if i provide
$3.00 if you provide
Each of us pays for the Shipping
Now that you know the Prices, here come the Rules.
1)If i have not traded with you before then i wait until i recieve your money and or tape. Then i mail you what it is you want. If you do not trust me thats your problem but i have traded with others and will list there names and e-mail address on a seprate page so you can ask they if im a good trader.
2)I will not send tapes over seas! This is for american/candian fans only.
3)If you record for me i will only except tapes that are recorded on "Maxell XLII 90 minute" tapes. They are a very good quality tape, if i record for you that will be what you get.
4)At the present time my list contains around 99 rare and close to rare songs, i will not list the quality of them. If you mail me wanting a song and i feel the quality is bad i will tell you, you just have to trust me.
At the present time thats all the rules. Im sure this will grow as i start to tade with people. If you have any proble with any of the rules above tell me iha_eeha@hotmail.com.
