1.  Person who initiates the trade will send first.

2.  Method of packaging is up to the sender as long as it protects the condition of the cards.

My method is probably the easiest: Put as many cards as possible in clear slips and stick them between 2 thin pieces of non-flimsy cardboard.  Special requests for shipping and/or insurance will be considered as long as the price is mutual.

3.  Any damage to the cards sent without prior acknowledgement will not be accepted.  (Frayed edges, dull corners, misprints, stains, faded colors, stabs from sharp objects, etc.)

4.  PLEASE know or have some idea of what cards you want beforehand. 

Some people (ahem) have requested that I look for every single card with a certain villain and other unreasonable requests.  (There are scans for a reason.) I'd like to avoid handling the cards for trade as much as possible so they remain nice and mint-like.

5.  I've stopped selling cards.  This will ensure more options for people who have the cards I want, so we can trade within a certain set.  I will allow trades between different types/sets of cards once I decide that the proposal is reasonable or fair.

6.  For Anime/TV on CD: Any payments should be USD. Sending cash is kinda risky because those sneaky mail people can take it, but if you hide it well, like between pieces of cardboard, it usually isn't a problem.  (That's what I did when I didn't have a bank account/checks/credit card yet.)  Checks are accepted if the cost turns out to be more than $5.00.

7. I'm a member of G.A.B. (Good Traders Against Bad Traders) Here's my page for that.  It'll never be updated, but I've done about 20+ more transactions than what's listed on the page.  If you'd like a list of further references, just e-mail me @ lindam@punkass.com.

Overall, let's just make the trade a clean, fair, and honest transaction. Thanks for reading the rules page, hopefully this clears up any questions you may have had.
